A well deserved rest day

So today ended up being a rest day for me after what turned out to be a very eventful Wednesday. I managed to get up early enough on Wednesday to complete a good 15 minute rowing session where I comfortably was able to maintain and beat my previous 15 minute outing.

Whilst the rowing was good the same cannot be said for the squash game I had later that day. I felt heavy on my feet and sluggish around the court. I think I probably underestimated the amount of effort the rowing in the morning had taken out of me. The good news however was that my fitness on court felt much better. Never mind, a 3-1 loss to a player who told me that he had his best ever game - could be worse. I was due to play today but was let off by a double booking on the court - so I'm pleased of the days rest. Tomorrows another day and another squash game.

I continue to read up on the rowing technique - I think I need to work on the beginning of my Drive - my shins are a little way past vertical so will work on that next session. Also need to work on keeping my arms straighter. Found this out in the Indoor Rowing Training Guide - Version 2 on the Concept 2 website. More detail on that another time ! For now goodnight.
