Hey guys,
I decided to chase a new pb for 6k this morning - my old one was from last June (woefully outdated - I’ve come a long way since then)

Now I think the skierg times get into a range, where I can start putting them in here 😇

Today the typical 15min skierg warmup

Code: Select all

Time	Meters	Pace	Watts	Cal/Hr	S/M	♥️
15:00.0	3,665m	2:02.7	189	950	30	158
3:00.0	724m	2:04.3	182	927	30	148
6:00.0	731m	2:03.1	188	945	30	156
9:00.0	729m	2:03.4	186	940	30	160
12:00.0	736m	2:02.2	191	958	30	162
15:00.0	746m	2:00.6	199	985	30	168
After that a 500m attempt:

Code: Select all

Time	Meters	Pace	Watts	Cal/Hr	S/M	♥️
1:33.4	500m	1:33.4	430	1778	57	165
0:18.8	100m	1:34.0	421	1750	57	159
0:18.2	200m	1:31.0	464	1898	56	165
0:18.4	300m	1:32.0	449	1846	59	165

0:19.2	500m	1:36.0	396	1661	56	169
Could improve my last time by 0.8s 💪🏻😄

I find the skierg so much harder compared to the rowErg. My warmup pace from skierg on the rower is about 20 beats lower in HR 😵

Thx Stu, I tried to fight the decline by upping the rate, but it wasn't happening 😄
Anyway, very pleased with the result!

Didn't break any speed records but thanks to that January Team Challenge I rowed a total of 837,401 meters in one month, which included back to back 1/2 centuries on Jan 29th & 30th. That's going to be a tough endurance record for me to beat.
