Hi -
I’m really confused. I sweep, and we are often down on the other side. If we are down on the other side, do I push the handle down, or up? I always put it up because I thought pushing down would sky my blade and exacerbate the issue. I’m now worried i’ve been making the set worse.

currently in AP chem and it’s come pretty easily to me. excited for next year!
if anyone knows the abigail giordano of physics c, lmk!
EDIT: I have basically straight A+s at a rly competitive school with not too much inflation (straight As is ~top 20%, with my course rigor, 10%.) I’m able to avg 9 hours of sleep with a varsity sport and a nonprofit/club prez/passion project and team usa & national champion in a nonrecruitable but highly competitive sport. my goal is to keep it to 7 hrs of sleep and just really grind every minute I have.

Hi - Looking for help on what I should make my plan to improve my 2k and overall fitness this season.
15yo girl, 5’9 and ~ 135 lbs
progression:
2x 1500 6 min rest avg 2:16 (3 ish weeks ago?
5x5min avg split 2:18 (2-3 weeks ago)
8:45 2k most recent (yes, ik it’s bad)
5 rep max for squat is 105 lbs, deadlift 120 lbs, bench 60, and rows are 20lbs 8x max per arm. I tested these 2 months ago, (altho I haven’t been lifting much) but I think I’m stronger now. I’ve never tried to do steady state because I have a pretty large mental block when I erg and have trouble staying on for more than 15 mins, even at slow splits.
Would it be worth it to do about 30 mins of slow slow splits (even 3:00 splits) and trying to do it at least 3-4 days a week on top of our 2 hour 5 day per week practices?
