90 minute indoor aerobic ride: Spinerval "Base Builder"

Tonight at Cycle Concepts with my brother Nick, I talked Dave into doing a long aerobic workout instead of a heavy Big Gear workout.  After 90 minutes I was ready to get off the bike.  Alot of spins at 90+ RPM at around 70% HRMax.  Regressive sets starting at 5 minute X 4 with 1 minute rest, 4 minutes X 4 with 45 seconds rest; 3 minutes X 4 with 30 seconds; and 2 minutes X 4 with 15 seconds rest.  Each set the gearing got easier and the cadence got higher. Finished with a 45 second progressive burst in small chain 15 rear - 80 > 90 > 100 % effort then 15 second rest X 4.  Wow! Felt the edge of anaerobic threshold near the end.  Not sure how much of a recovery ride this was, but was suppose to be. 

At past premavara for dinner, but only ate about 1/2 of it.  Nichole ate the rest when I got home. The pasta was well made, just not as good as mine or Paul's Pasta in Groton.

Tomorrow is looking more like Cynergy Night with each passing minute.  My leg are fatigued and need the ab workout.

Keepin on!
