At Fernando's request, I'll keep a weekly (daily is a bit too much) record of my weight loss to keep me motivated and on track. As of last week, I was 171.5 Lbs. but I had my doubts as the batteries were running really low on the weight scale :-) Anyway, I'm not sure where I'm at this week because the weight scale finally died today, boooo!
Some of you might have seen my instrument of torture before. Meet Greta, my hybrid bike, which has become somewhat of a permanent fixture on my trainer.
Greta will soon be replaced on the Trainer by Lance, my trusty 11 year-old road bike. I called it Lance because it's a Trek 5200, the same bike frame Lance Armstrong used to win his first three Tour de France. Little did I know back then that "It's Not About The Bike". Actually, it's all about your lungs, heart and legs and if those aren't in shape, there's no bike on this planet that will help you ride faster, unless you have one of those electric-powered bikes (what's the point of those anyways?).
Ok, enough rambling! I finished this week with five (5) workouts completed as of today (Friday, April 15, 2011). Planing on doing a tempo ride tomorrow for three hours, but according to the weather forecast it looks like it will be another trainer workout.
Take the first step, get off the couch and be active!
