My knees and ankles are not in the best of shape these days. Alot of hard miles on them. The mornings are abit tough until I get the old joints warmed up.
All the work on the property and house doesn't help.
Last night the spousal unit gave me some spray that's supposed to reduce the pain. Being trained well, I sprayed the knees last night.
This morning, no pain in the knees, but the ankles were tight since I didn't spray them.
I've tried all kinds of stuff and they didn't work. This really worked for me.
If you have any kind of joint pain, try this it may work for you like it does for me.

Ok. . . .
Did 3 1/2 hrs of weedwackin on a hill side, went for my 10/1600 ride, did some work inside the house, made dinner (I enjoy cooking), sat down in my comfy chair and wack, the inside of my leg above the knee cramped like a son-of -biscuit.
It was painful to move let alone walk. Made it to the bedroom. I tried massaging it out and it turned into a ball of pain.
Sprayed the pain away all around the area and within 15 seconds, the pain was gone and I was walking around normally.
I'm going to take this on my longer rides and if I cramp I will see if it works in the wild.
 
driving into the valley Tuesday morning. car infront of me entering the freeway doing 35, never increases speed. Caltrans blocks 3 lanes and the flow stops. on the street a person turns right from the left lane, cannot do it smoothy because there is a car in the left lane, slams the brakes. A car merges into the street to go south, I am going north. There are an entire line of cars going south. Stops in the middle of the street, Me and two others have to stop and wait for the woman to clear the street.
I was going to give all of them eyes on the road hand signs
but I did not
 
I had no idea my Garmin could do this.
Elevation and heart rate on the same graph.
More data to keep me distracted

Haha...yeah more data!
Good timing. My Lauf came with a power meter in the cranks, but can only access the data with a head unit ( Garmin or some such ) and had no idea what the data looks like. This helps as now I know, graphs. I've been so in the fence not knowing what it shows Hhmmm, do I or do I not go further into the rabbit hole :cautious:

I use the heart rate data to see how quick my recovery is from the peaks. This and max. heart rate tells me how the motor is doing. These two items were things that I should focus on, according to my cardio professor at Fullerton College, when I went back at the ripe old age of 56. When he told me that I push my body so hard I will explode my heart I decided then to watch my hart data. At the time I was training to do the Vision Quest on my SS.

ps. The rabbits like the company. . .

Having the HR data on my wrist during long events like VQ on the SS or Frog Hollow is a must... I know where it needs to be to go all day. Without the visual, I tend to blow myself up. :laugh:

I'm also running a little over the formula...
