(I snapped a picture of this Airbus A380 yesterday on my way to work. As you can see, the weather was pretty miserable, and I got thoroughly soaked.)
Hi Actifitters,
In addition to a few core stability exercises, yesterday’s schedule included the most intense cycling workout I’ve done in a long time. Garmin decided it would be a great idea to work on my threshold power. The plan called for a total ride of just under 70 minutes, featuring two 16-minute intervals where I had to pedal at 260 watts. My current FTP is 240 watts—the power output I should be able to sustain for 40 minutes.
I handled the first block pretty well, but the last 10 minutes of the second block really pushed me to my limits. I almost had to give up. I was so incredibly relieved once I’d powered through it. During the cool-down, a metallic taste suddenly developed in my mouth. I’d heard of this happening to other cyclists, but it was the first time I’d experienced it myself. Does anyone know what causes that metallic taste?
Mission 80 (Day 53 = 86.2 kg / Goal = 80.0 kg / Initial weight = 90.0 / Total loss = 3.8 kg)
For the fifth day in a row, I can report weight loss. Since yesterday, I’ve lost a full 400 grams. At the same time, 86.2 kilograms marks a new personal best since I started Mission 80.
Today’s training plan once again features pull-ups—or rather, the downward phase of the movement. Let’s see if I can manage one more rep than last time. As for cycling, today is a rest day. However, I’m not yet sure whether I’ll take a complete break or fit in a short recovery session.

Congratulations for reaching a new personal best on the weight loss plan
!BBH
thank you very much
That's sounds pretty intense. I felt similar when I came down from the mountain last week. 2h climbing up, 5h hacking and beating the fire, then 2h climbing down. The refreshments offered by the indigenous community down at the starting point never tasted so good...
Beating the fire? Were you affected by forest fires? 😲
Just realized your post. Are you working for the fire fighters?
Among many others, yes. It was mostly indigenous from the communities up there. Many fire fighters, too, but mainly civilians. Quite the experience.
