Weights last night, Rowing today.

posted by nutrexercus on 6:26 pm

Did some weight lifting at night. Back to the old routine that I started some months ago. I figure it'll be shock enough to my body to start it back up, preventing any plateaus. We'll see..

Squats
Dumbell Lunges

Well, tried out the kaboat, and it's pretty awesome! It was kind of awkward to row, so had to remove the bench seats on top of the tubes. We had three people in there, which was fun. All the other boats in the lake had motors. Oh well, at least we know we're getting more fit in the water!
I didn't bring my HRM :(, but I did bring my GPS to help get some stats like speed. It was quite hard to row with three going against the wind, hence the low avg speed!

Exercise: Rowing,

Equipment: Kaboat SK 430, Garmin etrex VISTA Hcx

Duration: 2hrs 23mins
Cals burned: 614 (estimated by Mapmyfitness)

After packing the boat away, forgot the GPS was still on, so went home on the same track! So ignore the red line outside of the lake.
