I did intervals on my road racer. It's 7 sets by 4-minute sprints with 1-minute rest between sets. I rode the bike instead of running, because there was slight discomfort in both of my Achilles tendons. I'm expecting a race this weekend, and I didn't want to take any risk. Cycling causes little pressure on the painful parts while allowing cardio to be stimulated maximally through fast repeats. I was a bit out of practice at first, but soon felt comfortable on it.
The training was pretty satisfying. It was a good cardio workout. I stimulated my thighs quite a bit without further damaging my Achilles tendons. After coming home from the training, I had fresh bonito to fuel my body with protein need to repair muscle, and iron lost in perspiration.
What is my aging mind-body capable of doing? This simple curiosity is the main engine of my self-expression. Looking forward to sharing with you my fitness endeavors, my nature explorations, language learning, cooking activities, and so on. 『老い』と向かい合いながら人間は、どこまで体力・知力を維持向上できるか?そんな好奇心をもとに、体力維持、英語力の維持・向上、料理、自然探索など様々な分野において、自分史の記録としてブログを書いてます。(チャンネル管理者のYou Tube Channelもヨロシクお願いします/Come visit my You Tube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCRYRdNJ7mJ5bWcrl5yC2FA?view_as=subscriber)
