Achievement seems to be connected with action.
Successful men and women keep moving.
They make mistakes, but they don't quit.

    Had to sub SDHP for rows since someone in the gym claimed the only rower and decided to do a slow 8k. Each set of 100 SDHP took ~3min.

    Shut it down after first set. Finished 5th of 5 night shifts, only slept about 5-6 hours for 5th night, and the beginning of the second set felt totally off -- could not generate any force, everything felt stiff. Will stretch and get massage today, get ready for tomorrow.

    2) 3:34.4
    3) 3:36.4
    4) 3:30.01

    Man oh man. I really tried to keep the first one at 95% and I think it was because I definitely held back but...5 minutes is just not enough for me to recover on a 1K. This happened at regionals, where I rowed a 1:18 500m and had 6 min rest but I was DONE after the first set. Need to work on recover and spacing out better sets.

    That smoked me...I was all over the place. The first one was probably right between 90 and 95%. I tried to maintain that on the second and fell apart; not nearly enough time to recover for me at this stage. Probably went out too slow on #3 and #4.

    My back was messed up today, I think it was from squating yesterday, but I'm not sure. I can barely stand up straight, but thought the row might loosen it up so I just took it easy. Feels a little better.

  30. WOW new site graphics I absolutely LOVE it especially because one of my goals for 2010/2011 have now been met - i have made the main page blog picture - albeit in the back ground but still there - yes that is me sporting the Big Dawgs shirt doing what looks like a pathetic burpee!!!

    More snatch, clean, back squat work for me today technique is feeling better but am very very sore, I am really feeling my month off and extra 5 pounds.

  37. Very impressive DJ.

    2011

    Still keeping the intensity dialed back this week.

    3:52/224avg watts
    3:49/231avg watts
    I was barely breathing heavy after the first two so I ramped it up a little for the last two
    3:30/298
    3:32/294

    The last two were somewhere in the 70% range.

    Delray FL is a 12 hour drive from my house. It's closer than Calgary but still far enough that I have to schedule time off work and convince the wife. I am working on the latter part now!

    Goal going into this was to hold 1:40 for all rounds. I knew this was going to be painful before I even got started. Rolled around on the ground after rounds 3 and 4 because legs were throwing a temper tantrum on me. Short but brutal workout.

  69. phatty, the rest times and intensities giver should have been enough to recover which means that you have to figure out what your 95% means so that you can back off a bit and still maintain the same output per set

    That was brutal.

    3:26.5, 3:29.3, 3:29.6, 3:29.9. Initially, I wanted to try to keep 1:41.6 (95% of my PR). Not a chance. Felt wasted.

    My legs were shot after the first one, and I battled to keep good form (back upright, steady rhythm).
    2011: performed 7/14
    My avg. splits were 1:43.6, 1:44.6, 1:44.8, 1:44.9.

    After the first one, my goal was to stay sub-3:30. Made it by the skin of my teeth. The last round panic breathing set in with about 600m left. I was actually really pleased I detached mentally and could relax into it and maintain. Trying to get more comfortable with the uncomfortable.

    Still working a week behind because of scheduling. Going to try to go current starting tomorrow.

    3:19.7; 3:21.7; 3:21.7; 3:22.3

    Pace stayed pretty consistent: from a low of 1:39.9 to a high of 1:41.2. Hard to find 95%, but I think this was about right.
