Re: Finding Training Partners - A new Solution!

I'm Registration failed and terms of use are not displayed, when clicking the link. The TOS thing has been fixed (stupid mistake on my part). And I'm trying to work out what code will help with the Samsung thing. There's an oddness to how it deals with Javascript and cookies, so I'm trying to add so...

Re: Finding Training Partners - A new Solution!

Great idea. Personally I currently get enough interaction on this and the FS Forums at present, but may well look into it when I have more time. One thing I would say is that 2k is not the be all and end all if you are looking to include people who don't race. Not sure of a good alternative that wo...

Re: Finding Training Partners - A new Solution!

Thanks. It's good to know you like the idea, even if it's not for you (right now). I'm hoping it'll take off - and if nothing else, those who don't want to be part of Facebook have a way to connect (other than this forum of course!)

Finding Training Partners - A new Solution!

Hi everyone, I've always found it difficult to 'match' myself with other rowers, as I don't have a real-life community, everything's online based. And although my time with Free Sprits, Fitness Matters, and now RowAlong has helped me meet lots of people, and gauge who's on the same level as me, it's...

Re: Cross Team Challenge - Discussion Thread

The letters are the buttons down the side. A is top, then B etc. The numbers are how many times you press the button. And your comment about the row is exactly why this is worth doing as it’s suggested. This row should put you at total sprint maximum for the entire workout. It’s like doing 24x100m -...

Re: Cross Team Challenge - Discussion Thread

[youtube]https://youtu.be/7oUz34q3LXo[/youtube] I'm pleased to say that the August 2024 Cross-Team Challenge is going to be Hakuna Tabata. What's that? It's three TABATAS with two minutes rest in between. So that means you're gonna do 20 seconds on, 10 seconds rest, eight times, after the eighth one...

Re: Cross Team Challenge - Discussion Thread

I’ve put some suggestions to the RowAlong Facebook group for the August CTC. The leader, and my choice, is Tabata x 3 with two minute rests. (8 x 20 seconds on with 10 second rests) However. For those who don’t use an app to program their monitor, this will take a bit of button pushing. (I will post...

Just a note to confirm that I saw RowAlong have the August challenge to decide. We will put our thinking hats on.

Re: Cross Team Challenge - Discussion Thread

British Rowing are looking to take over the old http://c2ctc.com site. So it's likely to get a better login, get a self-service password reset, move from MD5 encoded passwords (to something more secure). The login option should change so you don't have to scroll down 14,000 userids to find your one...

Re: Sunday Morning Group Row on EXR app

I'm hoping the EXR folks will be taking care of that side of it. But I'll check to make sure!! I did mention to them that maybe one week we could try using the Voice chat option on Discord. But I don't know if that would just be flywheel noise!! I don't think Sunday morning's are the best time for m...

Sunday Morning Group Row on EXR app

Something 'new' for Sunday mornings. https://exrgame.com/events/25 The Sunday morning 30 minute row has a strong history - many teams and platforms have hosted it over the years. So RowAlong has teamed up with EXR to bring it back. The first one takes place on 17th December - 09:00 (UK Time) - A 30 ...

Re: Nasal Breathing 5K - thoughts?

If nothing else, it's a great way to make sure those low-intensity rows STAY low intensity. It's really easy to fall into the black hole of thinking "This can't be helping" when rowing at 2K+18 / 20spm and then push it harder (I know, I've been there) and this nasal breathing thing means you just ca...
