Leg strength exercises. Using the ball for squats, pushups adn ab work is great. My legs are getting stronger !! For squats I put the exercise ball on the wall and lean on it and then do squats. 4-5 sets until burn out. I like using the large exercise ball because if gives me support (6’5″) and I can work with it. In the morning I did a 6.5 mile sprint on the bike. As fast as I can go. Tonight I will run 5.6 miles. After tonight’s run, I will add two more miles on two the run. 8 miles is the new goal. I am getting up early on Saturday to go to the West Orange trail to do the 8 mile run. They have good markers there so I can track my time.
I am not following the training guide 100% just because of time, but I am getting workouts in where I can. Its been a busy couple weeks.
I have not seen any scientific evidense that shaving your legs will make you a faster athlete, but I did that last night. I used an electric razor and I have to say, I have good looking calves.
