1 hour stationary upright bike

I rode even harder today than I did Thursday.  10 mins at 12, 10 mins at 14, 10 mins at 16, 4 mins at 18, 1 min at 20, 10 mins at 16, 10 mins at 14, and 5 mins at 12.

After the first 20 mins, my HR stayed around 170 maxing at 175.  If my leg still feels good tomorrow morning after how hard I pushed today, I will do the happy dance.  And my prediction is, I'll be dancing.

You worked it hard! It's tough to get my HR above 150 on the bike, but no problem out there running. Here's to the Happy Dance!

WOW! That is hard workout and excellent effort! Can't wait to hear about the happy dance. I will do the happy dance for you with my stiff legs! :)

Leg feels great today! Thanks for all the encouragement.

You need to have RivertonPaul post that happy dance for all to see :)!

Your ability to push your heart rate is so impressive.

nice job Rhett - glad the leg is holding up well

From Smooth on Mon, Jul 26, 2010 at 17:22:14 from 174.23.218.43

Happy dance, yes?

From Mack on Mon, Jul 26, 2010 at 20:56:54 from 71.111.186.66

Nice job Rhett. Glad to hear things are getting better. Did you use a hr monitor or just check it manually. Now I have got to check mine on the bike. I have always just kind of gone by perceived effort.

From Rhett on Tue, Jul 27, 2010 at 12:11:18 from 74.32.211.9

Thanks Mack, the bike has a HR monitor on it. All you have to do is hold onto the handles and you get constant HR feed back to help you know how hard you are working.
