[Closed] Not recovering- STW coaches/couch GP's assemble

chilled76 · 2019-04-03T12:04:24Z

Morning all, I'm recently finding myself aching for a really long time after riding, my quads/calves/hams etc just don't seem to want to recover. Even walking up stairs is hurting. I've not done so much riding that I feel should warrant this and wondered if anyone else has experienced this in the past? My riding since Christmas has looked like this (reverse chronological order) Week log runs starting Monday- Finish Sunday Haven't ridden yet this week as I'm so sore- considering local steady chain gang tonight. Did 7 hours last week (5 of which was on Saturday- Evans ride it south wales) Previous week 9h Previous week 6h Previous week 3.5h- Recovery week. Previous week 5h Previous week 8h Previous week 4h Previous week 4h Previous week 4h Previous week 2h- Had a cold Previous week 5h Previous week 2h- Felt knackered so had a very easy week (assumed residual left from festive 500) Previous week 5h Previous week 20h- Festive 500 Before this I hadn't really ridden much in December, maybe 8 hours total. I've got the BHF ride in the peaks this Saturday, having not ridden since Saturday when I did the Evans ride my legs feel still really aching and sore. Advice:Q1) Do I do some easy stuff like local chaingang tonight to get legs moving again or just rest until Saturday? Q2) Any ideas why I am aching so much? - considering seeing the G.P. feels like my body isn't repairing itself properly! Cheers

Cheers for that- I have been wanting to look at HRV. How does the app work- does it link with a Garmin strap etc from your phone or something?

I'll have a download of it, cheers for that!
