RE: [Blog #96] Epic Mountain Bike race next Sunday

but have been able to push my gym maxes a bit further thanks to all the new mass :D

You are into hypertrophy, right?
I have to find the perfect balance between being lightweight and strong. Most of my gym exercises focus on core strength, stabilization and a lot of legs. Still could gain some more weight =/

So the race is tomorrow, right? Good luck again!

It was last Sunday xDD (finished 10th of 28 in my category) I have another race tomorrow. I'm trying to write about last sunday's race but having zero motivation.

Sort:  

Yeah, been trying to bulk up through lifting and increase my strength and gym maxes along the way. Been into this type of workout for some 2 years, did mostly calisthenics before ;)

A good friend of mine is in a similar situation like you. He is an ultramarathon runner, bony thin. He wants to build some muscles in his legs but doesn´t want any weight gains :D

Congrats on that 10th spot then! Sounds good :) And good luck tomorrow again!

💪 next year I'm aiming for a podium. I'm pretty sure it's doable considering this was my first year and I held back quite a lot not knowing the route.
