Weakness Training Week 1- Improve 2k time through longer rows and improve cardiovascular fitness.<br />Did the most meters ever this week. 48,590 was the total.

But thats just a guess. <br /><br />John- T...

I guess the rowing equevelent of jogging. I wonder if this is an acce...

Erg semi regularly, row on the water as much as I can and have competed in a few regattas and indoor rowing contests. Discovered rowing later in life but recently I attended the CIRC in Tor...
