brutal close grips, how does all of that bike riding affect your leg workouts?

Not much man, thanks.

I suck at updating this thing. I guess I figure since I write it in a log book - why bother.

Anyway -

MONDAY

FLAT DB:
95 x 6 x 5 sets

INCLINE BB:
205 x 5 x 5 sets

FLYES:
45 x 10 x 3 sets

CGBP: lt wt - hi reps
115 x 20, 18, 16

SKULLZ:
85 x 8 x 4 sets

PUSHUPS w/45 on back
20, 20, 18....lol - pooped

STANDING MIL PRESSES:
135 x 8 x 3 sets......that felt heavy, shoulders were pre-exhausted to death.

HIIT on stationary bike for 18 mins.......

BW is up to 244, waist size is down 1" from a month ago. Cals are at about 3900-4000 a day, still carb cycling most of the time, with a zero day on Sundays. Strength is great, sleep is great, and recovery has been great. Appetite is off the charts with this 6 meals a day routine.....lots of tuna, sushi, turkey breast, lean beef, fruits and veggies. Carbs are limited to whole grains, brown rice, sweet potatos and one big azz baked potato a week loaded w/sour cream and fake butter.

Also - last Sat rode 34 miles - this Sat is my 50 mile ride.

34 miles took 2 hrs and 21 minutes. I was smoked at the end. One of the riders who rode the last 10 with me wanted to go for a run at the end, I declined. LOL. No bricks for me after 34 miles.

I hope to do the 50 in less than 3.5 hrs. Its supposed to be a little cooler this weekend, which will help. I'll carb up big on Friday and have a couple food breaks during the ride as well.

1 hr on t-mill this morning on empty stomach. Combo of walking and running, ended up with around 5.5 miles - walked over 1/2 the time.

Very low carb day today, under 50, with all of those coming right after the workout in form of some fruit and a slice of wheat toast with my eggs.

Today is day 2 of the trek back down to 220ish......
