20 chins

PM (1440)

6 chins

1 hour walk

6 chins

Notes:

* Hotel fitness center has a peleton bike, so I decided to give it a spin (puns!).  With the elevation change, this was a total lungbreaker AND a leg breaker.  Never realized how much intense cycling can blow up the quads.  Tried to meet the stated intent of the workout of getting 80-90% max effort for the full 2 minutes, but was definitely petering out in the later rounds.  In truth, I should have rested longer than 3 minutes, but I have a tight timeline during this trip.  I can see this working well with my rower.

* Making an effort to get back to some daily chins, and greater chin volume in general as part of "Planet Mongo".  There is a chinning bar in the hotel fitness center, so I'm making the most of it.  I forgot to log yesterday that I was using all manner of grips during yesterday's workout, and intend to continue that practice.

* May actually get in another walk today.  It's just something I like doing with my downtime.

* I notice I tend to get/stay more sore when I'm in higher elevation. Wonder if there is something to that.

* Been plotting out my next training plan.  I'm honestly leaning back toward Operator rather than Zulu: I'll map out some thoughts in a bit.
