I am connected

Feels good to be out peddling the bike again. Leg muscles remind me that I have not given them a good workout in a long time, funny how it feels good to get off the bike and the leg muscles are very tired and wobble around to get stability, that always puts a smile on my face. Why does that feel good to some people and awful to others? I guess we know that the tiredness and wobbly feeling in fact is a step ahead, a gain, a progression and if we do this to our muscles two to three times a week they will build strength. If my muscles feel tired after a five mile ride, then if I do this two or three times a week by the end of the month my legs will feel tired after twenty five miles.
My ankles are giving me pain every once in a while not sure what the cause is, weird thing is sometimes it’s the right sometimes the left, a sharp pain then its gone.
I was discussing with some fellow UBBT members the other day and telling them that I have noticed that the one hundred fifty pushups a day is changing my body, my shoulders are pulling back into alignment, my back is straightening, my elbows don’t touch my sides any more. That’s kind of cool. Crunches are firming up the belly. These both have helped my lower back. All in all it fee eels good. Mind and body connected.
