    Saturday

    Diving. We got a couple of harbour wreck dives in. The wind was strong, so we couldn't do anything more ambitious.

    Sunday

    Another harbour wreck. Cracking dive; loads of nudibranch and flatworms.

    Monday

    Climbing

    I have a competition on Saturday; this was practice. It was good; I got four v4s including a monkey-bar style overhang that was really good fun.

    @nossmf -- Different gym but same experience ("who ARE all these people?" kept going through my mind). My gym closed at 2 today, so that was an additional factor.

    Cardio- I got in a 30 min treadmill run at 5.2 with one sprint of 6.3 mph. Incline walking for 10 min at 4-5%, then a 3.2 mph pace at 1% for another 10 min.

    Strength /calisthenics - 25 min with 2 sets biceps curls and lat raises, foam rolling in between, three sets walking lunges and various stretches.

    Kinda torn this morning. Thinking I want to do a chest/back day. But I also need to get my run miles in since its storms in our forecast most of this week.

    Cardio: 44 minutes stationary bike, almost 10 miles, with 2 minutes on the Helix to warm up. Every mile I try to peddle standing for 10-15 seconds, and when I do I'm starting to see muscle separation just above my knees. Who knew you could make new gains at 49 yo???

    Then strength: 2 sets skullcrushers, 2 sets 60 sec planks, 2 sets bird dogs, 1 set walking lunges, 1 set heel lifted squats.

    Leg Day (new routine)

    Squat 4x10

    I've been doing leg day on Saturday for months now, almost a year actually, with the day after spent in leisure around the house. Doing it today on a Wednesday, followed by a full day of work, is odd to say the least. Will have to make it a point to walk around the office more between meetings, prevent my legs from stiffening up.

    I wanted to get in some run miles but the storms and rain said otherwise. So today's workout is going to be a cardio day. Elliptical, stationary bike, stretching and foam rolling.

    Climbing, 2.5 hours.

    I started really badly. There was a V3 slab that took 45 minutes, but I eventually got it. (The crux was a reverse flag letting me reach a small crimp.) After that, it was a pretty good session with a couple of v4s.

    Basically a "rest from cardio" day for me, possibly one of many to come. My rectus femoris (upper quad) muscle is hurting and typically, I've started trying to address the issue a week later than I should have. Driving my kids around town with an ice pack held tightly to my leg. Geez.

    Exercise: 25 minutes gardening, 10 minutes walking the dog (that hurt), 16 minutes strength training with free weights, sit-ups, definitely no squats!

    I haven't reported in a while.

    M 5/26, W 5/28, F 5/30: Rowed the usual near-7k, in the quad each time, engine room twice, bow once. Varied intensities, mostly split between zone 2 and 3.

    Th 5/29: Hour of stationary bike, 60' + 3' CD, 107W average, supposedly 16.6 miles at 15.8 mph. About a quarter of the time zone 4, over half zone 3, remainder below.

    This was the last week of evening open rowing until July, but I'll be assisting the learn-to-row coach 4 evenings a week in June, with probably some rowing myself, and lots of boat carrying and other support work.
