Post Rest Day....

Lost some of the weight I gain on Saturday, but not all.  Following a complete rest day, my legs feel great, I feel like I have gained some fitness back, although a TON left to go.  However, on a positive note, I think there is definitely progress.

When working out today, I can remember first beginning on the machines and barely being able to get on the machines, let alone do three circuits...Walking up and down the stairs was an Extreme sports event.  Today I was able to complete three circuits of back/chest/shoulders with abs and stretching no problem.  My heart rate never went over 100 bts/min. .  I almost extended my workout and added another small circuit to the routine on the universal machine, but thought that would take away from my ride this afternoon.  A good feeling.

I used the stretching belt again today which enabled me to really dig deep into those hard to get muscles.  As I become more flexible, I notice my back is much better, no soreness..  I have a ton more weight to loose in my stomach and chest area.  Just keep poking at it, and it will come off.

Going to get in a ride today, this afternoon, not sure where yet, but hopefully 20 miles or so.  No speed or elevation expectations, just miles in the saddle.  Some call this base training, I call it burning fat...hopefully!
