so my resting HR is finally coming back down. last night i had an average of 51bpm opposed to 59bpm. big shift. hopefully, it will drop more tonight.
that being said i feel good, but still not quite great.
during the morning row, my heart rate really spiked during the first third. i could feel it beating through my shirt really. it settled down by the end. we did have a bit of a challenge this morning. rhythm did not come quite as naturally and effortlessly as usual. plus, we were battling a bit of lean that we will probably remedy with a little more space between our port and starboard side oarlock heights.
then, we had a am2 workout which was 2x1000 meters + 500 meters with 4 minutes rest between each. my heart rates were fine for all of them and i did them fine. they weren’t all out, but just at a base pace. they did feel a little harder still than they should have.
on the mend.
