    Mental Toughness + Hillacious

    2.5 hours of Coach Troy.

    I haven't done MT in awhile. It has a set of isometric squats in the middle. I remember when I first got this video those were SO hard. He'd say we were halfway there and I'd be screaming obscenities. They're not so bad now.

    The last set of Hillacious was killer. There is a lot of big ring + 12 in Mental Toughness, so having one more set of that after 2+ hours was hard. But then this really rockin' song came on, as I was starting my cool down. I just HAD to do a super spin to it. Kill me now...

    LOL! I've did the Uphill Grind and I lived to talk about it.

    Uphill Grind is hard - congrats on making it all the way thru, and living to tell about it.

    I finally made it thru the entire Aero Base Builder V compilation today - a bit over 2 hours. I had to take a break in the middle though.

    I thought I was going to lapse into a coma ...

    I did half of Tough Love. It was tough enough. I'm working up to the full 3 hours one set at a time.

    I like those aero base builders - 2 hours is a long time on a bike, though.
