Kilimanjaro inspired

Monday 2/25 - Boyles
Tuesday 2/26 - ridiculous biking
Wednesday 2/27 - Boyles

I'm kind of sad that Boyles is ending in 2 weeks - I've never made so much strength improvement in just a few months! But at least I will get home before 9 on Mondays and Wednesdays! Considering signing up for the spring session though haha... I don't want to believe that this is the strongest I'll ever be in my life!

2/26
Today all the cardio was taken so I decided to warmup on the bike. Then my coworker Joe who was next to me said "why don't you do Hill Plus? Mine had a Kilimanjaro option" so I thought sure why not? I'll try it. Since my abs were ridiculously strained and in pain from doing the ab roller incorrectly, I decided I'd continue to bike after a 10min warmup. Then I told a guy I'd bike 10 miles so that was that - I had to do it. Maintaining over 100 rpm.

Luckily I only realized 18 minutes in that I was deceived  It was NOT a "hill workout" - it was 60 sec intervals of low and super high resistance!! GAHHH.

I thought if I biked faster during the hard section it would be over sooner. I was wrong.
No matter how much harder I biked it was still 60sec long. silly Emhsieh.

I have never been so sweaty in my life except when I truly did high intensity interval biking that one other time at the OMAC. So I did that for 40minutes (passed 10miles around 30).

Pics below.
