Solid work, welcome back to it after a week off! Hope your wrist feels better. Motivation can be hard, and as soon as I skip a day or two it seems like a week flashes by in a blink of an eye. Do you know what keeps you motivated? In my case it's numbers, I like seeing my total meters reach mileston...

On week 16, I skipped last week due to motivational issues and was gonna do 6 rows this week to make it up for it.

Week 7 done. Rowed 3 days straight to finish it before week ends. I felt really sore today after yesterday intervals, I do not remember being this sore in any of the weeks.

Another week down. I'm hitting the ios16 bug so I'm not getting those browsable workout details. Surprising how much that saps my enjoyment actually. I learned the c2 utility has a mac version so I've ordered a usb C to B cable and should be able to update the firmware on the PM and also pull the r...

Week 6 done





Used the chest strap on Day 3, it was a bit itchy at first on my back but I got used it and I almost clipped it a few times since I would pull the handle to my chest.

I use a CooSpo, and it's significantly cheaper than Polar. I've never had an issue, apart from occasionally having to wash the chest strap, and eventually, after about five million metres, having to change it + 1 Every bit as accurate as named brands. If you just want it to link with PM5, ErgData, ...

You’re using too basic (and a discredited) method of working out your HR zone. Is 194 your actual max (MHR) - have you seen that during intense exercise or have you used 220 minus your age? Your resting rate (RHR) is what it is when you wake up, and usually fairly consistent. 49-60 is too big a ran...

Week 5 done (3 days late because I got injured from bouldering)

Day 2:



Day 3:

My max heart rate is 194 and 60% or 70% of it should be between 116ish and 135ish. https://i.imgur.com/aXqNEEW.png I did keep the pace constant thought first 1400 and I was using my apple watch to measure my HR which did not budge but was stuck around 98 (assuming it was a glitching?) since it jumpe...

Week 5 Day 1 https://i.imgur.com/0QKcVTp.png I need some advice about keeping my HR low. First 7 minutes, I kept it under 100 bpm, and it jumped to 160 and I took 30-50 seconds break to bring it down and but was ranging between 150-160 and when I went below 2:20 pace it kept going over 165. My goal ...

Week 4 Day 2 https://i.imgur.com/nSRm0DP.png Week 4 Day 3 https://i.imgur.com/B6qOoRn.png Day 3 was rough, my heart beat just went straight up after 4 minutes, I tried to stay clean and good form after 1st half but it just got sloppy and my s/m increased. I was in Zone 5 mostly, unlike Week 4 Day 1 ...

Week 17, 8 x 500m, r2. Did these after a 2k warm up. Wanted to be loose and warm since I've pulled my back on these short intervals twice in the last few months. I had a conservative goal to beat 2:06 and not get injured. :roll: https://photos.smugmug.com/Other/Lens-test/i-XT3Kz2h/0/3c255fb4/O/row9...

Week 4, Day 1: https://i.imgur.com/sgm8e8N.png Was a very fun session, I biked today around 36 miles and told myself to row. It went fairly well, the first half was super easy and I kept it almost under/close to 20 s/m (heart rate was in zone 1), it got a bit challenging towards the second half (hea...
