Rest day

January 27, 2013 Mikael Paulinow

I've been training frequently for a while now and my legs are telling me they need a day off. "Shut up legs" is the famous saying by Jens Voigt, probably the hardest guy in the peloton. On the bike, the one who can keep the legs and body "quiet" for the longest time will probably do a good in race. But off the bike, you need to listen to your body in order to avoid overtraining and injuries. So today I've been cleaning my bike, reading bike blogs and books and of course, Sundays are also for watching sports on TV.

The training program software being "inspirational" ;)

Yesterday morning going to gym I had to take this picture. It almost feels like spring..

After breakfast and gym it's time to enjoy (Runeberg's torte is probably the best thing you can eat)

Cleaning the bike while watching SWE-FIN WC in Bandy

And the truly inspirational, one and only Jens Voigt about fighting your body:

When your body is hurting and it starts talking to you, follow the advice of pro cyclist Jens Voigt.

Hope you had a good weekend!
