I elevated my heart rate above 110 for the first time in six days last Saturday: 45 minutes on the trainer. Minor adductor pain for the first 30 seconds. Then smooth sailing. Felt good afterwards after stretching. No major repracautions the following morning.
Then I repeated this for one hour Sunday. Felt fine again, same discomfort for the first 30 seconds.
Monday I attempted the elliptical for one hour, at a level 30/100 intensity. Felt okay, but was very sore afterwards. Woke up Tuesday morning, with little pain on adductor, ITB stiff.
So now I am taping the ITB at the lateral epicondyle, and maintaining my stretching and adductor strap.
My war wounds have healed well, thanks to 500% of Vitamin C intake per day, and close monitoring of my diet.
I am going to raise my seat height approx. 1.5 cm today, testing some new geometry.
