What a very interesting and thorough brief on pacing. It must have been a facinating project to undertake. Thanks Mike for sharing it. One thing on the physiology side I'll add in. The initial energy system used in the start is the ATP-CP system. The breakdown of the CP to replenish ATP lasts only f...

The Rowing Science Weblog has been doing a series on GPS in rowing. Today we looked at the In2Rowing cox box.

OK, you would develop him through trainign and teaching - but don't forget - we began this comparing his physiology developed after many years of cycling to his rowing potential. Consider the article quoted in the post I made today on the blog - which showed huge improvements for Lance - and that wa...

Couldn't agree more - well said. That is why if you read Coyle's Book "Lance Armstorng's War" you'll see he mentions that elite cyclists who refuse to walk anywhere can get winded walking up the stairs - I'll assume he's exaggerating a little here but the point is there. I do know most could not han...

Thanks for the comment on the blog...if you have more info on that article, I'd love to see it.

I would love to hear more information from Mr. Henrik, because the data I have does not agree with his assessment of Lance's VO2 and anaerobic abilities. I have posted my detailed discussion (rebuttal?) on the Rowing Science blog: http://daily-erg-workout.blogspot.com I do think that Mr. Henrik does...

I have enjoyed a number of the threads on this board for a while now. I thought that I would mention a new weblog "Rowing Science" located at the (not so properly named) : http://daily-erg-workout.blogspot.com A nice discussion has crept up in the comments on "What if Lance Armstrong Could Row", sta...
