I tried a training workout thing yesterday evening. It was the SST (med) – sweet spot training apparently.
I found the 10 min warm up and warm down a bit tedious, but I guess it’s probably best to do them. My normal warm down is about a 3 minute pootle.
Initially I didn’t think it was asking me to work hard enough, but my legs were pretty whacked by the end. Weirdly, my heart rate stayed quite low for the duration (probably bounced around 143-148) with a peak of just over 150; normally the average is high 150s with a peak of high 170s.
I think I’ll probably have a proper look through them & try to fit in one a week based around where I see my weaknesses.
Oh, and scaredypants gave me a ride-on! Thanks for that, it was appreciated but by the time I worked out how to reply I seemed to have missed the opportunity!
