jog to gym
elliptical x 55 mins
Chest Press Machine 2 x Drop
Wide-Grip Cable Row 2 x Drop
jog home

Notes

Calves still pretty sore + felt a little of the tenderness on the jog to gym, so elliptical. Actually really enjoyed it today. Finally found an incline/resistance combo that lets be get a good cadence (~150) and HR (120s) without it feeling like a grind.

Avg HR: 161, 163, 165, 166, 167, max 169, 170, 172, 175, 175
RR: 29, 30, 30, 30, 32

HR been weird latley. Often just like 10-15 higher than I'd expect. Not sure if it's strap pairing weirdly or something else. Have been grinding pretty hard between gym and work. Last time I took days off (both work and exercise) coincided with me having a cold, so haven't had a good rest in a while. Full week off coming up soon, so hopefully that resolves things.

Workout was good, though! Bit 'achilles' pain left side now though, smh. Elliptical tomorrow probably...

Also, when it came to weights time I was like "ah it's super quiet, I'll superset these three instead of drop-setting". Of course by the time I'd finished the first cycle the others were taken, so I jsut did an extra set of dips and...dipped.

Well that's disappointing. If I've really gained no fitness since late-June I'll be pretty bummed.

did you ever figure out how you lost your watch? i lost my old garmin last year and it turned up months later, underneath the driver's seat in my car, camouflaged nicely against the near-black floor covering. very annoying but OTOH i really prefer the coros so kind of a blessing in disguise.

genuinely no idea! i suspect a ~0% chance of getting it back. i remember looking at it after leaving the gym, and then leaving the grocery store i noticed i didn't have it on my wrist any more. went back in the store, no lunch, went back to the pizza place i stopped by for a slice and no luck. it's not in my backpack (chcked very thoroughly!) so guess it slipped of my wrist somewhere in the street and is someone else's property now.

hoping the garmin grows on me. build quality, buttons, comfort etc all feel better. maybe switching GPS settings iwll help, and maybe the sus HR is just due to my recovering from a cold.

Ugh GPS accuracy on the new watch stinks. Also sceptical of the HR readings, even though they should be coming from my chest strap.

Run -- 13.96k, 1:21 [Avg HR, 146]

Notes

Nice fully outside long run. HR still high, still got a cold so attributing it to that. RR stayed ~24, so not worried about pushing too hard. Bit of mild arch soreness on _left_ side. Taking weekend off lifting, but will probs do some light stuff tomorrow. Feeling good about training again, rather than jsut grinding.

Man new watch takes ages to get GPS.

Took a couple days off, feel way recovered but then woke up with a cold today. ffs. Was on the phone for like 75% of this run so defo conversational pace despite HR. time of day + cold probs contributing there.
