It’s been 23 days since the previous blog post, but who’s counting? Between today and 23 days ago, there have been 34 attempts to post spam messages into comments and zero actual comments from real people and that’s the only publicity those spammers will get because their spam goes directly into the trash.
Speaking of trash, there have been a lot of trashy looking heart rate graphs for many of the workout sessions during the past 23 days. But there have also been a few nice looking graphs during that period. One of today’s workouts, a moderate paced 6K rowing session, had one of those nice looking graphs. By “nice looking,” I simply mean that the heart was behaving normally instead of going into atrial fibrillation.
This month is the sixth month of my effort to “detrain” my heart by working out at effort levels that are much lower than I had been doing before the atrial fibrillation started to become a big problem. So far, it seems to be helping and that is a bit surprising because I have no guidelines to follow and don’t really know what I’m doing except that I’m “taking it easy” with regard to using the rowing machine and SkiErg.
One of the workouts done today was a 6K rowing piece with a target pace of something a little faster than 2:20/500m. It went well and a screen shot of the results is below.
If you are curious about any of the other workouts I’ve done in the past 23 days, all data and “live” graphs can be seen via this: link to the online logbook. To see any session’s data and its interactive graph, click the corresponding “+” sign in the “Action” column for that session.
The only other news that comes to mind with regard to this blog is that today I decided to add another page to this blog. Its title is “Something Else” and it will be about something else other than rowing. I started it today by giving it a title and writing a couple of sentences but it doesn’t appear on the blog yet because I don’t remember how to make it visible in a tab at the top of the page like the other pages. So the next thing I need to do is consult with my better half for her expertise to help in figuring out how to get that new page to display in a tab at the top of this blog like all the other pages do.
Happy rowing to you!
