    Things have been kinda rough with the gym closures, but I'm still finding a way to get it done. Yesterday hit biceps and core with the dumbbells / plates I have at home, today I'll probably do a full-body workout incorporating dumbbells, resistance bands, and bodyweight exercises! Hope everyone is well.

    Dynamic stretches
    Burpees
    Band stuff
    Squat (5 sets of 5, 70kgs)
    Deadlift (5 sets of 5, 100 kgs)
    Lunges
    Pistols
    Yoga

    Love KBs, but haven't been able to do that much of it with the back recovery. That's a pretty killer "off day". You might pay for that one a bit this week! Nice work Matt!

    Did half my upper body workout this morning but then absolutely crashed. I think I may be under-fueling. Hoping to finish the other half after lunch.

    Did 10 min abs. Thinking ab adding this to my routine.

    Maybe a walk if I feel up to it later.

    That's a select skill set, never mind fitness routine.

    Did a small and fast (for me!) 3km run to the supermarket to pick up a surprise pack. I'd planned to run another 5k, but once I reached the market place I was hit from the front by a sudden storm. No idea where that came from. Maybe the open square. Anyway... I fought against the wind, went once around the square and gave up at 3km. Still fastest 3k in ages.

    Did 5 minute warm up on the rower, then 5 minutes as hard as reasonably sustainable. Repeat for an hour. Went deep in the pain cave today. Around 1000 calories burrned in an hour. Haven't done a row that hard in a while. Was fairly brutal. Took my foot off the gas on the last interval a bit. I was at 90% of max HR on all the intervals and started drifting above (something that they tell masters rowers not to do with Covid-19 as working out too hard can lower immunity), so I took it a bit easier on the last one. Roughly 2:08 to 2:10 paces on the intervals and 2:38 paces on the easy paddling. Over 12K meters for the hour.

    Looking at all these workouts, I have only ran around in my garden with my children and then done a 10min HiiT workout that was on YouTube

    That sounds like a fun and active day to me!

    Today's recovery bike session was scrapped in favor of a 3 mile walk with my wife. :) Reason is that my June 70.3 distance triathlon has been postponed, which was not completely unexpected.

    I've had a particularly good training block going over during the last 8 weeks, after spending the winter rebuilding my base fitness lost due to injury. My current fitness is approximately one month ahead of the same period in 2018 during an Ironman build.

    So the question is, what to do? I'd hate to simply give up cycling and run fitness, but I will drop back volume a notch while deciding whether to sign up for a fall race. It's hard to maintain enthusiasm for another16-20 more weeks of a periodized build, even for a long course race, but Ironman has cancelled most (if not all) races until then.

    Just another "ho hum" day! I knew it was fake news, because only alligators live in the Everglades. :smile:

    That would be devastating. I couldn't compete this past Winter because I wasn't recovered all the way yet (enough) to have competitive times for the few events I targeted, way less competitive and demanding than what you do.

    I'm not sure what I'd tell you but perhaps there's a virtual Ironman that you can find and compete in. I know some really talented OTW (over the water) rowers that are losing the entire season that are replacing with indoor erging on videos, virtually.

    Is this a possibility for you?
