2010's injury? Check
Those of you out there that are getting jealous of the fact that I have trained so much will probably be happy now. I fear that my träningsvärk may actually be an injury since it is not going away. And when you become a gubbe, headling takes longer and longer.
My pain is in the quads (lår) but just above the knee and I know that this is precisely the place that hurt during and after spinning on Monday. And since then I have tortured it with leg presses and 70 minutes of hill intervals. Duh. Then last night I did some very very lugnt riding on my trainer with no resistance for 10 minutes. I thought that it might be that I needed to stretch things back into place by using it properly. Nope. That hasn't worked either.
So it looks like I get some rest now which is good since I have a busy week of work ahead of me. In a way, spinning at such a high resistance is silly because we have an invention called gears. If it gets hard, you change gears. And if the hill is so steep that you need to kill your legs just to get up, I guarantee that it will be faster to jump off the bike and run up.
