It's been a busy couple of weeks here with the holidays in full swing with Christmas and New Years. My mini training camp is going well, although my training schedule has been modified significantly to accommodate family and friends. Here are some quick updates:
- Christmas with the family was a blast! My brother and sisters are scattered throughout the US so it's great to see them again during the holidays as we all converge at my parent's house. I hear about other people dreading going home to visit their family and I'm thankful that our whole clan gets along well and enjoys spending time with each other. Hopefully that continues even as we go on to start families of our own!
- Traveling and the holidays have put a damper on my training. Trips to Louisville (work) and Las Vegas (play), and an upcoming Seattle trip (friends) are shuffling my training days so I'm trying to pack in as much as I can during the days I have open so I can treat those 'off' days as proper rest days. So far it's going pretty well, I don't feel like I'm overloading myself on the 'on' days and I still feel my strength growing from workout to workout.
- W/Kg is up a bit. I tested my FTP last week and picked up a few extra watts to play with. That combined with a bit of unintentional weight loss helped me move up a little on the power-to-weight chart. I do think I need to start eating more though, since I don't want to lose any more weight right now. The trick is to eat the right things and not just stuff my face with junk food. Maybe I'll set a New Year's resolution to find a nutritionist and finally put together a proper nutrition plan.
