Ranger's training thread

[ranger]

Until you post (a the very least) a screen shot of this variety we know that you have an agenda other than sharing your training.

My daily training is improving my technique, not my fitness and aerobic capacity, which motivate screen shots.

The results of my improved technique will only be documented when I train for and race the various events.

I am doing that now for the FM.

When I am done with that, I will move on to the HM, 60min, 10K, 30min, 6K, and 5K, in that order.

I am delighted with my training.

It is coming along beautifully.

Another great 20K of "Steamrollering" this morning, no heart rates over 155 bpm.

Don't know what was up yesterday.

In a similar row, my HR floated along at 170 bpm.

It didn't _feel_ like I was working that hard, though.

Must have been hot or something.

This "Steamrollering" is getting better and better, every day.

I need to stretch the distance to 40K, though, just putting in the meters, taking good strokes.

1500 strokes this morning.

I need to put in 3500.

A couple of hours OTBike after breakfast, just to loosen up and stay lean.

Vacation!

Ahhhhhh.

I don't have to go back to teach until March 8th.

The wife and I might go on a little ski trip, just to pass the time and kick up our heels a bit.

We'll see, I guess.

My goal is 1:48/2:32 @ 22 spm.

That's Slocum's long-standing 50s hwt FM WR.

My FM pb is 1:54/2:40, but that was rowing poorly (10 SPI) at high drag (200+ df.).

I now row well (12-13 SPI) at low drag (119 df.).

I'll now row a FM in a 4.2-to-1 ratio.
