Three out of two days this weekend on the trainer for a grand total of 2.5 hours of spinning. The basement torture begins.
I need to find some motivation while in the saddle. Watching old races that I've seen a million times isn't going to cut it. Was looking at The Soiled Chamois' review and Cycling News' review of Sufferfest Training Videos. They look good, look different and might be what I need to mix things up on the trainer this winter. Anyone want to go splitz on the videos? Maybe a few people making it dirty cheap?

My arse, after two days back on the saddle, was sore, red and swollen like a baboon's backside. |
Spinning, spinning, spinning going nowhere fast. |
My goal, for now anyway, is to get on the trainer three days a week for about an hour or so each session. Mixed with strength, flexibility training at the gym two to three times a week (on trainer days) and about three skis a week should help with the weight loss and help keep my fitness base intact until I can get out on the road.
