    Supersets in my garage lifting gym for 30 minutes (8 sets of shoulders, chest, legs -- all compound movements), then 10 X 90 second sprints/60 seconds rest on the Assault Bike. Good for around 825 calories in an hour.

    I usually try to hit 90% on nearly every sprint and then exceed in the last few. Just didn't have it today. Hit like 88% on first 8 and then barely 90% and 89% on last two. Couldn't push through any more pain than that. Still, all in all, a solid workout.

    Ann -- I know that you miss OTW rowing every year. I'm sorry that's come to an end this year for you!

    There was rowing this morning, but I volunteered to cox the quad, so I was just sitting still fiddling with steering lines, wearing extra layers against the just-above-freezing air temp.

    Back at home, I did 3 x 2K on, 2' off on the rowing machine. Unlike Mike's 2K repeats usually are, these were moderate intensity (though my HR reading from my chest belt + tracker looked whacky - I think I need some updated hardware).

    I do think my HR got higher than I'd like to see on pieces that slow (I was trying to hold around 2:30, hit each someplace in the 2:29.X area, at spm in the lower 20s) . . . but not nearly as high a HR as the device claimed (161, which is the top end of Z4 - didn't have those feelz at all, probably actually somewhere in 140s, bottom of Z4, in 2nd & 3rd pieces).

    In the "off" bits, I row out for a few strokes, drink some water (and in this instance coffee!), then row easy for the rest of the 2' off: Usually well over half the 2' is rowed, just easy pace, and the last one is rowed out fully at easy pace as CD.

    For amusement value: Concept 2's calorie estimate (for the 2k parts only) was 286 (weight adjusted), Garmin's (which included the "off" parts (646m) and the HR weirdness) was 250. 🤷‍♀️ Close enough not to care, for me.

    20 minutes on the elliptical, 20 minutes on the stairclimber (I climbed 50 floors!), and then about 30 minutes of strength training, focusing mostly on arms/back/abs.

    Light treadmill ... only 23 minutes. Unfortunately, my knees continue to bother me so I have to go light at the moment.

    Cold - near freezing - again, frost on the ground and dock, but nice flat water and some sunshine, so rowed bow in the double again, just under 7k.

    I don't go to the gym on the weekends, but I did enjoy a 3 mile hike with my mom.

    A 5km run today in 34min39 - started at 8kph increasing gradually to 10kph. I've really been making progress with increasing my running speed lately: ever since my outdoor runs on holiday where I realised I can run faster than I think, I've been pushing myself more.

    I did my usual Elliptical but did more time than what I've been doing (2.5 hours). Did 3 hours 10 minutes today. It came to 15 miles. I was watching a movie part ways through then started the next of the series and figured I would finish it. Hoping to drop tomorrow into the 170's.

    A short easy run this morning - 4km in 30 minutes - to burn some calories before a lunch with my parents at a restaurant. 9000 steps by noon, not bad 🙂
    I'll probably take a walk with my parents after lunch, but that'll be slow going as usual (my mom gets out of breath very easily), usually 5-6000 steps.
