Again, I am low on high intensity minutes, caused by 2 HIT sessions in the week instead of three.
I am surprising on track for LIT minutes, which is a bit surprising. I didn’t do the mammoth Sunday row I had planned, but I did 4 endurance sessions instead of 3.
The plan had me at 18% HIT / 82% LIT. This week was 12% HIT and 88% LIT. A lot of the things that I’ve read seem to point toward a lower percentage of HIT in a polarized plan. Given what’s been happening with my training this fall, I guess we will eventually find out if it works for me.
