Tanner

9am break
50 push ups
50 deep knees....less pain today than in 5 years

Back to work break is over at 915

Treadmill ascending incline intervals: 35minutes.

Legs and triceps with weights. Hit 225 on deadlift x2.

Shutdown week is kicking my butt - no workouts since Saturday.

Saturday's hike was 5.5 miles with 1730ft elevation with a 45lb pack. Good stuff.

Looking forward to wrapping this week up and getting back to my routine.

5 mile brisk walk with the missus.... no significant elevation changes. Moderate workout.

I "rolled" my IT bands last night to try to address the knee issue that came up on my ride the other day. Ouch! Certainly released some stress/energy from that area. The next ride should be informative as to whether that was the issue. Also did a bunch of stretches and some core work.

What bike you riding Jeff?

Did lower body/core today. Can't do back squats with a barbell (tweaks the knee) so I compensate by doing other stuff:

Warmup: 5 minutes on bike followed by a set each of hamstring curls, squat machine, and glute kick-back machine.

Goblet squats with KBs, 28 kg x 12, 32 kg x 12, 36 kg x 10 twice.

Linear hack squat machine, 140 x 12, 180 x 12, 200 x 10

Prone hamstring curls, 135 x 12, 145 x 12, 150 x 10

Glute kickback machine, 125 x 12 (each side) 140 x 12, 150 x 12

Calf raises, 150 x 18, 155 x 15, 160 x 12

Leg raises on Roman chair, 2 sets of 12, 2 sets of 20

Balance/lower leg exercise on BOSU ball; one-legged dumbell flies and ankle rotations.

Back squat machine, 4 sets of 12, starting with 3 then 4-5-6 45-lb plates on each side, super-setted with body weight deep squats on BOSU ball. 6 plates on each side is as much as I've seen anyone in the gym load on that thing, although most serious squatters use the racks and barbells.

Specialized Roubaix Expert, couple years old. Put new tires on her today!

As it turned out I added a 30-mile ride to the walk today. It was a knee-check. Fingers crossed, the problem the other day might have been IT band....... never felt a twinge today. Then again it was only 30 miles.

Nice. Envious. Wish there was more interesting hiking near here. It's all jungle. A path through a jungle gets old. Gotta head east a couple hours before it gets interesting.

5-mile walk this morning, might rally for a ride late. Did a paltry few pull-ups last night. Working my upper body in slowly. I finally healed my shoulder, don't want to re-injure it.

We probably won't get all the way to the top, still too much snow up there.

Climbed the stairs in Castle Rock carrying 50 pounds in my Kifaru. Felt way better than a few months ago with no weight. Climbing around up on Colorado Mines Peak tomorrow. Hope to see some bighorns. Then rest up shooting prairie dogs on Sunday.

You going out to Deer Trail?

What size tire you flippin'?

Bailed from work after a few hours after feeling a serious call to see some trees and rocks and stuff. 6 miles, +3000' vertical, felt great to get out during the week.



Tanner

Beautiful country, Tanner.

Rode 26 miles with a buddy. Two long steep climbs. Great ride. My knee was pain-free so fingers crossed, it is looking like it was an IT band issue.

So, 5 miles by hoof and 26 miles by wheel today.
