Today is day two of the climbing boot camp, I was unable to get out to ride due to thunderstorms, so I did "Cyclo-Spin class number 1" it basically hits what I would have hit on the hills doing super spins. I could really see where my technique needs work (I guess we all can use improvement), when I was doing some of the spinning with one leg, I could feel when I was not spinning a circle the dead spot was very obvious. I also noticed that I was able to spin faster with less effort when I had good form.
All in all it was a good (sweaty) work out. Only 35 days left till the Tour of the Catskills, and regardless of how I do I am learning about myself and really loving it.
On a side note, at work I have noticed how my fitness caries over to my life off the bike. I am able to get into positions (I'm an industrial electrician and sometimes I work in very odd contorted positions depending on what part of the machine I am trying to get at) and stay there for long periods of time, where before I would have to get out get back to normal and go back in. A few of my co workers made some comments about my flexibility (but I will keep this G rated)
