I am soon have one of these StumpJumper Carbon comps on its way to me. I will be buying it mainly for the frame, and hope to sell most of the parts in their new condition.

If you are interested in any of these parts, contact me (email on your right) to make an offer. I will post the length of the forks steer tube as soon as I get the bike. Don't be afraid to throw some low balls at me, I will not be offended and may like your price! Please tell your friends.
Recent Training:
Monday: recovery from race. Didn't even ride in to work because my left knee was sore from a crash in the frostbike. Work was quite physical though for a solid seven hours.
Tuesday: 1/2 hour strength workout at home. I did every excise I could think of that I felt was helping my riding. Body weight squats and jumping jacks (not many because they hurt my knee a little) worked great for a warm-up. I did wall sits, planks, pull-ups, push ups, deadlifts, swings, sit ups an calf stuff all in no particular order. Just whatever I felt like doing I did, and I left very little recovery between. I may have invented a new very effective calf workout. What I do is stand on a step with the palm of one foot, and hold a 25lb dumbbell in the matching hand, holding it for two minutes. The first minute is easy, but after that the burning is intense, an the last 30 seconds is very painful. I did each foot twice. I came up with this because I wanted to do to my calves what wall sits do to my quads; make them burn! Also, snowboarding creates a serious burn in your calves when you ride your toe edge for a long time, and I wanted to mock that. Doing partial raises or bouncing on that foot may make this even more effective. Try it.......
After that workout, I rode into work adding in an extra loop with two climbs up the escarpment. Took about one hour.
Wednesday: 1 and a 1/4 hour snowy jog. I ran on flats for 50 mins and spent about 25 mins seshing the lock 3 stair set. Went up it about ten times with a straight sprint the last time. Legs felt lite and springy so I was happy. Calves where a little sore, as expected. I spun into work after for about 1/2 hour.
I have a lot of riding planed for the rest of the week and over the long weekend. Hood on Friday, Hill reps one day and a really long road ride if the weather is decent. Gonna be fun, I can't wait to go back to the hood!
Peace and love

what is wrong with the kona it is a beautiful velo!
ReplyDeleteWhen I had a calf strain a couple years ago the main exercise given to me by my physio was calf raises - just body weight, ball of both feet on a step, raise and hold for 5 seconds and lower to below hight of step (full calf extension). He had me doing 3 sets of 20, which was quite the burn.
ReplyDeleteThe extension, which I was never able to do more than 2 or 3 of, is the same thing on one foot at a time. Double the resistance is huge on an exercise like that. Both feet at once but with dumbells might be the right middle ground resistance wise, if you can't do the single leg one.
I agree, my Kona is beautiful, but I really want to try a carbon frame. My Kona will still be ridden the most though as I will use it for all training rides and maybe some muddy races.
