Biggest Training Week and Weekend of My Life

Today is Monday after I completed the biggest training week of my life and to be honest I feel terrific.  I am not really even sore and I am a bit confused.

This week was 5hrs more volume than my avg for 2012 and 8hrs more than my avg for 2011. I have to give props to First Endurance and their products who fueled me through my long workouts using a combo of EFS and EFS Liquid Shot and helped me recover using Ultragen. This was my first week on the combination and a lot of how I am feeling I have to attribute to that.

Also a large thanks needs to go out to my wife and mom (who takes care of my son during the day) who both have sacrificed to allow me to get this training volume in.

I have another similar volume week this week with a bit more swimming and running and a bit less biking.

Break down of my nutrition below:

Bike Ride Per Hour

2 Servings of EFS and 1 Serving of EFS Liquid Shot (mixed with water in a sports bottle).

Total of 300 calories, 75g of carbs, 700mg sodium (I added some thermotabs to get me to 1000mg)

1 Bottle of water per hour on top of the liquid above.

Run Per Hour

2 Servings of Liquid Shot for the second hour of the run.

Total of 200 calories, 50g of carbs, 200mg sodium
