If it rests, it rusts!

For us, this is a wild pattern; we never get this level of Peak (Red) zoning. What happened!

The speculation here is that yesterday’s resistance-training sesh resulted in a long-lasting period of EPOC, also known as Excess Post-Exercise Oxygen Consumption. There were maybe 15-16 hrs. between the end of the weights last night and the aerobic-type singles tennis this morning. The fitness tracker was abnormally high, compared with the usual readings, for the entirety of the 90-min. tennis; the only difference we could observe was the presence of the weight-training the night before. Maybe? 

If so, we should like to repeat this effect after our next resistance-training; to do that muscle-work later in the evening, followed by the tennis early in the morning, such that the Peak (Red) zone measurements go sky-high again. We shall let you know!

BestLine Racing Society Recap:

Belterra, Finger & The Mountain before this.

At Cincinnati, Ohio, there was one first-timer in Race 2, but maybe you played #1 Farewell Kiss (.830 Win Prob / 0.20-1 Fair Odds / 0.45-1 Premium Odds) anyway at $7.40. In Race 4 there, #2 Mixter Jensen (.431 / 1.32 / 1.78) went off at 2½-1 but paid $2.60 in a dead heat for the win. 

Over to Canandaigua, N.Y., for the opener there, in which #3 The Last Ace (.392 / 1.55 / 2.06) won at $6.10, or 2¢ shy of the required $6.12 premium price — a borderline decision; we report, you decide! Then in Race 3, #4 Matty’s Express (.198 / 4.05 / 6.07) was fastest to the wire at $51.50. 

Finally, Race 2 at New Cumberland, W.Va., found #1 Hammer and Jammer (.374 / 1.67 / 2.21) and #5 Orchard Road (.129 / 6.75 / 9.85) combining on your winning $80.20 exacta whose premium price was $47.95. Next race there, #1 Honey Bourbon (.117 / 7.55 / 10.97) and #10 Too Crowded (.159 / 5.29 / 6.55) combined on your winning $186.60 exacta whose premium price was $165.64.
