Well done all June finishers ! ...sorry, forgot to write about June CTC, the 2 miles in the middle were awful. With the July CTC... sub7 has once again shown great inventiveness. I deliberately chose the 2k with strokerate restriction followed by the hardcore timetrial over 5k.The approach was as fo...

Thank you Paul ! Congrats to Carole, Guy and Dwayne !

Thank you David, Jon and Iain,

i guess i will not do that again for a very long time...will i ever do it again ?

It was just some weeks ago...i asked myself- will you ever do those 100k ? The answer was no. But on Saturday there was a unique opportunity. If i have a free Saturday i normally do something with the family or go out for a ride with the bike. For some reasons it was meant to be bound in front of a ...

Hello...well done all Free Spirits...I had a submaximal go for this 200s on Friday...because on Saturday there was this scheduled online Seminar...and those are not a weekend retreat Sent from my SM-G970F using Tapatalk

Also I experienced a decoupling of HR to pace for the final 40% (mentioned after your first PB post). Looking back I think I should have seen this as a warning and slowed a little. The podcast with Ed Coyle dives deep into HR Decoupling...it is a physiological process...caused by many factors...in ...

Thank You Paul, Iain and Wolfie ! very interesting HR Data Iain HR Drift or Decoupeling - a very interesting phenomenon during (prolonged) exercise. i have been monitoring HR for years...it's interesting how it is changing - or not changing its behaviour during exercise. HR is influenced by variable...

Thank you David. Thank you Kevin.

Yes i made some more meters as usual...but i do not regret one single meter since today

row on !

i had a go for the 5k on Wednesday...and it became a very close Timetrial. my goals Finish sub17:30 :mrgreen: every split sub 1:45/500m :evil: empty all the tanks :mrgreen: Result : i am happy...(pb), my different one is happy with its Result on Beach Island Loop (sorry, i love that cyber-funky trick)

i also had a pm4...now a pm5- updated it only for the use of zwift- with a pm4 you have everything a purist indoor rower needs- thx to ant+ HR compatibility, and for Ergdata you can use the cable. Ergdata is a great software for indoor rowing, completely free, no adds, it just does for what it is bu...

Hello, with this sentence I would like to say goodbye to the season 20/21. And summarize some thoughts about it. Feel free to join me with your thoughts about your season. The last workout of this season is the smallest recovery session I sometimes row. A very unspectacular 3333m. But this season wa...

thanks you for your answer and sorry for my belated answer ! - i just have to install tapatalk i guess... :wink: Apps i use: nearly everytime Ergdata - which one you need to see those metrics like avg force and peak force. If the connection pm5 ergdata is lost due to high stroke rates and a disconne...

Great results so far! ...huge discipline for this special challenge...rate restriction...hope I find the time for a unexciting go end of the month!

yes indeed Mat, great row ! I am sure in Aprils challenge youĺl be ahead...with a stroke restriction @20/m i will be very slow.

well done FS !

i always said to me it is a 5k +1k=6k...so just go for it by 5k pace...no no...cautious with pace !

Had 3 goals

1. Dont HD
2. Time under 21:30
3. Avg. Pace under 1:47

2 out of 3...i am happy !

26 million meters...Peter...thats hugh...congrats !

Paul, 216 is even higher than my DF for sprints...interesting how different the human body adapts !

Congrats Jon...already spotted it on Strava, great row... I did a 3rd go on that Marathon-Distance on Thursday...my 2nd was on 20.February...but...that one was a bit mispaced...so didnt rank it, i also had to alter the Drag during Race...it was with 115 to high for me for a Marathon. This time i set...

thank you very much ! i am still recovering...

great row Jon...it was before i joined the Strava Free Spirits group...so i had a eye on it today...next 2k goal...sub 07:15 ? Or choosing another distance...because season ends soon...today i had to make the decision between a 2nd go for the ctc or a HM...i opted for the HM and was happy with my re...

Well done everyone ! Last day for a late 2nd go ? No, i opted for a HM timetrial...and it was the right decision !

great rows Jon and Peter !

thx...my Covid Test was positive on 25.01...with a ct value over 30...a weak positive test...and it was already negative on 28.01...i wouldnt do any sports with a high positve test AND Symptoms...i had no symptoms except fatigue after vaccined...

...row on...

Hi, all those 40/20 or 30/30 or what ever are indeed high intensity training like tabata...to improve Vo2max, in cycling very popular...here more known as Ronnestad intervals vs classic intervals (for indoorrowers most known as PetePlan intervals :-)) in my opinion: do what you like, what makes for ...

Hello... ...had a go on Tuesday...strange days...I received my vaccination on 13 January...from 15.1. till 22.01. massive fatigue...pcr 24.01. positive (i am working at KH Tirschenreuth...hotspot in Germany)...today last day of quarantäne...so intensity due to this news...just minimal...January was ...

Thank you for your Answer, Kevin it just came to my mind that i explain what you can do with zwift even that they haven´t integrated rowing already. And that it possible make some fun. A middle qualitiy internet connection is necessary to enjoy a zwift workout. As i mentioned: just try it...you have...
