Tuesday, Nov. 22, 2011.....Start of vo2 max wko's

Well this is week 9/20 of my OutSeason plan with Endurance Nation.  This week starts what is known as our VO 2 Max workouts mixed with some FTP work.  For me by far the hardest but most productive 6 weeks !!!!

Yesterday I was still very sore from the weekends activities.  A training partner and I decided to throw in a swim and get the lower body and abdominal muscles done.  The swim went great we worked on staying in the front quadrant for several hundred yards then concentrated on rolling from side to side leading with the hips/obliques and allowing our body to follow.  Overall great swim.  Ended with 15x100's.  Total yards 2500.

We then decided to crush the lower body and we moved everything I think we could find to include: squats, lunges, hamstrings, quads, adductor, abbductor, and calf muscles.  This was followed up by abdominals to include: push outs, sitted chairs, crunches, and obliques.  For sure thought the following days would be hurtful but again I was wrong.

Concentrated yesterday on full filling my calorie requirements and being damn sure I was hydrated.  I am sure 99.99999% of the time I am very dehydrated.

Woke up this am filling great and ready to get this bike and run wko done.  The bike wko was to be 60 minutes and include 10 minutes of on time at 120% of my current FTP which on the trainer is 220 watts.  Therefore my target is 264 watts.  I will post the numbers below but just so you don't get confused it went like this.  1:30 at 120% then 1:30 at 60% (off time to be targeted at 60%) then 1:30 at 120% and 1:30 and 60%, then 2:00 at 120% and 2:00 at 60%.  This was repeated times 2 to equal ten minutes.  My goal is to build my VO2 Max and be able to hold it for 5 minutes at a time.

We then took a two minute break and hit 15 min and goal was to not go below 85%  of FTP.  Then 4 min at 100% of FTP, back to 15 min at .85%.  As you can see there was a lot of work to be done in one hour.  When the hour hit I was only 2.6 miles from 20 miles so decided to add a little extra.

Overall I was very happy cause I ended the wko with a Intensity Factor of .93 and over 100 TSS points.

The bike wko was then followed up with a brick run of 20 minutes at my EP and then 5xup hill strides.

VO 2MAX does the body good!!!!!!!

Still needing to be done regarding my wko's for the day was a shoulder and lats.  Took a power nap and off I went.  Actually had the best workout today and felt rather rested during each of the lifts.  I have been having some bilateral shoulder pain when in the aero position for some time so need to get my arsh to Kyle and have a sitting for positioning.
