Sunday: 10K L4 and some force curves

Plan:  10K L4.

Rushing around trying to get up to see my Dad, so just a quick 10K.  I’ve been pushing the intensity lately, so a bit easier to today.

  • 2500 m sequences
  • 1000m/750m/500m/250m
  • stroke rates 18/19/20/21
  • power: 180/190/200/210
  • No HR cap

12-18a

After I did the workout, I decided to do a little more rowing to try to take some pictures of force curves.  I’m trying to figure out what causes changes to the forceratio metric.

So, I set up a Just Row and setup the PM to show the force curve.  I rowed a bit at 18 until I got a reasonably representative force curve, then I’d take a picture.  Then at 20, then 22, then 24.  All of this was unstrapped.  I tried to get the power close to the 10Wx stroke rate target, but I was a bit enthusiastic, so all of them are high.  The stroke rates are a bit off too.  I think this would be a good enhancement to painsled, a mode where it would log the force curve, not just display it.

Tomorrow:  Not sure if I will have time to workout.  I have pre-op appointments in the morning and I will be scooting off to see my dad after work.
