What Training Have You Done Today?

[Jbrown1215]

Sweet! Mine is the same Vapor Fitness seat pad then. Have been very pleased with it and it's been on my erg for a solid year now. Glad it's helped reduce your suffering .

Nice, so when do the performance benefits kick in?

Patience, young grasshopper... in due time

I'm leaning towards giving the FM a go... yesterday's session to get a feel for a realistic target pace and cadence gave me the nudge and confidence boost I think I needed.

3x9999m (the largest interval the PM will accept, who'd have known?), with undefined rest periods that ended up being just over 3' each. First time using the "Undefined Rest" feature. Neat!

Used this as an opportunity to test out my tech (making a time lapse on the GoPro), fuel, hydration, posterior pain mitigation, and anti-chafing measures. Better than expected!

Should be able to go sub/around 1:45 if I got the correct head on because this wasn't too hard.

Some very specialist info, 'Just Row' only goes to 50k before it resets.

I really like undefined rests, as it gives you good options and a safety net if it all goes against expectations

Another 10k at 20 s/m.

3rd and final go at March CTC. Good improvement again and now roughly what I thought I was capable of so won't be going again.
