More GoWear fit stuff

I am liking the GoWear fit. I was at the Y the last 2 days, and here are what the workouts look like.

Yesterday was jogging, upper body strength training, jogging – then the swim, where I wasn’t wearing it.

Today was on the precor bike and then lower body strength training.

Interesting how the intensity is very different on each day. Running, for me, is much more intense and high intensity than biking. You can see the big spikes. And you can also see how the lower body strength workouts are more intense than the upper body ones.
I really wish that I could wear this while swimming – that would be interesting to see. This band is a very good tool for me to evaluate what I need to do.

I have a lot of work to do on the swimming for the triathlon. I am slow and get tired fast. Might have to invest in some lessons, too!

Here are a couple of sites for training programs

I am still going to do 4 days a week of split strength training. The hardest thing for me is going to be the rest day. I need at least 1 a week, if not 2.

    Oooh, I haven’t checked out that tri newbies site yet, thanks for the links!! I’m still doing a weight lifting program, so I’m worried about squeezing days off in too. I’ve got pretty good stamina in the pool, but my stroke is awful. I’m going to take lessons again when I finish classes. I’m excited to have an online training buddy! 🙂

    pretty cool gadget. Technology is wondeful.
    Do you have any blood left? You are giving it all away! Joke…
