The flip side is how much benefit we get by doing these hard things.<br /><br />Keep up the weights and the hard stuff.

I've been doing them with a medicine ball held out in front of me as part of my strength training.<br /><br />Today I rode uphill intervals on my commute home from work. I've been doing this once a week since late march and now I'm upping it to twice a week. The weight work has paid off in that my legs can actually push all the way up the freaking hill, and while my heart is definitely racing I have yet to feel the asthmatic's shortness of breath. So yeah, training actually helps. Sounds like you're a believer.<br /><br />Just make sure to schedule rest time between the hard efforts so you don't totally burn out.<br /><br />..::applause in your direction::..<br /><br />You monstah!bikelovejoneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16141991025526354179noreply@blogger.com
