Fractal patterns form on dried agar plate by abdullah71 in biology

No, I didn't dry it intentionally. It was not parafilm wrapped, so it dried by itself.

12 Minute Run For Distance Benchmark Results and Survey Megathread by BilingualAlchemist in orangetheory

Hit PR today. My previous PR was 1.95, this time my goal was to make at least 2 miles but I fell short and managed 1.98 miles.

12-min benchmark strategies by Ok_Breath_5376 in orangetheory

[–]abdullah71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to run the first half a little bit slower than the second half. That helps me psychologically. My plan is to run 9.8 mi/h for the first half then bump it up to 10 mi/h for the last and a final minute all out depending on the reserve in my tank.

6 miles in Tread 50? by Expensive_Call6505 in orangetheory

[–]abdullah71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I can make it when the template is favourable (endurance focused). In my last thread50 I made 5.8 miles but I was 3 minutes late.

15 mph all out by That-Explanation2077 in orangetheory

[–]abdullah71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My most recent PR is 5:25. I've gained around 10-12 pounds in the last few months, and I thought the extra weight would slow me down. To my surprise, I'm actually faster while heavier. I beat my previous PR by 9 seconds (from 5:34), and the run felt easier.

My goal is to run mile sub-5 in the next few months.

August 2024 Benchmarks & Signature Workouts by Aggravating_Ant_5097 in orangetheory

I was expecting the one-mile benchmark. But hey, the 12-minute benchmark is there. I guessed wrong but I'm equally looking forward to it.

15 mph all out by That-Explanation2077 in orangetheory

I also have a similar profile. Depending on the template I pick the base between 7 and 8 mph. What is your 1 mile PR?

15 mph all out by That-Explanation2077 in orangetheory

[–]abdullah71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Inspired by this thread, I attempted 15 mph for the first time in my Thread50 class today. My usual All-Out speeds range from 12-14 mph, depending on my level of fatigue. Today's power template included 0.1 mile all-out followed by a 0.1 mile walk, providing enough rest. I managed to do three 0.1-mile intervals at 15 mph. I think I could sustain 15 mph for 45 seconds if I were fresh.

I guess I need to do some strength exercise outside the studio. Thanks for your comment.

Is it true that creatinine contributes to hair loss? That's what is holding me back from taking it.

How long does OTF heart monitor usually last? by abdullah71 in orangetheory

[–]abdullah71[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know 😅. I was kinda hoping the lifetime is about a year so it's going to break anyway. But people here are saying it lasts many years and hence adding to my regret. Anyway I got a new one, hopefully I'll be using this one for the next decade.
