Gaining strength and speed in bike ride yesterday to Morong

Wheels of Happiness

This post tried to implement what he has learned about big chain rings, and improving strength on rides (chill ride will not make you stronger) (from Giro and Audax riders)

    1.  Did big chain rings from Angono to Morong, did Callahan on big chain ring.   O riding up diversion,
         was on big chain ring until the left turn on the hill.

   2.  Returned via Diversion road for hill climbs, thigh and butt strengthening;

   3.  Sprinted up Mambog and going up final hill until cockpit

Hence sleep well soundly after the climb, and on the rest day

Doing the daily 50

Wheels of Happiness

On top of biking, this post, strive to do the daily 50:    push up, crunch, lunges, sit ups, push up, step up on chair(left and right)  350 reps in all.

I have to maintain my muscle mass and strength.  I saw an in law who spends most of this time sitting down or on a walker, because he cant walk because his legs and thighs are weak

For how long I can maintain my physical health, only God knows
