30r20 75% 7,842m 1:54.7 I tend to push hr higher in morning sessions so although the pace is a tad slower than the last one, that was done in the evening. What is annoying me is I'm gaining weight... Guess that's increased blood? Tipped 118kg this morning and been eating health - won't go as far as calorie counting, will see what happens over next week or so. TE 3.7 AVE HR 147

Can't get outside to row indoors so ski in the kitchen instead..
Ye sounds ridiculously but my rowing machine is in the shed at end of garden and the skierg is in kitchen. With the daughter in bed and wife at work till late it was the best option to keep the heart pumping. Just went for a "just ski" option as haven't been on it since December... But managed 40 minutes so happy enough :)

Its late in the evening... 30r20 75% HRR
But there's still time to row
Been a busy day but jobs done I headed out to the shed to row - put a film on called "The siege of jadotville" watching the end of it now would recommend it - based on a true story.
Anyhew the row went quite well another step forwards - felt comfortable - and got a good rhythm

another 60r20
Gonna be a lot of these rows until the engine stops coughing and starts humming, very sweaty and a little tough mentally today to get through it, just felt a bit off but got it done and signs of improvement already which is good.

Weigh n row
Weighed in this morning and was about as bad as I thought 117kg or 18.5stone 258lbs need to drop at least ten kg. Still that will happen if I persevere.

Speaking of perseverance gonna need some to get the pace down on these 60r20 75% HRR rows. Still got to suck it up.
