[SlowAndSteady]

Thanks. I did another drift test a couple days ago, walking on a treadmill on an incline. I warmed up 20 minutes working up to the steady state speed I used, took a 3 min bathroom break, then began the workout.

 

i think this is my last question? Should I disregard the first 5 or 10 minutes of my workout when determining drift?

this is all after warming up:

-using entire 65 minute workout: 132/126= 4.8%
-discarding first 5 minutes: 132/128 =3.13%

discarding first 10 minutes: 132/129 = 2.32%

 

obviously in this scenario, I’m okay if I don’t do any discarding of the initial few minutes. But in many other workouts, I’d be over the 5% unless I don’t take the first 5 or 10 minutes out of the equation.
