Wednesday
I'm back in the groove again... Something a little odd happened today though, I was in spinning, keeping my HR between 145-155, and I noticed that as I increased load, which forced my RPMs down, it also dropped my HR, and as I dropped load, but increased my RPMs, my HR would remain constant, or even raise. The only thing that happened that even made remote sense was that under extremely heavy load, (the type you have to put all your body weight on a pedal) my HR would raise. HMMMMM, something is a foot at the Circle K.... Anyway, as I spin with different people, I think I am getting the idea that this class (Weds 0930) is more of a power workout. I guess that would make sense, as much time as I have spent in the gym lifting heavy, I guess my muscles are used to that, but the higher RPM less stress causes my muscles some confusion, resulting in the elevated HR. Well, it's an idea I guess, feel free to comment!!! Anyway, wrapped up with a quick treadmill mile, 8min09sec. I'm building back up to where I am running a 5k after my spinning sessions by the time the race comes around.
