Today I went to the gym and did the Speed cycle session 3 (‘S3’) for 30 minutes.
Level 8
10 minute warm up – 90 rpm+
30 second accelerations – up to 115 rpm
2:30 mins steady – 90 rpm+
I did the 3 minute sets 6 times, then cooled down with 2 minutes at 80rpm
Total: 8.5 miles in 30 minutes, 350 calories.
Then I did upper weights and abs.
