i saw one guys BAK post on strava this week!
TOUGH!!!
Me and my velomobile (the white one) outside the Stafford, KS community center early on the morning of June 13th (Tuesday), preparing to head out onto the optional century route (100 miles) into Newton, KS. The red and white velomobile belongs to a guy I met the first night in Elkhart. We would ride together all week. Rural Kansas folks had never seen one velomobile, much less two together, so we created quite a stir wherever we went. In the background you can see some friends of mine with their Rans Seavo recumbent tandem and (her) Bacchetta Corsa recumbent bicycle, along with any number of more normal bikes lined up against the walls of the various downtown shops. I had a great time at BAK!

After my big week in Kansas, I took it easy last week and rode 102 miles. Back at it again, I rode 151 miles this week.
Thought I'd jump in, pretty much just saw this thread.
I'm just not a fan of cardio although I should be doing it. I'm kinda svelte to begin with (5'11', 170) but would like to lose the belly fat. I just turned 60 so it'll only get worse. I lift twice per week, in the garage, so sometimes the workout takes a little longer depending on the heat. I work pretty quick, maybe 90 sec between sets (I have a clock).
I currently do one exercise for each bodypart, 2-3 sets of 10-12 for now. I'm staying away from dips (shoulder) and squats (back) and going with DB incline press and Shrug Bar DLs. The deadlifts are the only compund lift I do right now. I injured my tricep a while back and have a nagging shoulder issue (small tear) but right now, no issues.
For guys with grumpy shoulders, if you haven't tried it, try a neutral grip for your pressing. It's helped me immensely on my shoulder.
It helps to set a goal, even if you don't tell anyone. I did it once and had good results but haven't done it since and have continued to wander around on my lifting.

Been doing some just not checking in here like I should. Just got back from the weeekly gravel ride, 20.3 miles and did 26 last week. A few laps at Draper and a couple trainer rides, still not near as many miles as you get.
I rode 135 miles last week, did 55 miles yesterday morning in the rain. I ride early in the mornings to beat the heat and try to be back home before it gets too hot.
I did a fairly serious keto pull for 3-ish weeks. Dropped about 14 lbs, but I just couldn't ride worth crap on it.
Started rolling some carbs back in and got back on bike Sat and Sun and did 20 and 30 miles. Going to take a minute to get back, but will get there.
Still need a few pounds off but I'm going to do it with miles. I missed the bike time.

Congrats on the weight loss. Keep up the good work!
Did 30.5 monday around Draper lake and will be doing the usual Wednesday gravel this evening in the HEAT.
