Competition Preparation

Feeling the doms today still in hams, glutes and now upper body.

Did a comfortable session, rowed a 5k next to a guy in the gym.

5k r20 - 1:59.4

500m r16 - 1:58.2

10 x 100m - r24 - 1:38.2

Comfy stuff, but very sweaty!

Need to plan the run-in to Basingstoke where I'm competing in an indoor rowing sprint competition over 100m and 300m. 

I usually work backwards, thinking:

Competition Day - 100m, 300m, bleep test for fun...if I can still walk
2 days rest (Fri, Thur)
Recovery row (Wed)
Heavy deadlifts and power erg reps (Tue)
4 x (5 x 100m on 1 min) on 4 mins - aim for 1:15 (Mon)
Sprint start drills then couple of 100m TTs (Sat or Sun)
Power Cleans (Fri)
2 x 200m on 5 mins aim for 1:13, Bentover BB and DB rows, reverse curls (Thur - Crikey that's tomorrow!)

Not long left to prepare. I'm about as strong as I've been but endurance is off the mark. Just hope that this preparation gets me ready to go fast!!
