Alternating days

After a great workout at the gym on Sunday my body is in dire need of some recovery. (My idea of recovery now, is a night on the bike).
I've got a nice little set up with the bike, it's out of the way as not to annoy the rest of my family and I'm able to stream media via my iPad. This keeps me entertained when cycling, which helps the time fly by a lot quicker.


Last night was a bit of a struggle though, my joints ain't what they used to be. After a 50km stint and a tumble whilst running in a game of rounders my knee has been given me some grief.
Because of this I was only able to manage an hour on the bike. In that time I did around 18 miles, then 10 minutes of throbbing.


Still...18 miles on the bike and 10 minutes with the AAII is a pretty good day off.
Just to alternate things I'm back to the dumbbells at home today, then maybe a couple of days off.
