Chasing Stripes 008 — Hotel Gym Miles

Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes (EDS) are not just “being flexible.”

They are complex connective tissue disorders that can affect joints, skin, blood vessels, digestion, fatigue levels, autonomic function, healing, and day-to-day quality of life.

As part of the Move for EDS challenge and EDS Awareness Month, this morning’s session came from the gym in the Croke Park Hotel, Dublin.

No shed setup.

No familiar surroundings.

Just another chance to bank some controlled aerobic work and keep the consistency going.

Session Details

30:00

7194m

2:05.1 average pace

r20

179w average

Average HR: 128

Max HR: 149

Drag Factor: 134

A very controlled aerobic row throughout:

smooth HR rise

stable power trace

disciplined rate control

slight negative split across the second half

Exactly the type of session that quietly builds durability without digging a hole.

The important thing with hotel gym sessions is simply getting the work done. Different erg, different environment, but the same goal: quality metres, controlled rhythm, consistency over hype.

One more row banked.

One more step forward.

One row at a time.
