Spinning = cardio = faster recovery = better for long distances
Grinders = muscular fatigue = longer recovery = TTs

Good to mix both up if you have recovery time and good nutrition.

TTs; time trials

T1; granny training
T2; easy aerobic
T3; aerobic but getting quite tough to keep up for a long time
T4; knackering, on the lactic boundary
T5; vomit intervals MTT style

I believe the chaps who like chaps can tell you about grinder. Ask Gricer.

Talk of Grinders is even more disturbing. Unless you're that way inclined.

Well there we are.

ZeitMater's trip to see the quack was as much use as a chocolate teapot, as per expectation.



We came away with a prescription for paracetamol, antihistamine, and leaflet about the podiatrist service somewhere in the depths of Baglan Moors.

Ho hum.

With the cuk "laydees" you don't need good thighs to attract attention. Just a pulse.
