Bigman turns up the training regime

After a relaxing day off yesterday, except for 60 minute gave of 5 a side footie, Bigman returned to the training regime today with a 2 hour session in the gym.

A five o'clock start to take number one daughter to teh airport enabled a return via Edinburgh in teh evening to re-visit the gym.

20 minutes on the weights for upper body strength ( which hurt a lot after saturday), 20 minutes on the treadmill, followed by 20 minutes on the step machine, rounded off by 100 sit ups and 40 bench presses. He had earned the Sauna and Steam room that followed.

Training can be tough however ,it has its rewards.

Before Saturday, Bigman thought the training was on schedule. The stamina is there however much more needs to be done on the mountain bike and upper body strength.

Seven months to go. Not forgeting the fever pitch excitement for the Col du Carnock International Meet on this Saturday. If you are driving in Fife this weekend, best avoid the cycle track, it may be crowded.
