Weird how it does that on the average but not on the main reading.

Yeah, I've only seen it do it on intervals so far, really throws me off when it happens though. I'm guessing it doesn't register the first stroke to the average so I'm playing a couple of seconds catchup from then on.

Pretty much a max session, unlike last week there was very little left at the end. I was starting to feel a little panicky about 5 sets in, it's a weird feeling I've had a couple of times before on particularly hard intervals. It's like oh crap, I'm feeling fooked and I've barely started, quite a claustrophobic feeling. Anyway, by about set 10 the end was in sight and I started to feel more normal again. HR was 149 going into the last set Eek. Pace looks a bit weird only ending in even numbers? Pace next week low 1:31??? f**k.

Top session!

How many weeks have you got left to keep squeezing out the gains?

Your HR is weird - how can it not be up in the 170s on a session like that??

Well it's about 4 weeks until that comp and 7 weeks of this program left, so plenty of pain, sorry, time left yet!

And I agree on the HR, it just likes to do the bare minimum and let the rest of my body suffer! Today though it was actually going up still when I finished the sets and although the max on the pm was 157 it went up to 160 a couple of times between sets.

Cheers jt, I felt like I could have done with a day off today, but that's not going to happen!

Although I have done some boarding and skimming in the past I am most definitely not a plasterer, sorry!

MY boarding skills 10 out of 10 My plastering skills 6/10. Its one of those skills that until you have tried it you don't realise how difficult it is.

You are better than me at both then Tongue I'm actually not too bad at skimming, so long as it's a big flat wall with no corners and you don't mind waiting Grin

Last weeks average pace was 1:37.7 so a nice improvement. I felt better than yesterday although the whole workout was pretty tough. Last set was a full on max where I blew up with about 30 seconds left, pace going over the line was 1:40 Eek HR on these was higher than the AN sets I did on Sunday... I suppose I should target under 1:37 pace on these for next week Roll-Eyes

Looks like the 500m pace did the thing with only even numbers again, weird.

You need to stop sandbagging your AN work though. Wink

Remember Loadsamoney?

well I got a guy £300 for the day harry was right.
I am sure I could become a good plasterer if I had a week with a pro.
I am also sure after a week with a pro I would no longer want to be a plasterer.

Great 2's again, you must of been going for 1.36 on the last one?

I do remember Loadsamoney, I'd forgotten he was a plaster though, makes sense as I've paid about that much for one recently! I laboured for a plasterer one summer holiday many years ago, lots of mixing, carrying and cleaning and not much money at all!

The pervious couple of sets had been so taxing I knew what was going to happen on the last set Grin I tried to get a couple of seconds buffer before my legs gave out, by the end I was just happy to get under 1:37.5, I very very nearly coasted the last 30 seconds.
