At first glance, the results could seem disappointing. The exact same FTP results about 14 months apart. But this is not at all upsetting to me. In fact, progress can look exactly like this. After getting the bike in 2020,…

Leaderboarding
Last night I went with Lauren to the 7:00 p.m. – 7:45 p.m. CycelBar class. These 45-minute rides are intense. Well, at least they are for me. I personally think some of the Peloton 45-minute rides are easier. Perhaps that…
On the beach
I spent last week in St. Augustine, Florida away from the gym, away from my calendar, away from any alarms on my phone, and away from the barbell. I got out of my comfort zone in new ways, including going…
9K + One Year with Peloton
An email popped up in my inbox letting me know I have had the bike for a year now. I downloaded all of my workouts from my dashboard and totaled up a few of the columns to see where I…

Powerbuilding & Birthdays
Last week was a deload week for me. It was strange because of how low the weights were. I felt as if it was almost pointless to go in and do anything. One day, rather than the low percentage deadlifts…
PZP Winter Challenge Recap
This was my second Power Zone Pack challenge and also the longest, most difficult. The first challenge I completed was a 6-week challenge and I don’t remember it being as difficult as this one. I believe there are a few…
Spinal
The weather here has not been great. It has been so cold and icy that I have not been willing to venture out to walk like I normally do. I am still moving around, so I am not worried about…
