Resetting My Goals
My recent inability to run more than 2 km or cycle _at all_ without some sort of pain has led me to rethink my aims. As a result, I'll be abandoning these two for a few months to heal and prevent aggravating the old injury more than I have previously. If all goes well, I'll be able to return to 'proper' tri training in early March with no loss of cardio fitness or strength. So here's the plan:
1 x club rowing session (minimum)
1 x pool swim (minimum)
2 x rowing (erg) sessions
2 x weights sessions
I detest pool swimming and genuinely cannot wait to get back into Dosthill Quarry when it's warm enough but I'll have to quench my OW thirst in a boat. I'm planning to merge weights/erg/swim sessions so I'll be doing swimming/weights or erg/weights to, hopefully, reduce training days and increase recovery time. Weights will be rowing focussed along the lines of deadlifts, squats and power cleans with weights chosen for power gains (explosive effort).
I love it when a plan comes together...
