Flesh Tamers Fitness - Jamie & Johnathan
Last week was a cut back week in mileage that happ Last week was a cut back week in mileage that happened to correspond with ice on the trails and an upper respiratory infection. But, Sunday was a beautiful outdoor long run with two tempo miles stuck in the middle. My HRV is back in a balanced state according to the Garmin! This week is a ramp up week for mileage including extra miles in speed work, easy runs and it will end in a 16 mile long run on the weekend. #running #runnersofinstagram #fleshtamers
Do you use HRV (Heart Rate Variability) status dur Do you use HRV (Heart Rate Variability) status during your training cycles? With my new Garmin Forerunner 255 I have the HRV metrics and I must say it seems to be spot on in detecting overtraining or illness. I don't have any pain or injury, but starting on Saturday I was getting "the sniffles." By Monday my watch was giving me a morning report that my resting HRV was unbalanced. I went to review and sure enough the metric was dropping since Saturday. And today I have "a cold." Sniffles and runny nose. So, am I overtraining or did I just catch something at the basketball game Friday night? Who knows, it may be both. But, I should drop in a full rest day tomorrow to recuperate. Why? Well, apparently at 42 years, I don't need to be training like the young ones. And that's okay, because my body has experience and miles under hoof to fall back on. Oh, yes, I did my Interval training today. 7 miles with Yasso 800s x 5 @ 7:00/mile in the middle of a warmup and cooldown. But it wasn't pleasant with a stuffy/runny nose. Recovery full tomorrow. #running #runnersofinstagram #fleshtamers
The ice has shut down roads and closed many gyms i The ice has shut down roads and closed many gyms in NWA. So, my Kettlebells and sand ball are playing a starting role today. Followed by an elliptical session to keep the running legs on plan. These occasional days where you have to move to a modified plan will not destroy your long term goal. And often are just what your body needs to let it fully recover from a hard few weeks of training. Just add it in as an active recovery day, use body weight exercises or bring out whatever resistance options you have at home. Then, get back on normal plan as soon as possible. But, don't try to add a bunch of catch-up miles or sets tomorrow. 1 or 2 is fine, but get back on plan and go from there. #running #fleshtamersfitness #runnersofinstagram
When I was at around mile six of my fourteen-mile When I was at around mile six of my fourteen-mile treadmill session yesterday, I became acutely aware that I was not motivated to be there. The treadmill has that effect on me. Any other time of the year I would have shut it down and called it at 10k. But not now. I'm in the middle of a sixteen-week training program for my next marathon. Although I wasn't motivated to be there, I was dedicated to reaching my training target. Now, I know I didn't have to hit those fourteen miles exactly. Time and effort are the key metric for stressing the body for these endurance events, but that's not the point. I told myself I was going to go fourteen when I started, and I wasn't going to let temporary feelings derail me from hitting a set goal. This is important for all of us to remember if we are to be continually successful. We must set daily goals for ourselves and then don't let ourselves off the hook unless there is a good reason to. Our flesh will always seek the path of comfort, but comfort is where stagnation sets in.
Sometimes you just have to use the treadmill for t Sometimes you just have to use the treadmill for the long run. As much as I don't like the treadmill, today I needed it. I wasn't feeling the energy to take a two hour cold weather run in the wind. And I wanted to watch the NFL playoffs. So, treadmill it was. I'm training with the 80/20 pace strategy, and today was a 14 Miler at 9:03 pace. I used two @genucan energy gels for fuel. I varied incline up to 1% at times. The Garmin Forerunner 255 had some trouble on pace today, even with the pod attached. But that's expected. I could tell by my heart rate with my treadmill pace that I was on point.

Sweet potato. Do you eat the skin or no? Coach Jo Sweet potato. Do you eat the skin or no? Coach Johnathan does. The sweet potato skin has fiber, nutrients and antioxidants that help with gut health. It also helps increase the feeling of fullness after your meal. After long workout sessions your hunger can be ravenous. Get plenty of clean protein and add a sweet potato to help start the replenishment of carbs and rebuild of muscle glycogen. #sportsnutrition #fleshtamers #running

My goal this spring is a 3:30 Marathon. My current My goal this spring is a 3:30 Marathon. My current PR is 3:51 at the @thehogeyemarathon 2022. It's a lofty goal for me, the journey to get there will be demanding. I'll have to give up some of my resistance training time to put in more base easy miles and make sure I'm fresh for the speed work days. What is your spring fitness goal? #fleshtamersfitness #running #runnersofinstagram
