Training Journal
Part of research is to document your experiments. Since you are using your own body as the experimental device, you need to document how the experiment is going. You will keep a training journal throughout the term.
Things that you want to think about for your training journal:
- Think about the entire term as preparation for the race at the end of the semester.
- Write down distance, time, intensity of each of your workouts for each day.
- Indicate how the workout went for instance felt great, was unable to focus.
- Keep track of your eating habits and how it relates to your physical performance.
- Keep track of the amount of sleep you get.
- Keep track of hydration.
- Review on a weekly basis to gauge how your training is going.
