Tomorrow I am going to do my first ever FTP test as part of the onboarding with Matthew and Anthony. Matthew gave me a power range to aim for. I feel like I am going to mess it up 😁. Should I aim to be conservative? All advice welcome!

This is what google was saying to me for ideas on overcoming mid week slumps : Wednesday motivation focuses on overcoming the "hump day" slump through mid-week reflection, gratitude, and setting small, actionable goals to boost productivity. Key ideas include reviewing goals, tackling tough tasks, practicing self-care, or using inspiring quotes to boost energy for the remainder of the week. Do any of you use these tips and if so how do you incorporate them? Or do you find other things that work well for you? Spent too much time looking after Caoimhe over the last few days as she has her first race next week. Feeling a lot more flat for it to be honest 😆 Definitely feels quite different living in Ireland compared to Spain too. It’s so easy to leave the house and just go for a walk when the weather is that bit better. Even going to the local shop for an Aquarius. Might be the fact that I live in rural Ireland but even still I feel like it’s so much easier to leave the house when the weather is that bit better. The darker, winter days here definitely are a big change too - I don’t know how some of you do it when you are snowed in for months on end at this time of year.

Ok folks, bold move. I’m deleting zwift and upgrading to training peaks premium which includes virtual. Anyone have similar thoughts ? I’m nervous 🤣

Did you ride today? I'm just about to get up for 60 mins easy spin of the legs, z1/2

What were you proud of this past week? Any PB’s, weight loss, consistency or just breaking a rut For me it was getting back on the trainer after a crash last week
