Cycling and Stuff

I did another threshold power test, this time from Graeme somebody on the web.  The results:

Functional Threshold Power Test.

watts 220
HR 130

This is about 90% of the watts and Hr that I was able to hold for 10 minutes.  Seems a little low.  I wasn't totally hammered, but I didn't want to do another one.

Even though we haven't really had much winter, it's still a little depressing around here in February.  I'm doing 2 or 3 training videos per week and I've started lifting again.  I feel prety good although my warming up HR was around 110 BPM last Wednesday.  This is about 10 beats high.  The odd thing is that I felt fine and my HR during the intervals was within limits even though i was going pretty hard.  I hope to be just a little stronger in the Spring.

I'm doing several Teaching Company Videos including "The Meaning Of Life", "Quantum Mechanics", "Particle Physics", "Physics and the Universe", and "The New Testament".  I'm also reading "The End Of Illness" which is pretty good.  Other than that I'm also gearing up to do development on Android systems in preparation for getting the Kindle Fire.  Pretty good week all-in-all.
