tracer-actual Posted March 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2019 Sat 09 Mar 19 - High Performance Recovery Training Day Morning HRV Score - 69 - Readiness 4 - ParaSympathetic Score is much higher, but today I transitioned from standing at my desk to lying on the couch for the reading. Readiness score aligns to how I felt Tempo Intervals - Assault Bike 20 sets of: - 12s work / 48s rest - averaged 650 - 750 watts for each work interval. Total work was ~155 calories. - Felt better afterwards and decided to leave it at this given my HRV Quote Race - Human Class - Jedi / Sentinel Level - 4 / 0.5 Battle Log: Holo-Log Current Challenge: Nil Link to comment
tracer-actual Posted March 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2019 Sun 10 Mar 19 - Rest / Regeneration Day Morning HRV Score - 72 - Readiness 3 - ParaSympathetic Very high score - told me I was in deep recovery mode. Possibly flow on from transitioning to lying for the reading (which results in higher HRV). Complete rest day based on HRV Weekly Review Got a fair amount of reading done (and listening!) so happy with that progress. Painting wise, I managed to get a lot done on the weekend. No finished models (although the Deep Madness monsters could be considered finished for table-top purposes), but worked on a heap of stuff - and practices some different techqniques like True Metallic Metals (TMM) on my Skaven. Did a lot of airbrushing too, which is improving my understanding of that skill. It can be very helpful when done right - or not really save any time (or even reduce time) if not planned or done well. Physical Training was good - but not as much stretching as I ideally want. Matching my work tempo with my ideal timeline will be something I need to monitor for a while, until I understand what the true realm of the possible is.

Are those readings off a treadmill somehow? Hey mate, HRV = Heart Rate Variability. Check out https://elitehrv.com/ for more info. The run sessions are using a Garmin Fenix 5 - but any Garmin (or equivalent) sports watch should be able to do the same thing. The Forerunner is a great watch for running, and much cheaper.

Hey @WhiteGhost Thanks, it is good to be back and tracking progress again. Yep, reverse just means reverse the grip, so in this instance the palms would be facing forward on the straight bar - whole new dynamic when you do so. 1 Quote Race - Human Class - Jedi / Sentinel Level - 4 / 0.5 Battle Log: Holo-Log Current Challenge: Nil Link to comment
tracer-actual Posted March 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 Sat 16 Mar 19 - Nope... Wow, was I sick today... don't want to repeat that again. Missed training, and pretty much most of the morning. Started to feel ok in the afternoon but just relaxed instead of doing anything (not that I was capable!).

Happy though - hard session, good training I am going to instigate a daily rating, taken from Elite Minds. Did I do the best I could today? If so, it is a win, if not then a loss. Goal is six or less losses per month, with never having two losses in a row.

Keep it up! 80% consistantly is king (Elite Minds). - Russian Dips - 4 x 4 - Still felt good, but I need to get my form checked. Filmed for some feedback - Planche Leans - 4x30s - Feeling stronger, and as good as last time I did these. Grind away. 80%, consistantly applied, will win. Work Training Session Deadlifts (2:00 - 2:30 rest between sets) 3 x 110kg 3 x 130kg 3 x 135kg 3 x 135kg 3 x 110kg - Second set of 135kg was taxing so dropped it back for last set Floor Press (1:00 rest between sets) 3 x 70kg 3 x 75kg 3 x 80kg 3 x 85kg 3 x 90kg - Pretty happy with where my strength is at for minimum weight lifting. I remember years ago getting 3 reps of 90kg was a huge accomplishment! Now it seems the baseline. Nice to reflect upon. Strength Accessory: 3 Rounds for quality of: - 12 x Single Arm Rows (each arm) - 15kg DB - 10 x Rope Heaves - 10 x Double Leg Bridge Calf Extensions (like from the Single Leg Squat series of Gymnastic Bodies), done with a foam roller. Other - Did more painting this morning before work (nice and early, before anyone was awake). Good drills and a nice habit to continue to build. Like most things, it can be difficult to get started, but once going it is fun. Working on two-brush blending has been unique and actually quite exciting. Daily Victory - Win - but, whilst I could say I did my best, I think it is important to reflect on what you wanted to achieve otherwise it is aimless. Which means better weekly planning to understand what I want to achieve. For example, I've wanted to re-introduce KB Swings in the evenings but didnt today - so is that a Win? Or because I forgot, is it fine? I spent quality time with the family instead - so that is a win? I don't need to over-complicate this, but do need to reflect on everything I know I want to achieve and honestly ask if I won the day. 1 Quote Race - Human Class - Jedi / Sentinel Level - 4 / 0.5 Battle Log: Holo-Log Current Challenge: Nil Link to comment

Increased the volume as a result. GST Quadraped movement series, 20m up and back of each, rested 2 minutes, then went again. Daily Victory - Win - Had some great fun with my son.

I did my GST work, and I didn't shy away from any of my AOCP training. Good numbers, getting better. Plus, I worked honestly and hard at all my other responsibilities. Today was a great example of a win - nothing exceptional, but everything moved towards being better. - The only thing I didn't do, and is a loss, is set-up my KB and do swings. I need to find a suitable location in my new house.
