Week In Review 9/22 - 9/28/14

Not a high activity week for me, between work and life I let some miles slip through my hands and came up with a bit less mileage than I had hoped for. Not a good enough excuse so the next update should be better.

Anyways down to the numbers this week:

Miles: 81
Elevation: 1407 feet
Hours: 5hr 2min

I have been working on cadence by feel. I currently have no cadence monitor, but am working on getting one. I wish someone made one that would sync up with my phone (Galaxy S3) but so far I have had no luck locating one. If anyone knows of anyone making a cadence monitor that will sync up please let me know, otherwise it will be a bit before I can afford to get a Garmin unit plus monitors.

Currently saving up for a trainer so I can get some indoor miles when the weather gets too rough to ride. I know I should tough it out and ride in the weather but lets be real here, there are some days it just won't happen and it also opens up the option to get in some training when time is short and I need to stay close to home for one reason or another.

Oh yeah, I have been tracking my diet closely using MyFitnessPal which Strava will export to and count my exercise against my caloric intake. Still dialing some things in and have been in a caloric deficit pretty consistently, but I think I have that dialed in a bit better. Eating mostly fruit through the morning and into the afternoon really makes caloric intake a challenge, but when I am under I have no hunger or loss of energy at all because I am constantly eating throughout the day.

Well dinner is ready so until next time keep it rubber side down
