That's a solid result Sascha, even more so given your recent issues.
Thx mates.
Hopefully good recovery follows and it wasn't too early to push it.

Pretty fatigued as of this morning. I am used to training in and working in the heat but where I am now for work has much, much more humidity and the temps have been unusually high as well. Between Monday and the end of the day today (Thursday), I will have inspected about 86 buildings, including roofs (also means hauling and setting up ladders), so my caloric expenditure has been enormous this week. Luckily, I should be wrapped up tomorrow with a lighter day of 10 or less. I am happy I am still able to do some training in the morning before getting on with the day but I am looking forward to wrapping up the project I am on this week, getting home, and getting back into a more normal routine.

6/24 - Pull-Ups (5 reps), Push-Ups (10 reps), Walking Lunges (15 reps per leg); 1 round w/ BW, 15 rounds w/ 10kg weight vest.

6/25 - 20 mins incline treadmill walk (15%, 3mph) w/ 10kg weight vest. Pull-Ups (5 reps), Push-Ups (10 reps), Walking Lunges (15 reps per leg); 1 round w/ BW, 10 rounds with 10kg weight vest.

6/26 - Pull-Ups (5 reps), Push-Ups (10 reps), Walking Lunges (15 reps per leg); 1 round w/ BW, 20 rounds with 10kg weight vest.

The CTC intervals yesterday beat me really up. I had huge problems to get to sleep.
Today I had a gym session, but stayed a bit behind in terms of intensity.
10min skierg ft slower, tried to equally split it after the second had the same pace :lol:

Some handstand pushups, pullups, chest press and rows at machines afterwards. Feeling good right now, I think I need to ramp up a bit slower than I would like... :roll:

I failed this session again, so I need to get a grip next time as it's becoming too regular for my liking. It's definitely more mental than a physical issue, so I hope that a weekend away with some great mates will help decompress, but inevitably leave me wounded for Monday.

It's nearly the same point of bail out, isn't it? This indicates more a mental thing for me as well, as it's very unlikely that your body always breaks down at the exact same point in a workout.

I need to go for it, too. Saturday a strength session planned, I hope for good recovery and get it done on Sunday. But due to recent body response to the CTC I will take it a bit softer as usual :lol:

Little bit faster, little lower HR, less drift (nearly no), less uncomfortable. Right directing I would say.

Think you just need to slow it down a tad Stu and just get it finished.

low and slow today - got house full of guests arriving later tonight for the weekend & still have jobs to do before they arrive.

Think I managed to work out how I'm going to solve a data issue for a client - one method to read causes one problem with " characters, and the alternate then causes issues with ; as they have those in a few other fields.... (why do users use those chars in free text fields - I can tell they've never coded :lol: )

+1 on this. The seven minute piece is long enough to gain some time back, with another four minutes after. A strategic negative split approach on the 9:00/7:00/4:00 would still be a good workout.

CTC attempt number 2. A more sensible approach with the pacing paid off on the last set. Still limped across the line, mind, so just about right I think!

Great pacing!
Unfortunately I am nowhere near to go for a really hard effort, but I like this pattern, as the rests are long enough to recover a good bit. Without the issues I faced, I think I would've attacked this one multiple times :)
