I was planning on getting up early Tuesday morning (today) for a good long cycling session, but when the time came this morning, I decided to sleep in.  Doone and the kids are coming home today, and I figured it might be my last time to sleep in for a while.  I'm sure another rest day will be good for my leg anyways.

1 hour upright stationary bike.  I pounded it hard the full hour. I kept my HR between 160 and 170 which is tough to do on the bike.  I wanted to give my leg a good test.  It did not hurt at all, but as I've come to find out, the true test is how it will feel tomorrow morning.

I was a bit apprehensive about getting out of bed this morning, wondering if yesterday's hard cycling was going to cause some pain in my tibia, but I was excited when I finally got out of bed and still had no pain, so I got ready and headed to the gym for some weight training.

Full body weights including some light seated calf raises.  Boy have my calves gotten weaker as I have not done any exercises that work the calves for the last 2 months.

Abs and Core.

Tomorrow I'll do another intense bike ride, and if all is still pain free, I'll try out the elliptical next week some time.

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.
