Tour de France Training 9: Rest Day

Today is a rest day for Crashstrong and the rest of the funky bunch at Le Tour. Recovery is as important as training. Without recovery, you will never actualize the benefits that come with hard, smart training--you'll just run yourself into the ground.
Today's WOD takes discipline--the discipline to go very, very easy. So easy that you'll think you're not doing anything. You are. You're circulating blood to damaged tissue to flush out metabolic waste and refresh your body.

Then ride one hour very, very easy. Spin at a high cadence, keep heart rate extremely low, then go home and take a nap if you can.
Live Alive.
