30 mins of active recovery cardio - felt inspired on my usual rest day.3

Did roughly 50 minutes of steady state (moderately easy) cardio. First half on the LateralX and then second part on the Assault Bike. These will likely be my two main cardio workouts for a week or two. Even though I enjoy the rowing machine the best, on easy days, it's much easier to control the HR with these two machines. I had no issues keeping the HR right around 62% to 67% max. Much more challenging to keep it that low on the rower.
Rowers that are way more experienced than I am tend to keep it between 60% and 65% max HR on their "base" days so they can push it really hard on the interval and distance timed pieces.3 -

Gym session again this am. Stability and core work. Swiss ball rollouts, curls w/squats, TRX rows, dumbbell back flys (1 leg extended off ground), med ball pass throughs, etc. 1 min assault bike between rounds.
Just signed up for a 6 week combo spin class/core session on Sundays. Its a 75 minute spin followed by 15min core workout led by one of my training partners. A group of friends who I've named "The Torture Sisters" have signed up as well, so it should be both painful and fun.4 -

Always like riding with wet leaves on the trails (makes it kinda exciting ).... /end sarcasm1 -
Intended to do strength training today, but want feeling it. So I did some fairly leisurely rowing (3584m in 20min) and then a short walk on the treadmill.2

One hour pulling out the plants from the garden and flower bed. I am so feeling it now. But all movement is good movement.3

Today, about half an hour stationary bike . . . that's probably a sign that I'm starting to resign myself to the oncoming cold season, though I do hope to row tomorrow morning.
Yesterday, another one of those non-workout workouts: I spent two hours or so with fellow rowing club members scrubbing out the rowing barge and putting it away on land for the Winter. The photo below is part of the group at work, with only me recognizable in the photo since I didn't ask others if I could post. (I'm the frizzy-haired one in the oversized gray jacket, of course.)
The whole thing is about 6 feet or so wide, 50 or so feet long. It's actually 4 separable sections bolted together. While some of us scrubbed it out, the university women's varsity team's boatman took off the bolts/plates and tied the sections together with webbing straps. Then it was towed with a small outboard-powered launch down to the public boat ramp. There, it was winched up 2 sections at a time onto a good-sized boat trailer. The trailer was driven to a landing spot on sheets of wood behind the women's boathouse, where we group-lifted one section at a time to it off the trailer, then tip it over upside down (controlling the drop by holding straps as it rotated), and setting each section on cement blocks so oarlocks were off the ground. Four sections flipped onto blocks, and we were done. It was clearly not a workout, but fairly active: I have slightly sore muscles from some efforts with body parts I don't usually stress. 😉
Did I mention that it was a beautiful, calm Fall evening on the river? It was.
