Now just recover for a couple/few days, easy efforts, spinning on the bike, and you'll be good to go.Akihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430651087205849350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36139180.post-75209144119204893402010-02-09T13:56:55.784-05:002010-02-09T13:56:55.784-05:00funny enough, i now know what you meant by fatigue...funny enough, i now know what you meant by fatigue not letting your heart rate climb. on sunday my body was so beat from the rides during the previous week that no matter what i would do, my heart rate wouldnt get within 30 bpm of max.Yanielhttp://www.yanielcantelar.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36139180.post-25577602199097604212010-01-31T20:23:09.716-05:002010-01-31T20:23:09.716-05:00You're looking lean and mean aki!You're looking lean and mean aki!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36139180.post-9846933595181403252010-01-31T19:52:59.539-05:002010-01-31T19:52:59.539-05:00K - I think my HR funk was due to fatigue, the sho...K - I think my HR funk was due to fatigue, the shock in weather, weight loss, etc etc.<br /><br />Y - the HR thing has to do with fatigue. If I'm really fatigued, my HR refuses to go up. No matter what happens, before my HR goes up my lactic acid builds up and then boom, I'm done. So my HR doesn't go up but my perceived effort is high.<br /><br />When I'm not fit, my HR soars with every effort. That would be the other problem. I can't use that excuse right now.Akihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430651087205849350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36139180.post-35708587880638300382010-01-31T17:44:20.389-05:002010-01-31T17:44:20.389-05:00as a pretty big newbie here the heart rate thing i...as a pretty big newbie here the heart rate thing is confusing to me. if you're tired/fatigued wouldn't the heart rate jump up quickly? when i'm not feeling too well and go for a ride i find that my heart rate climbs to ridiculous levels at even the slightest effort. on days i'm not up to par, even a short sprint will put my heart rate well past my max.<br /><br />or is it that your body just doesnt want to put out the effort needed to get the heart pumping harder in the first place?<br />thanksyanielhttp://www.yanielcantelar.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36139180.post-30435334634494365362010-01-30T17:08:39.842-05:002010-01-30T17:08:39.842-05:00"I now lack 25 to 30 pounds of mass, and that..."I now lack 25 to 30 pounds of mass, and that's pretty significant when trying to blast down the side of a big hill."<br /><br />I would assume you are just starting to train outside, for the season Aki. I would think your low heart rate is just your system shock, at the beginning of your base. If you have knocked off the 25-30 lbs., then you are burning through the fat reserve, and will soon be into the burning of muscle, depending on what/how much you are eating. As the saying goes, never leave the table full, but hungry. You get used to it; when to stop eating for the day, how much, what? Like a little game for your head. <br /><br />As you stated before, you are now comfortable riding in the tuck - kinda of the old new body shape. Awesome, and the pic shows it. Keep it up<br /><br />That climb is beautiful, the riding and the clearing of your head - well worth the trip.<br /><br />If you want something sweet, drink a diet coke/pepsi during your bonk, tricks your body every time into thinking it is eating a snickers bar...this has always worked during my long rides and when i need a sugar binge.<br /><br />Sorry to obsess about the weight, but when you are cutting into muscle instead of fat you will feel it. Enjoy it. What you gain, will outweigh what you lose. good luck.<br /><br />post some mileage will ya !<br /><br />KevinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
