19 July 2011: Swim progress

I managed to swim 2200 yards and lift afterward.

Swim: 5 x (25 3g, 25 swim), 5 x (25 fist, 25 swim)
10 x 100 on the 1: 1:41, 1:38, 1:38, 1:38, 1:38, 1:37, 1:38, 1:36, 1:38, 1:36.
That is 1:37.8 average per 100; a bit of an improvement.
Here is a summary of my 10 x 100 on the 1 averages:

19 July 1:37.8 (.85 seconds/week)
5 July 1:39.5 (.9 seconds/week)
21 June: 1:41.3 (1.1 seconds/week)
15 June: 1:42.4 (1.1 seconds/week)
1 June: 1:44.6 (5.1 seconds/.5 week = 10.2 seconds per week)
29 May: 1:49.7

So over a 51 day period, I’ve dropped about 11.9 seconds per 100 or about .233 seconds per day. But you can see the decrease in the rate of improvement, which is, of course, expected.

Then weights:
Hammer row: 3 x 12 with 200
pull down: 3 x 12 with 140
dumbbell curl: 3 x 12 with 25
incline bench: 10 x 115, 7 x 135, 5 x 135
hip hikes
4 sets of lunges
4 x 25 sit ups
hip adductors: 3 x 10 with 170
hip abductors: 3 x 10 with 170
push backs 3 x 10 with 110
rotator cuff

Personal:

So, what am I doing, blogging wise? Mostly writing about mathematical topics: here, here, here and here.
