Reminder: Although here on the blog we often offer ‘do less’ as fitness advice, I’m not a ‘do less’ person really. I’m more a “schedule lots and maybe not get it all done but that’s okay” person.
In that spirit, here’s what I’ve got planned for winter workouts.
To be clear, most weeks I’ll manage 2/3 of this and that will feel like success to me.
MONDAY
5:55 am The HERD’s MONDAY MORNING COFFEE CREW ride. I’m a fan of early morning and Monday exercise. This is a double win! It’s also mellow and short, just 45 min.) When I manage to get up on time I find it a great way to kick off the week.
6 pm PHYSIO
9 pm Hot Yin Yoga. Love the hot gentle stretchy yoga right before bedtime.
TUESDAY
7 am Personal training with Sarah. That’s the plan anyway. I’ll let you know how it goes.
7 pm Structured Zwift workout or Zumba
WEDNESDAY
7 am HERD morning ride. The idea is that ‘on the bike at 7’ feels like sleeping in after Monday’s 5:55 am ride.
6 pm PHYSIO
9 pm Hot Yin Yoga. We’ve never made it twice in one week yet so really it’s more like a Monday or Wednesday thing.
THURSDAY
8 am Personal training
7 pm Structured Zwift workout
FRIDAY
7 am The HERD Kibbitz and Chinwag
SATURDAY
930 The HERD’s Thundering Turtles ride, or 12 pm Rehab Ride
SUNDAY
12 pm The HERD’s Rode to Recovery
So that’s the scheduled stuff. I’m hoping to also get out on my fat bike, take Cheddar for long hikes, do some yoga–either with Adriene or maybe with this guy, randomly use my plank challenge app, throw the kettlebell around, and use our TRX and our rowing machine. I might even do some aquafit and possibly some anti-gravity yoga.
What’s your new year workout plan look like?
