And 2 other notes from the Guinea Pig......

......Training Program(aka GPTP).

First: Squash is not the best game(yes, the game - not the food) to play for cycling. Although high energy and requiring extreme quickness around the court, that little ball kills when it hits you in the head or legs or anywhere. And the following day, you feel like a slug on the bike. So, just wanted to share that little piece of knowledge with you.

Second: If you wanna be slow, train slow. If you wanna be fast, it helps to go fast at least a little bit on the bike each week/month. Again, this goes hand-in-hand with the "bike slug" concept of training. Wanna feel like a slug - train like a slug. Brilliant! (Yes, I know - all you LSDers are gonna be bitchin' at me - but hey, try it out and see what happens!).

Next up for review: How does commuting to work in a 39x25 twice per day aid in recovery and caffeine detoxification??? Stay tuned to find out!
