Training 8/3-8/9

 8/3- More observations from yesterday:

Caffeine enhances methylation.  Thus, the need and tolerance for MF is reduced.  Alcohol has the opposite effect.  It's probably best to steer clear of both.  

My opener was a 73, which was MUCH BETTER than the 93 that I managed just 2 days ago.  3 Thym Adren had minimal impact (72).  Hmm.

Took the same 2500 dose of MF that appeared to be optimal yesterday.  It did help but it only brought me down to 60.  By comparison, I did a 51 just 2 days ago on a slightly higher dose.  Extra Thym Adren did nothing.  I was actually slightly worse at 62.  Figure that a Mile time trial would have been in the high 8s to low 9s once again.  If I had only taken 1500 instead, I almost certainly would have been better.  

Another 400 of MF made it much worse so I didn't even try the real workout.  

Distance-1.0

Reaction:

It should be safe to reduce the Thym Adren. It's good that I didn't collapse from taking too much.   I was only slightly slower.  As for the MF, I don't know.  Am I really trending down or was it because I consumed caffeine yesterday?  Maybe come Wednesday, I will know for sure.
