MOm gets wired for Power

MOm has gone full Pro, her bike now features a PowerTap computer. Dad thought it would be fun to monitor MOm's heart rate and power output, so he put the PowerTap on her bike and we set out for Little Mountain.
Here are the #'s
Distance- 20.55mi., Time-1hr51min., Avg. heart rate-150bpm
her#'s for Emigration canyon climb- Dist-7.7mi, 56min, avg watts-91, Avg hr-161bpm.
Anyway those are the #'s


In Me news- I like to eat black beans for dinner and turkey and watermelon, pretty much anything actually.


And I like to stand up against the fridge and pull off the magnets... that is all.

Lose 6lbs this week!



Dad is on a Forze gps diet this week*, Forze is a bar made by the nutrition company that Dad reps. Dad has his own crazy Forze crash diet.. Coffee, Forze as needed and nutritious salad for dinner, He eats half a Forze bar whenever he get hungry.. then for dinner he has a big salad full of vegis and a chicken.

his thought process is it takes the same will power to cut alot or a few calories, so he goes hard at it and gets the pound off.
Say what you like about Dads madness, he knows what he's doing... or so he says..

*this diet is not recommended by PHLI or Forze

Why loose weight? race season is here and Dad wants to maximize his power to weight ratio.

Training with Power


Dad has been teaching me about training with power, he goes out and collects data on his Power Tap.. when he returns I get to analyze the data.

I guess you just plug the thing into ones mouth, I'll get it eventually
