Fair play for cycling in this heat

Cheers!

I got a new top speed as well so I'm happy with that - 27.9mph on my clapped out old mountain bike

I've never had DOMs in my lats like this before. They feel very bruised.

Walked one hour

Bloody hell, you're smashing it. Any pain killers?

I take it your legs were ok following yesterday's walk?

I take amiltryptaline at night for the nerve pain and to help me sleepIthat's it,legs hurt a lot this afternoon so been told to rest all of next week then push again
I can do light weights now so that's good as well

That's awesome stuff mate, well done.

I walked to McDonald's & back, which is almost one WHOLE mile.

I'm shattered.

Well done, Perks!! Absolutely smashing the recovery mate...

I was on my way to the gym when my gf said no one is cooking tonight and there's nothing in so I blasted the cycle to get home and showered.

I ate a lovely chicken breast with chilli/pulled pork and salad

Tdf starts Saturday so expect the roads clogged full of Mamils
My bikes getting serviced as soon as my legs can walk one hour with 50% less pain than I have now I'm getting back on two wheels

arms and shoulders, whilst showing my wife how to deadlift. Fair play, she did 3x8 at 40kg without a struggle.

Two hours non stop on my road bike,Henley in Arden and back down the country lanes

Fair play mate.

Erm I got jelly legs now ,I expect some severe Dom's next week at some point

DOMS has got to be a welcome change from the neuro pain you're enduring.

My uneducated brain says get the blood flowing it might heal my nerve damage quicker
It's only a hunch but im fed up of sitting around waiting for changes

There has to be something in that. You'll be building up muscle as well so I reckon that's got to assist.

I can't see it being a negative, Perks! Increased blood flow is always a good thing (unless you've severed an artery)

How are the legs today?

Ok so just done another 1,50 minutes,stupid stinging nerve pain wont go though
Hopefully in time ,might do some squats in a proper gym in the winter if I keep improving and healing
The last two weeks I've loaded up on creatine and hbm it's seems to have made a noticeable difference to my muscle pain
