Post Edited: 10.06.2021 @ 19:33 PM by Bim It can get pretty warm in there but I have a decent fan.Thursday 10/06/21 Row - 1k WU, 2x2 min TR, 1k CD Time Meters Pace Watts Cal/Hr S/M HR 3:50.4 1,006m 1:54.5 233 1102 25 125 Time Meters Pace Watts Cal/Hr S/M HR 2:00.0 634m 1:34.6 413 1721 32 146 1:00.0 318m 1:34.3 417 1734 32 142 2:00.0 317m 1:34.6 413 1721 31 151 Time Meters Pace Watts Cal/Hr S/M HR 2:00.0 634m 1:34.6 413 1721 32 149 1:00.0 318m 1:34.3 417 1734 32 144 2:00.0 317m 1:34.6 413 1721 32 154 Time Meters Pace Watts Cal/Hr S/M HR 4:22.3 1,010m 2:09.8 160 850 23 127 I've shuffled the sessions about slightly so I have a steady UT2 the day before rather than some AN. TR today was pretty much as expected. | |||

| Cheers all! Jt I left the foot holders just as normal. I'll have a faf about after the end of the program, gaining even 0.1 second on a better start seems something worth doing. I see what you mean macroth, I could definitely up the rate a little at the start. Yesterday Run 20 min UT1 / 2 Row - 2x12 min UT2 Time Meters Pace Watts Cal/Hr S/M HR 24:00.0 6,560m 1:49.7 265 1211 22 150 12:00.0 3,282m 1:49.6 265 1212 22 147 12:00.0 3,278m 1:49.8 264 1209 22 152 It's happening to me as well jt! High HR for this set. Monday 07/06/21 Row - 12 min UT1 Time Meters Pace Watts Cal/Hr S/M HR 15:00.0 4,105m 1:49.6 266 1214 22 142 3:00.0 822m 1:49.4 267 1217 22 133 6:00.0 822m 1:49.4 267 1217 22 141 9:00.0 820m 1:49.7 265 1211 21 143 12:00.0 821m 1:49.6 266 1214 22 147 15:00.0 820m 1:49.7 265 1211 21 147 Same as yesterday, higher HR than usual, feeling decent enough though. | |||

| Great work jt, very nice pb! Must have been tough starting that with the HD demons in your head. 180 at 92kg would be quite something. I'd be tempted to up the bodyweight a little and do a small water cut, but that's just me | |||

Post Edited: 05.06.2021 @ 21:39 PM by Bim Kids are great, but they can also be (very!) tiring Personally on the C2 I need a pretty rigid training structure with some solid goals to aim for. Without that I would drift / lose interest I think, I couldn't see me getting on the C2 and knocking out 4x15 min UT1 or 6x3 min TR without a program telling me to. I don't think there is anything wrong with just doing what you fancy when you fancy it for a while though, it should be more enjoyable for sure. Oh and 180 would be fantastic, what are you weighing at the moment? | |||

| Cheers macroth, jt! I need some practice on fast starts macroth, I think I need to shorten the first couple of strokes a little, let me know what you think on the vid. I wasn't trying to hold back at all. And when you put it like that 0.4s seems like a lot to improve Jt, that did actually cross my mind after the 500. I think I am better at 1k than 2k but then again I have to give 6:20 my best shot I think. I'm going to be more busy with work soon and don't think it's likely I'll be able to commit to a program like Rathburn again for a while.

Post Edited: 04.06.2021 @ 16:29 PM by Bim That's exactly what I thought after I had finished it! A reasonably tough set, and to think I need to go 5 seconds /500m faster is a little daunting.Friday 4/06/21 Row - 2x1k WU, 2x500m AN, 1k CD Time Meters Pace Watts Cal/Hr S/M HR 3:56.0 1,013m 1:56.4 221 1062 25 135 Time Meters Pace Watts Cal/Hr S/M HR 1:20.6 500m 1:20.6 668 2600 45 124 0:15.8 100m 1:19.0 710 2743 45 106 0:15.6 200m 1:17.9 738 2838 46 109 0:15.9 300m 1:19.5 697 2697 45 124 0:16.4 400m 1:22.0 635 2484 44 141 0:16.8 500m 1:24.0 591 2332 46 141 Time Meters Pace Watts Cal/Hr S/M HR 1:24.8 500m 1:24.8 574 2275 41 124 0:17.1 100m 1:25.5 560 2227 42 107 0:16.8 200m 1:24.0 591 2332 39 117 0:16.9 300m 1:24.5 580 2296 39 126 0:16.9 400m 1:24.5 580 2296 43 135 0:17.0 500m 1:25.0 570 2261 42 135 Time Meters Pace Watts Cal/Hr S/M HR 5:49.1 1,009m 2:52.9 68 532 18 110 Thought I should be able to do a decent 500m pb so went for it from the start. Felt pretty awesome until about the 300m mark when things went downhill reasonably quickly I think 1:26 was on the screen as I finished so I didn't blow up as badly as I thought I might. Anyway, happy with 1:20.6 although the bas***d monitor did say 1:20.5! I was stuffed even after 10+ minutes rest and just tried to keep the second set under 1:25 pace. Hopeful I'll have another attempt at this in a couple of weeks time, I think it was a decent attempt but the legs aren't 100% yet from the last few days, it has nothing at all to do with macroth being 0.2 ahead of me Just checked, 1st world ranking | |||

| Cheers macroth, it was just what I needed, first day off the rower since Xmas day! Great time in the lakes, a few hours walking each day with a decent pack on and I'm reasonably achy in a few places Thursday 03/06/21 After sorting out what sessions I've missed I'm swapping a couple about to drop UT1 and UT2 instead of a couple of the faster sessions this week. So today I did: Row - 1k WU, 6 min AT, 1k CD Time Meters Pace Watts Cal/Hr S/M 3:50.2 1,005m 1:54.5 233 1101 26 126 Time Meters Pace Watts Cal/Hr S/M 6:38.8 2,000m 1:39.7 353 1515 30 151 1:39.8 500m 1:39.8 352 1511 31 143 1:39.7 1,000m 1:39.7 353 1515 30 151 1:39.6 1,500m 1:39.6 354 1519 30 153 1:39.6 2,000m 1:39.6 354 1519 30 157 Time Meters Pace Watts Cal/Hr S/M 4:51.3 1,010m 2:24.2 117 701 21 115 Went just above AT on the last split. Felt ok, I need a decent kip though and a few steady days, which is luckily what I have got! | |||
