hello:)
from the food vlog, hehe
- do you hear my annoying chewing in the background??
yes, maybe you shouldn't chew loud hehe
but I do exactly the same so
anyway, hello and welcome to a new vlog!
Now we're in Holmestrand
on our way to Larvik on bikes
Haven't had any problems so far!
We didn't bring any tubes or equipment
just crossing our fingers and hoping for the best
approximately 150k today
still a bit to go!
the weather forecast said it would be sunny
I was planning to get a good tan
but no
training anyways;)
good morning from Larvik
arrived here yesterday on bikes
150k wohooo
maybe you're not so impressed, but at least we were very happy
time is 6:50
breakfast is served
everybody knows I love breakfast, hehe
and after breakfast we're off on rollerskis. New place and new terrain will be nice!
have you ever seen
this
perfection of a roller ski road
I think only roller skiers can relate to the feeling
when you see perfect asphalt, no cars
flat terrain
- it's actually not that funny to watch a video where everything is good
- nothing to complain about
true, there is not much to complain about now
but we shouldn't jinx it, because we have met 3 black cats crossing the road today
so A LOT of things can go wrong from now
but I'm thinking
when life gives you flow, appreciate it
*wisdom word of the day* it's my new motto!
because I know it's going to stop any time!
50k skate ends here
the farm next to the cabin
bringing 3 squash and 2 bags of kale
the reward of today's session, haha
kale and squash...
I think maybe a chef would have arrested me for attacking this crab with the kitchen scissor
now
am I doing good - I can feel it
Life should be exactly like this
- neither more nor less
this is the life I want to live, right??
drinking iced coffee, swimming
and taning
just have to emphasize that we have skated 50k today
and we're having another training session
but in the meantime - aaaah
second session of the day: boring double poling on roller skis? Or paddle kayak?
kayak<3
based on
previous paddle experience, I think we will leave the camera here
we CAN get very nice pictures, but we can also get a broken camera
sooo we'll leave it on the pier, huh?
yo!
where are we going?
our forest cabin
the combination of
weekday training and weekday vacation
continues
it's all about maximizing life
we delivers on that area now, I think
been in Holmenkollen today, double poling for 3h
second session, biking and running to the cottage
a morning dip tomorrow?
nice style
you're doing triathlon it looks like, hehe
travelling light
the cottage style
trying to bring as less as possible, right
brought one shirt, so I will save it for later
prioritizing the taco sauce for dinner instead of another pair of shorts
blueberries?
had to stop
didn't manage to run past
antioxidants<3
I feel I have good inner training motivation
and am
motivated to train, but that motivation
disappears completely when I see
blueberries or mushrooms!!
then, hehe
I just can't run past
I have to stop
It's a training weakness I have
I did some extra running
finished
time is around 8pm
look at the beautiful light
there
is the little cottage
smells like tacoooos
do I have toothpaste around my mouth??
no, but you have the craziest hair ever
we don't have a mirror!
7:45am
the day has begun
you're going to work
me too!
I will train on the way home;)
this is how this fall should be
weekday vacations<3
you're happy now behind the camera?
squats 3x6, pullups 3x6, one legged dead lift 3x8+8, ring rows 3x10, KB swings 3x12, triceps exercise in rings
for those who wonders if I'm just relaxing and am on vacation
I understand if you think so!
but I promise you I'm training:))
today I have had a pretty tough technique/ strength/speed session
I want to show you some of the exercises and give you some inspiration
my coach on over 80 kg behind me, hehe
recommend people to test!!
now it's time for the second training session of today
But I will do a yoga session before I leave
and go to the Olympic Centre and the rollerski treadmill
I will do a standardized intensity 3 session
just to check in with my body and see if everything is as it's supposed to be: in good balance
so first yoga, then intervals!
for those of you wondering
I don't do any specific yoga program
but Ashtanga yoga was my first meeting with yoga
Now I'm literally just doing those exercises/positions that feel good
and that I feel is helping me
with being as flexable as I feel I need to be in my sport
So I focus the most on
the hips, the back and the breath of course
and then I just do various positions that feel good
call it yoga or call it mobility exercises
call it what you want:)
at least I think it works!
can it succeed?
2,4
one more interval then?? - probably yes!
haha, you know
I really mean I don't sweat that much (but look at me now....)
*not recommending light grey shorts :D*
the goal for this session
below 3,0 (lactate)
it worked!
lucky for me that
the main part of our races are in the evening
maybe I should start to just do intervals in the afternoon?
you know, I'm probably too tired in the morning, haha
haven't woken up 8am apparently
happy coach?
of course!
today you were a bit too fast compared to your last sessions
personal record by far
that is what you call a scary situation
when it only can go down ;)
no no, that's just good
we'll take all the good days we get!! <3
