I'm definitely interested in losing weight and couldn't really care how fast I ride. I'm just unable at this time to sustain several days of riding for 2 hours each one and one day of rest doesn't seem to be enough. I'm not eating during my rides and only drink water. Trying to follow the low carb plan which I've gotten pretty good for the most part, but have yet to nail precisely for a prolonged time. I'm gluten free and now decided to go dairy free as well, although not yet 100% but almost. Not sure what nuts I can or cannot eat, some days I eat a lot of fruit, some days very little. My meals are mostly meat/fish and salad/vegetables although I'm tempted to add hummus at night. Probably still eating quantities that are too large...
Anyway, I've read Taubes and will give Sisson a good reading as well as I just skimmed it. I just wanted to get a sense for how best to address the feeling of weariness after riding several days in a row; is it just lack of conditioning and this will come over time? I ride almost all the time at 70 - 75% of Max HR except when mountain biking on weekends when during the steeper climbs I can hit 100% of Max HR. Will keep at it and see how it goes... the advise on this thread has been quite useful. René -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
