[QUOTE="FireDragon76, post: 77621257, member: 330042"] I started the day measuring my morning HRV, and got a 10/10 and perfect balance, which is excellent- all cleared for a normal day of exercise. I took my usual workout stack of 1 gram of creatine and a half teaspoon of L-citruline, as well as some vitamin D, a vitamin B-12 pill, and elderberry for vitamin C, and my glucosamine supplement. Today I did 20 minutes of hand and foot cycle at 3 METs (METabolic Equivalents, about 25 watts, in my case, or three times the resting metabolic rate), alternating forward and backwards, and hands and feet work. Then I did a strength training workout (today was my "Heavy" day, with additional arm work): 2 x 8 x 60lb chest presses 3 x 8 x 55 lb seated rows 2 x 8 x 0 hack squats 2 x 8 x 5 lateral raises 3 x 8 x 5 bicep curls 2 x 8 x 5 skull crushers I finished with 5 minutes of rowing at 1/3 resistance and 5 minutes of high intensity intervals. My heart rate briefly got up to about 85 percent max, but was mostly at 60-70 percent max. I think I'm getting better at dialing in the exact exercise intensity. I want to leave the gym feeling good, not worn out. I'm also going to be more careful logging my sets, reps, and weight, and I'm going to start researching a serious training program for periodization and progressive overload. [/QUOTE]
