Row 3 x 6 minutes (actively recover 3 minutes between intervals) (HR <165)
1. 1,447 meters; 2.04.3 (23) (158)
2. 1,450 meters; 2.04.1 (23) (163)
3. 1,458 meters; 2.03.4 (23) (165)
Notes: Compare with August 26th. Just what the doctor ordered: some pretty intense aerobic work, but nothing that should bleed over into tomorrow's training. Quality 5-minute warm-up in Z1. Used slightly lower damper setting of 5.5. I generally dislike staying on the rower between intervals, but I thought it would be good for today's training. Felt like I was working pretty hard to maintain the sub-2.05 pace, but it didn't hurt. HR would drop to ~125 by the end of the active recovery period. Things are really moving in the right direction right now.
A freight train is strong, powerful, and steady across long distances. A freight train only goes "off the tracks" if it gets going at a pace faster than it can sustain. Bobby Scott Performance believes that a large volume of sub-maximal efforts paired with intelligently programmed bouts of intensity will develop a strong, powerful competitor with a huge aerobic base -- in other words, "an aerobic freight train."
