    Saturday.
    Around 7miles in total cycling to and from bootcamp. Really fun riding along the river today, no way of avoiding the puddles, so I embraced it and just went through them. Managed to move up 2 places as well in the standings on the way back along the river in strava.

    Bootcamp - urgh so hard, lots of running. In fact we did one of the workouts she regularly gets me doing, thought I'd got away with it this week. Obviously not....
    Run
    50 squat jumps
    Run
    50 press ups
    Run
    50 sit ups
    Run
    50 toe taps

    Plus death by burpee.

    Such a nice day that I brought the rower outside and put on the back deck so my dogs could play and see the sunshine instead of being in a small room with me while I row (one of the few times they are in their crates).

    The one is Floyd, my son's Pug/Bichon Frise mix. He's staying with us until my son settles in after a recent move to San Diego. I saved the wrong pic, he was actually smiling in the one. Can't see them really well, but the Tortolita Mountains are in the background. We see them from one side (they are a smaller range North of Tucson) and from a different angle, we see the Catalinas (much more dramatic range that Tucson is known for). The valley is really green for miles below us. I don't have water access but at least I have some lovely views I'll take advantage of this Winter.

    Did a 30 minute row, wiped off, then a 25 minute one after. Around 12K total meters.

    Guy I went to college with took a year off in college to study astronomy at a lab in Antarctica. He took an erg. He took a photo of himself from a distance on an erg on the Tundra. It was so cool. It ended up as a cover photo for US rowing. You should take a drone and do the same shot in the desert!

    I walk to my gym(roughly 15 minutes one way) so I count that as a warm up

    Strength Training:
    Leg Press
    Plank Row(I love rows, and this was a new exercise for me, I think I will soon come to love this when I get better at it)
    Hip Thrusts w/ Smith Machine(easier than I thought they would be!)
    Shoulder Press
    Alternating Leg Mountain Climbers(These were uncomfortable, debating if I should do these again)

    Cardio:
    21 mins

    00:00-01:30 = 12 incline, 3.3 speed
    01:30-02:00 = 6 incline, 3.3 speed

    02:00-03:00 = 6 incline, 5.5 speed
    03:00-04:00 = 6 incline, 3.3 speed
    04:00-04:30 = 12 incline, 3.3 speed
    04:30-05:00 = 6 incline 3.3 speed
    x4

    12:00-14:00 = 6 incline, 3.3 speed
    14:00-16:00 = 15 incline, 3.3 speed

    Automated Treadmill Cooldown(5 minutes)

    Walk home 15 minutes(I try my best to speed walk since I’m extremely sweaty afterwards and can’t wait to take a shower)!

    My normal 90 minute cardio at the gym turned into 2 hours today as the wife wanted to spend X-tra time in the sauna. I don't want to upset her and tell her the difference between a 90 minute cardio session and a 120 one is quite a bit different!! Around 40 minutes on the rower, 15 minutes on the Endless Rope Machine, 30 minutes on the Stairmaster, 30 on the Spinner and some other stuff like some KB swings, pushups (around 100) and overhead presses.

    Legs were pretty tore up before I even got out of the gym. Got home and did windows and some other work around the house then we jumped in the pool (it's like 65 degrees!) and then in the hot tub. It was as good as an ice bath, honestly. I'm working on cold tolerance at the moment -- really supposed to help with inflammation.

    I lifted yesterday. I went light on bench, just under 2*bodyweight for deadlift, for 2 sets of 5 for the DL. I also did some hangboard stuff and some facepulls.

    Today, I did:
    Yoga for some time (I didn't accurately time it.)
    15000 steps
    75 minutes bouldering - a good session. I got a few new routes.
    30 minutes swimming.

    Stretching before and after
    Considered my active rest day
