Thursday: No training. Colonoscopy! I guess we’ll call that a rest day?
Friday: Since I didn’t sleep more than 2 hours on the night before my “procedure”, I decided that getting as much sleep as possible on Thursday night was the best thing to do. So, I slept late and rushed off to work. I went to the gym around 4 in the afternoon.
The Plan:
Session: 5 x 2000mRest between: 2’Rating: For each piece alternate (1500m @ Cat V: SR 22/ 500m @ Cat IV: SR 24)Training effect: Mix of 75% Cat V extensive endurance, 25% Cat IV intensive endurance
Pace targets:
- Cat V: 2:01 to 2:05
- Cat IV: 1:55
I didn’t do my full PT stretching and exercising routine, I just hopped on the machine.



That was very enjoyable. Easy enough that I could spend a lot of brain power on trying to maintain my posture at the catch and finish.
How does this fit into your black hole theory of polarized training?

I think this is a bit on the aerobic side of the black hole, but a little close for comfort.
