Tripler Loops...Jury IS Still Out...

So I'm pretty bummed since my new pedaling style is still sort of on the fence...cause today, I felt good, felt like riding, and my times were not much faster...

I headed out at about 5:45pm and did 3 loops of Tripler...in the rain..and I was only maginally faster than last week, although it was pretty windy. Don't know if the wind helped or hurt...

Infact, I went back to my old "back seat" position and pedaling style and it felt pretty good - so long as I wasn't going into too strong of a headwind. So I used the old pedaling style in certain places where being back and high was better, then I went to the new front position to save the legs when they got tired. Who the hell knows which one is better - maybe a combination of the two???

Last weed Wed: 3 Triplers climbing all med. tempo with new pedaling style for all 3: all in the 8:55 to 8:58 range. Max HR was about 181

Today: 3 Triplers: Max HR about 186-187 (so I was going way harder than last week)

@ 3' on 1' off: 8:39 best time

@ 1' on 1' off: 8:56 worse time

@ hard tempo: 8:44 pedaling both from the front and back

So.....I still need to do more "testing" cause I don't have the PT...
