Fucking hell Lee you fucking beast...
I am fortunately staying injury free for the time being. Would you guys say that if I had the time to do much longer cardio session and keep my heart rate at 150~155 range? At the moment when I am pushing hard, sometimes I see it peek up to ~180 which I know is way too high. Sitting at 150~155 feels like I'm barely working at all, and I can quite happily sit at that pace for a decent length of time (On a Bike at least). My upper body is pretty slight compared to my legs.
I am considering finding a local Athletics team and seeing if I can get back in to that. I used to do County level athletics in my teens, and just kinda stopped when I went to Uni. I used to be a sprinter/middle distance runner and Long/Triple jumper, so the leg strength is mostly still there. I'd love to do track cycling, but it's very expensive and I live no where near a Velodrome :(
