40 minutes steady state

4', 3', 2' 1' @ 18, 20, 22, 24
at the beginning of each rate change take a 10 at full pressure at a 30 rate and then immedietely go down to the steady state rate.

This workout raises the heart rate and then allows it to come down to the 60%-70% effort. Over time it will take a toll. Be sure to breathe and stay poised throughout.

Wednesday June 4, 2008

warm-up 10 minutes on heavy damper 10 at steady state intensity (14-18 secs above 2k pace at 22 strokes a min)

5 x 5 min ON
1 min OFF

Rate 28 for all of them
#1 Pace: 12 secs over 2K
#2 Pace: 10 secs over 2K
#3 Pace: 8 secs over 2K
#4 Pace: 8 secs over 2K
#5 Pace: 1 min at 12, 10, 8, 6, 4 secs over 2k

The idea is to keep the 28 rhythm in tact and jump off the catch. Stay long and connected with the legs and mid section. Swing the upper body and rebound the arms at the finish in a nice quick and lively fashion. This is a rhythm workout with a blend of progression of power.
