2 weeks ago y’all gave me tips on fueling for a 200ish mile ride
That was first time I’ve gone >100 in 5+ years. This year I’ve also cycled 50%+ miles than ever before, and just wrapping up ~8 week block - so lots of accumulated fatigue
Days 1-9 after the long ride my Resting Heart Rate was 4-8bpm higher than normal. I have only ridden super easy since then. Any effort is met with immediate fatigue, body is super worn out and legs are tired
For the last 4 days (days 10-13 post ride) ive been sleeping 10 hrs / day (up from ~8 which is normal). RHR is back to normal, Legs are starting to feel better, too
I assume this is my body just telling me to cool it for a bit. I vaguely remember feeling this kinda tired after Ironman, but haven’t done one of those in 6 years now
Any tips to help body recover ?
