    Decided to listen to my Garmin Gremlin since we have officially hit taper time. My normal 3 and Coffee run with my kiddos turned into a 2 mile Munchkins and Meandering walk 😆

    Monday: 5 min. Helix Trainer, then 40 min. on the elliptical set at a grade of 10 with some minutes at setting 12-14. A few years ago, I always set it at 3 for grade and speed. Things have changed! And my HR stayed in zone 1-2 so maybe I could have done more.

    Today: sadly, no early bike ride because it was still too dark before 7 am. Twenty-five min. on the stationary bike at the gym this afternoon, then 25 min. calisthenics / strength, 45 min. walking outside in 4 sections, two with the dog. She's limping some, even with the arthritis shot the vet gave her last week and pain meds twice a day. :( But she loves nothing better than going out, so that's what we'll keep doing as long as possible.

    Today is my non swim rest day where I switch to Heavy lift with focus on smaller upper body muscle groups. Biceps x 2 types. Triceps x 2 types. Shoulder. Standing row. Stomach. Lower back curls. Shrugs. Farmers walk. So 1 warm up at half weight at 20 reps. Then three ascending weight sets 12-10-8. Super set no break. 1hour. Hopping from 1 muscle group to the next This gives me 300 working reps. And 200 warm up easy reps total. Then 30 mins graduated uphill treadmill walk. Max at 4.0. No running allowed. 90 mins total.

    Cardio (Warmup): Stationary bike intervals, 5.8 mi

    Strength: Pull Day

    BB Row 5x5
    Cable Row 4x15
    Pulldown 4x10 (wide grip, narrow, reverse, neutral)
    BB Shrug 3x10
    Face Pull 3x10 (3s pause)
    Preacher Curl 4x10, 15, 20, 25
    Hanging Knee Raises 2x25 «superset» Plank 2x90s

    Thought I might try a different cardio warmup today, opted for the bike. Legs proved up to the task, but gotta say that (TMI) my *kitten* did NOT appreciate the seat, especially when my legs were moving. Think I'll say thanks, but no thanks to the bike going forward.

    Most of us go through an adjustment period with bike riding but it gets easier after a few weeks.

    Your "warmup" was longer than my bike session yesterday!

    29 min swim, 800 meters. I need to start counting laps again. I think my watch misses 1-2 in every pool workout.

    Tuesday: Row, barge, 4 seat on port side, 4.8k. Zone 2 and below.
    Wednesday: Row, quad, 3 seat, 7.4k. About 1/3 each of zone 1-2-3.

    I usually don't row at open rowing, just help other people carry boats and gemerally supervise the session. Tonight, though, I hopped in a recreational single for a short row, because our coach offered to do video snippets and review them with us. Just 3.4k, mostly zone 2 but a few minutes of zone 3 and even a touch of 4.

    I need to work on getting full body swing and arm extension before the wheels really get rolling on the recovery, and also keep my arms (especially the right arm) straight longer at the end of the drive until body swing is nearly complete.

Lunges throughout. 25 minutes walking outside.

    Oh, yeah . . . more rowing, 6.8k in stroke seat of a double, about a quarter of the time zone 3, remainder below.

    No row tomorrow, Saturday: There's a big head race most of the day on our river (yes, rowers). I'm a volunteer worker, not racing myself, so probably lots of walking at least. Regular rest day Sunday.

    Cardio Warmup: Jogging (Two miles)

    Strength: Lower Body Day

    Squat 4x10
    Rack Pull 5x5, 1x1 New Personal Best!
    Hack Squat 3x20
    Seated Calf Raises 2x10, 2x20
    Leg Extensions 2x12
    Seated Leg Curl 2x12
    Machine Crunches 3x15

    My gym had signs out promising five new pieces of leg equipment coming this next week, and has started to move existing equipment around to make room. No idea what the equipment will do, just know the weights section is a bit of a hot mess right now.

    No planned workout for tomorrow, my church choir is having a retreat to get a first look at the music we will be performing for our Christmas concert in December.
