30 minutes of weights, 45 minutes on the trainer.0

Just found this thread as I don't frequent the forums. But I need something to help keep me on track. The workouts are not a problem. It's the nutrition I have a hard time with. Seems impossible to lose the last 15 lbs. I just get so hungry after my workouts that I eat like crazy and tend to make some less than optimal choices.
Today's workout was 2200 yd swim 44 minutes with no drills and no rest. Just want to set a baseline at the distance for comparison. Followed by a 6 miles run at 8 min/ miles with 2 at 7min/mile. The run felt great as I've been having some glute pain that didn't bother me today.
Planning a couple sprints, one Oly and my A race in July is a 70.3 with a goal time of 5:02:00. Probably out of my range but if I can drop the last of the weight and stay on the training plan I might be able to pull it off.0 -
Today's run: 10 min w/u, 3 x (20 min all out, 3 min recovery), run to completion.
Looked and saw 2 mile repeats on the schedule for next week. Blech.0 -

I'm hoping by getting on here and seeing what everyone is doing will help me start my training up. Been out of training this year but have big plans for 2014. Makes me want to get my bike out seeing this.

Yesterday: strength training (I'm doing New Rules of Lifting Supercharged), then 30 minutes easy on the spin bike at the gym.
Plan today is for running intervals on the basement dreadmill (30 minutes).
I finally got a replacement HRM for my Garmin- now I'm trying to figure out my heart rate zones, but there's so much conflicting info...0 -

The easiest field test is the way Joel Friel suggests setting your zones.

I prefer to have more data from my clients when I set their zones. So I'll have them do run tests with multiple intervals (distance/time dependent on fitness level). Generally I use a 15-20 minute w/u run and then go 4 x 1 mile repeats with 3 minute rest in between or 3 x 15 minute repeats with the same amount of rest. At that point you take the average HR of each interval and average those together to get a more accurate estimation of you lactate threshold heart rate. You should retest every 6-8 weeks. HR zones change with your fitness level.0 -

Knee is acting up and I had recovery work scheduled for today so I took today off.0

Been feeling rubbish, a recovery week, and an unmotivated one. Got in one of each sbr
Now done what I wanted to do - 2 sports in one day. About 18 min run and the same swim.
I'm just starting multisport and I'm due on, but a few weeks ago i did 750m freestyle in a row almost... With few rests... A couple of weeks ago I ran 7 miles in 11mm
I ran HM's in 2010.
I don't feel worth it if I don't do 2 sports and / or my maximum. I've heard it said you should stick w one sport till you can do no more good . Is this right?
I think I need to go back to therapy.0 -
