It has been a while, probably 2 or 3 years since posting and being anything resembling fit. Nevertheless, each month I have studiously done the CTC for the FFs and between 10 and 50k erg work or OTW in small boats. Not much to write about.
Last month was different, for some reason I got stuck into some SS erg, nearly 200k and a couple of short paddles in a single. I seemed to get on a roll 14 days (5 in a row) of 10k @ 2:15 r23ish and a few very brief efforts 250m or 1' with few reps.
Form good, connection OK - leaking power at the catch, rhythm nah, not yet.
Breathing sort of OK, not stressed at all but tired legs. Maybe another month of the same?

2nd Dec 1k wu then 10k @2:14 R23 - hot and humid - the 2nd day of summer here

First time doing a Pete Plan session for far too long. 5 x 1500 4r and I was too cautious on the last interval and too eager on the penultimate interval

Welcome back from another member who went AWOL for a bit although you have been doing much more erging than me.
Summer and singles sounds good. It will be Easter before I get back in a single once light enough in the evenings again.

First go at Dec CTC. Played it slightly safe to make sure I got a time in but certainly not comfortable. Not quite enough rest on this session for me. Still, got another 4 weeks to go again.

That's how it goes, don't forget to put it to some good use though.

Sure. During my gym sessions I do some sharp short stuff as well, don't post it every time.
If all goes well, I'll go for some TT end of the month/after new year.

12/1 (am) - Incline Treadmill Walk; 60:00, 15% incline, 3mph, 10kg weighted pack.

12/1 (pm) - Strength Work; 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, 300 walking lunges (per leg) w/ 10kg vest in 60:00.

12/2 - Strength Work; 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, 300 walking lunges (per leg) w/ 10kg vest in 39:57. PR. This is right around my prior best time but with 100 more lunges per leg (200 total). I timed a few of my walking lunge sets and they averaged right around 75 secs per 15 steps per leg. In theory, this would shave off close to 8:00 or so from the prior PR I was tracking back in July / August and hoping to get under 30:00 some day so not terribly far off. While a true Murph is 300 squats as opposed to 300 lunges (per leg), I personally like lunges a lot more and they seem to like me more as well with how my ankles, knees, and hips feel after. I might give a modified Murph a go here in the next week or so - 1 mile run, 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, 300 lunges (per leg), 1 mile run w/ 10kg vest shooting for under 60:00.

12/3 - Strength Work; 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, 300 walking lunges (per leg) w/ 10kg vest in 60:00.

12/4 - Strength Work; 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, 300 walking lunges (per leg) w/ 10kg vest in 60:00.
