Hey I just wanted to give you guys my main workout plan and I wanted any suggests you can offer + I have some questions at the end.
I live in the country. I ride up and down 3 long hills about 2 1/4 miles into town, then once in town I ride to the gym to get a quick drink/ use restroom then ride back to the route to get back to my house, I ride about 1 and a half miles in town which has a relatively flat landscape with just a few small dips and inclines, then after that I ride 2 1/4 miles back to my house so I travel about 6 miles total.
That was kind of sloppy so I'll sum up what I did again:
2 1/4 mile ride from house to town
1 1/2 mile ride in town (I stop at gym here to get a drink/ use restroom/ lift weights(
2 1/4 mile ride from town to house, this part is pretty hard and really pushes me, especially the steep hill to my house.
After a while, I'll start to run 1/2 a mile on a track next to my house, then work up to 1 mile and so on.
I haven't worked out in a while, I usually start working out once summer comes around to get a nice beach body etc. This time I plan on workout year long (but I'll talk about that somewhere else). Also, I've done this exact workout before during the summer, even the running part.
I just had a few question about this. This workout is ok first of all isn't it? Is it ok to use the weights once I stop at the gym instead of taking only a short stop before getting back on my bike? I also plan on working my muscles but if its best to do straight biking and use weights later I can drive back to the gym after my bike workout. Is it ok to do this workout everyday (even sunday, my rest day)? I usually do this everyday during the summer except for the weekends but I think I can handle doing it 7 days a week, or 6 days a week if I must have that rest day.
Oh by the way, I'm 5'11 and weigh anywhere from 150-160 lbs (pounds).
I've also already started doing this workout. I haven't done it many times yet but I have done it everyday without stopping except to stop at the gym.
