Snowed in!!

Well so much for a couple of days of snow and back to it eh!!

More ice more snow and back into the shed for the same session as i did on Wednesday this has thrown my training schedule completely out of the window but in times like these when a hint of creativity comes in and of course not to panic and feel confident in what you have already done.

Most club level cyclists tend to panic and try to train more and fit extra into there schedule,this is of course the wrong thing to do so providing you have trained consistently for a couple of months reducing the volume for a week will do you no harm whatsoever it allows the body to adapt and for the training process to come fully on board.

Adaptation is a key part of any training schedule as the body never fully gets the benefit of the training you have been doing so far this week even though its been the rack the sensations i have been getting are quite positive so can't wait for the 1st of March when i will be doing the Banbury star hardriders time trial a 23.5 mile hilly event that takes you down sunrising hill and back up again so should be really interesting.
