I decided to do back to back RPMs today as today was a non 'work' day. Arguably that's the upside of contracting. I couldn't work because I'm dependent on recieveing some information from an external source.
First session was with AK - who like the Tuesday instructor is a LM PT. He's the guy who is bit "mean" - not nasty mean - just mean in a PT way that you expected to train hard or go home kind of way. Fair enough too. He played "Why", and "Delerium" for the "old" people in the room - which I guess is me, actually! - well compared to the 20 and 30 somethings!. I like those tracks - being top of the favourites list really. He has a lot of emphasis on riding to the rythm of the music. I like the way he does that re listening to the beat. It does make for a better ride. He's mean - but not really and I respect him for being a good instructor. His track no 7 was Night train. That's probably my favourite track 7. It's quite a hard ride though.
Second session was with the Hutt girl - and her tracks were pretty much what I started RPM riding to. and then she puts in Night Train as track 7. Oh no........I like it but riding twice to it is quite hard.
Anyway, good double ride today. The goal is to go to RPM again tomorrow. Last time I did a double ride, I used it as a bit of an excuse to have too many rest days afterwards which of course defeats the purpose of double riding.
I will be class tomorrow - if it kills me - it wont of course. And even if I am physically tired, the mental adrenalin will kick in.
I will be class tomorrow, because today's RPM was RPM 99 :-) Yes, that's right. Tomorrow will be 100 RPM day. I'll be riding it with the Young American who I've only ever riden once with before. In some ways that will be good for reasons I'll post about tomorrow!
