Calvert and Milo Barbell

All right, training.

1.2 mile, 23 minute fasted hill walk. I just stuck to the steepest part of the hill and went up and down it for a mile; 8 laps. 33 floors, no part was flat.

I clocked my heartrate at 154 at the top on the last lap. I think before, when I did it on a treadmill, I was targeting 120-130. I’m sure there was a reason, so it makes me wonder if I’m a bit high for fat-loss purposes. (Plenty of other benefits regardless.)

But now I want to figure out where I got that 120 BPM number from.

Notes:

  • long session again. Each set was short though.

  • I took a couple videos of my press sets and ran them through that WL Analysis app. Turns out my bar path has gotten a lot worse. I could probably use some paused and partial reps like before. No plans, just thoughts.

  • I’m not happy with the Roman column backbend so I’m going to take this slower for now.

  • I haven’t actually done the tri/delt stuff but sets of 6 is the plan. I’ll update if it doesn’t play out that way.

  • I’m trying to figure out how to assess whether to progress the press. I’ll do a separate post.
