Winter Training Time

I'm in week 16 with month 4 of this effort winding down and it will be time to reset goals and make some new ones. Although last week looked like my progress was stalled, it appears things may be looking up now. I just started keeping a log of everything I eat and I think by forcing myself to calculate calorie/carb/protein and fat consumption I may be able to improve my nutrition.

Saturday night's session on the trainer looked pretty decent. Not a record but good enough, 190 watts average for the entire ride. If I stay focused I may still be able to hit my goal of sub-200 lbs by my birthday.

Riding the KK has been going well enough that I should think about doing some structured workouts to improve power. Maybe 2 x 20s or PIs at least once or twice each week. I should also increase the ride volume a bit. 5 days may be stretching things so pushing the mileage out to 25 from 20.

More on that subject this Friday.
