Finish screen for today’s interrupted and unfinished 10K.

Today’s session started out as 10K but had a few interruptions and was unfinished after about 6K.

The graphs of heart rate for what was done of today’s 10K are messy, because heart rate was going in and out of being regular.

Do You Count?

Finish screen for today’s 10K.

I count.  Sometimes.  Today’s session was one of them. By the end of the session, my count had reached 1,204.  RowPro (see image below) had counted 1,304 strokes, so I missed incrementing the 100s place one time.

10K In The Morning Before Coffee Or Breakfast

Finish screen for today’s 10K.

Not that it is unusual to row before coffee or breakfast. That’s what I’ve been doing for a while now, and it seems to have a very positive effect on how the heart behaves.  No irregular rhythm, if I put off breaking fast for more than 12 hours each day and also do some rowing before eating.

Today’s was another 10K.  With eyes open.

Don’t Do This When Running

Finish screen for today’s rowing session.

Don’t do what when running?  Don’t keep your eyes closed, or you might crash into a tree or a cactus, etc.

But its okay to keep your eyes closed when using a rowing machine.

Which is what I did again today.  At the beginning, I set a timer for 40 minutes and opened my eyes when it beeped.  Then, I set the timer for another 7 minutes which took me almost to the finish with eyes closed.

The Highly Rated Low Rating

Finish screen for today’s session.

Today’s indoor rowing was done at a low rating which worked out to be an average of about 17 strokes per minute for the entire distance.  Rowing at a low rating is highly rated in the sense that it is supposed to be a good activity for improving strength.
