hi,
i'm getting really frustrated here!. this is the 3rd time in the last 3 months. i take 3000-4000 vitamin c every day with a multi, zinc and B12 but i'm still getting sick. i have been training when i'm well but the last couple of weeks have had some pretty intense rides.
i'm in the gym 3 days a week with about 10 hours of riding. on some of those rides i've been at race pace (maxed out).
maybe it's too early in the season to be pushing that hard and my body has had a tough time keeping up and healthy? i get about 8-9 hours of sleep and do the best to stay hydrated and streched out.
i'm 34 and i race expert men mountain bike. i've been racing for 4 years now.
any comments?
best,
dp
