New avenues for weight training and running.
It’s the return to work for me after a nice 15
-day break. Some people take a longer break depending on Cycling back their needs and the season they’re doing.
Up to 5 weeks, like Thibault
PINOT, for example! There’s an excellent article in the team about the break and the return to work from professionals on this subject. We understand better why it’s so important to.
Cycling back take a break above all
not to be afraid of it! (F.Grappe’s great argument telegram data on the human body’s memory). Personally, and after 10,000
km traveled this year, these 15 days of break seem like a good compromise to me. Since my arrhythmia problems
at the end of 2010, this is the first time I’ve taken such a long break. I’ve done sports
slowly in other years for a few weeks, but never without doing anything. I’m
really noticing the difference between taking 5 to 6 days off and 2 weeks off! It’s the first few days that are the hardest
, then it gets better. Cycling bigorexia is fading, and it’s
even becoming pleasant to not think about it anymore. It must be said that the snow and cold
that arrived in the region were the trigger. The one I was waiting
for to really break! If we look at the load since October, we
still notice a clear drop in November, then a stop over the
last 15 days.
Cycling break and just 3 hours of additional activities (light running + surfing/snowshoeing), to get some fresh air.
In short, it should allow for some regeneration. The nights are
excellent, by the way; I’ve rarely slept so well. Maybe a sign too!
The beginnings of a return to work a few days ago
Impossible to resist the snow! And for the voice heard the recovery, it’s in PPG mode that we must attack! As a reminder, you can go see my post from last year where I had already argued my preparation and the benefits of the break . Since we have to change our routines, I am tackling this
year the current trend: bodybuilding with heavy loads in
endurance sports. Long reluctant, I must say that the numerous interventions
on the subject during the last coaches’ seminar in Bourges that I
attended, finally convinced me to try. You just have to know what you
are getting into at the start. Like all training stimuli outside of cycling, you lose quickly if you stop training. So you will have to do it all year long as a reminder!
Because strength is an extremely volatile quality and 3 be numbers months of preparation will be lost
in 3 weeks, if you stop the activity.
