Hi all,
Looking for advice, opinions, criticism, tips, whatever you got. So I'm 55, maybe 5 lbs over "race" weight, haven't skated for a few years and am loving being back in in. My goal is to have fun, keep myself fit while challenging myself to constantly get better, improve myself; will be time trailing against myself. My long term goal is to skate 1/2 marathon distance strongly in addition to TT against myself at 10k, 5k, and 1k. Fwiw, I will be soon starting a nine week course of radiation treatment for prostate cancer, hopefully it won't interfere too much. So for aerobic base foundation I was thinking for 3 to 5 months to build up to 1 to 1.5 hours at no greater than 70% of max HR 4 days a week. Then cut down to 3 workouts 45 min to 1hr a week when I start doing intervals appropriate to the "race" distances, while doing one distance skate 1.5 hrs every 10 to 14 days. Any insight offered will be appreciated. Last edited by whiskey02; October 29th, 2016 at 07:10 PM. |

Are you training for specific races? What equipment do you have access to? What does your season vs. off-season look like? Do you have a peak target? For training plan purposes this makes a difference because perioditization phases will change based upon where you are in the season versus the off-season.

No, not training for specific races; just to better and challenge myself. I'm in Florida so if I was smart (no proof that I am) I would make July and August my offseason because of the heat & humidity. To make things worse, typically in July & Aug, everyday in the afternoon it will downpour like you've never seen (outside of FL); Being out when it rains like this is begging to be hit by a car - you just can't see when it rains like that. Being outside Jan Feb March is rarely a problem.
I'm really looking to "get the ..most" for the time I put in. I'm hoping the fairly short distances will allow me to push myself hard without as much danger of overtraining and injury once I build up a strong base. I'm not really starting at absolute zero aerobically but I would really like to do all my training on skates. I've been still riding a bike but I've had bilateral CT release and it's much improved but the bike is the worst trigger for my hands and I want to stop riding. I also do some basic weight training every 5 or 6 days which I'll continue, but will lay off much of the leg work when skating 4 days/week. I'm using my circa 1999 Bont Boss boots and a Xenan 3x100 1x80 frame that is crapping out on me. I will likely buy new skates with 4x110 next week. |

You may already be aware of a lot of the alternatives to ratiation and chemo as cancer treatments.
Here are some key videos to review BEFORE submitting to any kind of chemo, radiation, or surgical cancer procedures: Truth about cancer → Mike Adams Interview https://video.search.yahoo.com/yhs/s...a4&action=view Dr. Steven Tucker Q&A Part1 https://video.search.yahoo.com/yhs/s...1c&action=view Prostate Cancer: Exposing the TRUTH - Plant-Based Diet! https://video.search.yahoo.com/yhs/s...c5&action=view Cancer:The Hidden Truth & Supressed Cures - S.A.I.N https://video.search.yahoo.com/yhs/s...15&action=view High Intensity Focused Ultrasound outpatient prostate cancer treatment → http://www.ppclpo.com/hifu-medical/ Much new research on CBDs for fighting cancers and reducing inflammation throughout the body: → https://id.wordpress.com/tag/cannabinoids/ Total support website: https://go.thetruthaboutcancer.com/ https://video.search.yahoo.com/yhs/s...a4&action=view Remember, cancer is a SYMPTOM and NOT A DISEASE.
