AM: 50min spin PM: 50min spin I figure that while I am injured, if I put in the same amount of time on the bike that I would have running had I been healthy at a similar HR (I don't run with a HRM but I have checked several times and it always falls 120-140) I will have lost the least amount feasable. I hate the bike and yet I notice how much faster my legs recover after a spin than after a run. Directly after a run my legs feel tired but okay and then for the next 5 hours/longer if im on high mileage. Directly after a spin my legs feel horrible but then 1-2hrs after they feel fine again. Funny. I guess it is because of the impact difference. One thing that never hurts me while running is my butt and that hurts at least the whole time I am biking if not after as well.
