    Did 90 minutes (60 rowing and 30 LateralX) yesterday -- all pretty easy stuff and 60 today on the rower. Though today, something was off -- again -- with my HRM. It showed normal but I felt like I was working significantly harder than it was showing. It showed almost all the workout under 65% max and then right at the end spiked up 10 beats, which is where it felt like I was the entire workout.

    Around 12K today. Planning a harder one tomorrow so hopefully the HRM blip won't hinder how hard I can go tomorrow. No biggie, I'll just play it by ear.

    I'm only on week 2 back in the gym. But this morning I did back and treadmill. It feels so amazing to be back!

    30 min. Elliptical at zone 3 and below, followed by my cautiously optimistic strength training routine. :smiley:
    Push-ups (I was able to do a lower incline today. I'll see how the shoulder feels tomorrow.)
    Dumbell rows - very light weight
    Planks and supermans with increased times.

    So far, so good....

    Yesterday, I did an hour's yoga; a morning walk; an hour's climb on my home wall; and finally an evening walk. The climbing was good. I think I kept my HR between 120 and 140 for 70 minutes, so I did work. (The home wall is more like strength training than cardio, so I am happy with this.) My crimp strength was good; my dynos were ropey although I eventually got everything I went for.

    Around 20 minutes of yoga/stretch before breakfast.

    6,831 meters rowing machine as 3x(2k on, 2' off/CD), easy pace, 2:32.9 and 19spm, focus on relaxing unnecessary muscles within adequate mechanics, Z3 & below.

    26 minutes strength training, still light weights for conditioning reasons, but went to 3x10 on most sets rather than 2 x 10, increased weight on a couple. If things feel OK by next time, will start selectively increasing reps/weights.

    Felt fatigued today for no obvious reason despite rest day Sunday, so put off the row/lift stuff until after 9PM, but finally convinced myself it wasn't optional. 🙄

    Nicely done. I smiled as I read the part in bold, imagining the "self talk" that went on until you decided to get it done. I've had days where I decided early in the day to skip a session, then spent so much time fretting about the thought of missing it, that I gave in and did the workout late in the evening. :D

    Tuesday is a gym day. Worked on bike/swim muscle groups: KB deadlifts, rows, split squats, overhead band pulls while lying on floor, (band attached to weight bench), Also did some core stuff: mtn climbers, swimmers, etc.

    Ran a slow 5k during the lunch hour to maintain my standing in a daily outdoor run/walk challenge.

    My rowing club has a 10K and a 6K this month to do. I've skipped the last two months with Covid and was debating doing the 10K today. Got around 5K in and just couldn't keep the pace so finished with 2K X 2 w/ 1 minute rests. HR hit 94% max on one interval.

    If the HRM is accurate (and it seemed accurate today on HR at least), around 900+ calories for the hour today. It felt like it too. Full hour of pushing about as hard as I could.

    Also trying to get back to lifting but working back slow. I'll try to get in around 6 rounds of pushups, either KB swings or deadlifts and shoulder presses. 3 already done, 3 more to do.

    Wow. That is a massive effort, my friend! Just thinking of 600cal/hr efforts on the bike has me sweating. A total body effort such as you performed for an hour would leave me on the floor. Very impressive.

    4 mile treadmill jog. Nice way to get rid of some liquid stress. Clothes soaked completely.
