Strong trainer ride. 5 minute warm-up then 10x2' hard at 90+cadence followed by 1' easy, then 3x5' hard with 2' easy...then warm down.
Morning weights. All upper body, no legs. Still have residual soreness from Sunday's weights so kept the weight low and reps high. Lots of abs and jump rope sets mixed in. Good solid sweat.

Spin Class. Though this instructor mixes it up in terms of workouts, his goal is punishment. I enjoyed the pain and I have dead legs now. I need some more of these high-intensity workouts.

Trainer Ride. Legs still a little sore from the last two days of running/weights.
November 14
Difficult, high intensity. Started with 5 minutes jump rope straight into 14 pull-ups, 40 push-ups and 50 lunges with no rest b/t sets, repeat. Then into supersets of multiple back/chest exercises, tricep/bicep exercises, shoulders/back exercises, with lunges/squats after each superset...and then 4 minutes of jump rope every 12-14 minutes to keep HR up. Finished up with some single-leg leg presses on the sled. I had planned to ride spin bike for an hour after this but I was toast. Not doing weights at that intensity for 3 weeks I feel the drop off in recovery b/t supersets.
Morning stretch. 15 minutes of the bike followed by some stretching of hamstrings and hips.
