When I type this it is the second of December and I have done 8 workouts in 7 days. 3 bike, 2 run, 2 strength, and 1 swim. I plan on not taking a rest day for another few days. My off season has been pretty aggressive. More aggressive than I thought it would be. I have not put in as much time as in the past, but I have been putting in speed.
I thought I would take it a little easier, in terms of swimming and total time, I have not put in as much as previous years, for this time of year, but I am putting in the effort.
Not much to say about the workouts this month, I have put in more strength, which is what I planned to do. My strength workouts always consist of some core and back, then it is either some arm or leg work, or a little of both. Basically, I do what I feel like doing when I am doing strength work. Mostly, I have been doing sets of 3x15 or 4x15, I have tried some 12, 6, 3, 1 where I increase the weight with decreasing reps, and then continue doing 1 rep and increasing weight until I cannot lift anymore.
My November run time is the most since 2008 and my bike time is about average. I am getting that run time up, which I what I need to know. Hope to continue in December.
I have start shopping around for new Masters swim program. I would like to get back to swimming around 25,000 yards a month starting in January. I am going to go to Facebook and see if I can get some triathletes to recommend me a place.
