The most grueling cycling workout of my life... my training diary entry from September 2 2026

(I took this photo yesterday during my evening walk. People are truly idiotic and don't seem to give a second thought to the crazy things they do. That said, when I was on the smart trainer today and nearly lost my mind, I would have happily gotten rid of my bike, too. ;-) )
Hi Actifitters,
my training session yesterday started with reverse pull-ups. I was able to record an improvement over my previous workout, managing a total of two more repetitions than last time.
The next goal according to the training plan (31):
|set 1|set 2|set 3|set 4|set 5|break between sets| |-|-|-|-|-|-| |3|8|6|6|8|120 seconds|
My previous attempt (26):
|set 1|set 2|set 3|set 4|set 5|break between sets| |-|-|-|-|-|-| |2|7|5|5|7|120 seconds|
Yesterdays attempt (28):
|set 1|set 2|set 3|set 4|set 5|break between sets| |-|-|-|-|-|-| |3|8|6|6|5|120 seconds|
Afterwards, I hopped on the smart trainer for a threshold workout that was a real beast. My last threshold session consisted of just one block where I had to pedal at 270 watts for 16 minutes. But yesterday's workout involved two 16-minute blocks at 275 watts. That really pushed me to the limit. The following figures might give an idea of what I went through during yesterday's training session:
Duration - 1:07:09 Distance - 31.68 km Elevetaion gain - 530 m Average speed - 28.3 km/h Maximum speed - 72.0 km/h Average power output - 219 watts Maximum power output - 278 watts Average heart rate - 155 bpm Maximum heart rate - 184 bpm Average cadence - 90 Maximum cadence - 112 Calories - 844
After that ordeal, I’m really glad I have four completely training-free days now. At least my FTP value has climbed to 254.
Mission 80 (Day 66 = 85.2 / Goal = 80.0 kg / Initial weight = 90.0 / Total loss = 4.8 kg)
Yesterday I was disciplined and managed to lose a few grams. The scale's display showed 85.2 kilos.
That will be the last measurement for the next few days. I’m off on a short holiday and, naturally, I’m not taking my scale with me. As everyone knows, holidays and dieting don’t mix well, so I’m already a bit worried about the number that will be waiting for me on the scale on Monday. ;-)
Since we’re heading to the train station in just over half an hour to spend a few days in Prague (Czech Republic), there won’t be any workouts for the next few days. However, my wife and I will be clocking up plenty of steps while sightseeing, so at least we’ll be getting some physical activity.
