Finish screen for today’s 10K.

Today’s 10K put my total rowing calorie burn for the month past the goal of 20,000 calories, for the Concept 2 Big Burn challenge.

My target during this 10K was to aim for a heart rate of 120 BPM, plus or minus 10 BPM.

A screen recording was made of the session and will be available at the following link:”Indoor Rowing Target HR 120 01302018“.

A 135 Watt Half Marathon

A view of today’s half marathon after rowing the first 50 meters.

Today’s session was another one motivated by the goal of burning 20,000 calories rowing during this month of January for the concept2.com Big Burn challenge.  After today’s half marathon, there are less than 500 calories remaining.

The half marathon included intervals every 5 minutes, to make it interesting.

Trying To Steer The Heart In A Straight Line

Does the Soul Nebula have a heart?

It’s impossible of course, to get a perfectly straight line when rowing with one single target heart rate, but it gives you something to do while rowing.  Today there was only enough time for a 20 minute session.

The session was recorded and uploaded to YouTube as a screen recording and when it is finished uploading and processing it will be at this link: “Indoor Rowing 20 minutes at 159 Watts with No Music 01262018“.

According To RowPro 140.0 Watts = 142.5 Watts

 

whats-a-blog
This was found on a website called World Famous In the Philippines.

Today’s indoor rowing was 10K with a target of 140 Watts average power.  When the session was finished, the RowPro 5  for the Mac screen display showed an average of 140.0 Watts but the RowPro 5 for the Mac session report listed average Wattage as 142.5.

I arbitrarily chose the higher number as being most correct and named the session “Indoor Rowing 10K at 142 Watts 01252018” which is what it is called at that link to which its screen recording was uploaded on YouTube.

There was also a warm down of 2,000 meters but I’m not bothering to insert that in today’s post.

Today’s indoor rowing was 10,000 meters at a turtle pace, with one minute intervals moderately fast, every 5 minutes.  After that, there was a very slow warm down which wasn’t needed for the sake of warming down, but was done for the sake of getting the day’s quota of rowing calories for the Concept 2 Big Burn challenge.

The two rowing sessions were uploaded to YouTube as screen recordings and can be found at the following links: “Indoor Rowing 10K at 136 Watts 01232018” and “Indoor Rowing 3K Warm Down at 97 Watts 01232018
