Friday Thoughts 73
Greetings! Welcome to this week’s edition of Friday Thoughts, where I share half-formed posts, work out idea and share some of my favorite things I saw on the internet over the past week. Enjoy!
garage door szn before garage door szn existed
March 2013. What can I say? I’ve always been a fan of gyms with garage doors, and knew I needed one when finding the perfect place for GAIN. This is from the first gym I worked at. Posted 12 years ago yesterday.
Cooking and Cleaning Progress Report
A couple months ago I posted this reel from Melissa Urban, founder of the Whole 30 saying that by the time dinner is ready, the kitchen is cleaned up. I’m a disaster and mess maker when I cook, so I took note and have been striving to clean up while cooking, and I’ve got to say it’s been a game changer.
It’s Working…
Below are two heart rate graphs from the same exact workout spaced apart 10 days from one another. A quick glance will tell you that the workout was executed the same, lots of little spikes and drops for recovery. When you look closely though, you’ll notice my heart rate didn’t get as high as the first effort. That would be irrelevant - there’s too many other factors to consider why that would happened alone - but I tracked my paces on the SkiErg, and on the second workout, I was faster each round (only by a second) and my heart rate didn’t get as high. This is why it’s important to track or know your paces on machines. It doesn’t feel like I accomplished anything, but the data confirms I’m getting more fit.
More Heart Rate Graphs
Here’s the my heart rate data from the Seacoast Ergathon. I did about 15 rounds of 90 seconds on 90 seconds rest, then we hammered the last 15 minutes transitioning every minute.
At Home Training
Coach T is looking to add some remote clients. Hit him up on Instagram if you know someone who would be perfect for this.
Thanks for reading, until next time!
