Yesterday's was on the back of a few Friday night beers and Saturday afternoon DIY, so those two combined probably made the diff...

Re: What Training Have You Done Today?

1hr Wolverine L4. 180-180-180-180-180-180 That's 3 days of activity in a row now after 2 weeks off so hopefully now back in the habit. Felt slightly more strenuous than usual for an L4, so I've planned in more L4's for the rest of the week before bringing intervals into the equation again next week....

Re: What Training Have You Done Today?

20m cycling warm up. 5m cycling iTT @ 285W 20m row @ 18spm Only a short row, but it's the first I've logged in 18 days. An 8 day break from rowing extended due to a combination of first laziness, then life reasons. Now it's time to get back on the horse. At least I've kept active with long dog walks...

Re: Incorrect Strokes per minute

I do a 40 minute row with 2 minute splits of 18, 21, 24 and 27 strokes per minute. So far I've been improving the accuracy of my stroke rate until today when according to my PM5, I was completely all of the place. Nothing random but definitely completely different stroke rates than I was seeing on ...

Re: What Training Have You Done Today?

On getting home, a 7 day holiday extended into 12 days of doing absolutely nothing through sheer laziness manifesting itself in a variety of semi reasonable excuses. Last night was an online TTT on the bike and I felt a bit subpar. Gonna start back in with some L4 rows till Monday, and then take a w...

Re: Disappointed on my 1st 2k rowing

When I started rowing 3 years ago I was 48, in terrible shape (no physical activity in the past 10 years or so) and 10+kg overweight. After 3 months of moderate rowing training my 1st 2k was 7:58, now I'm at 7:19. For most people, it takes time: give it a few months. But yes, there are 2K times som...

Re: 2k time trial for a new rower

Haha thanks. Yea when I began I watched technique videos to make sure I was doing it right and rowing with my legs. Also I am 5’9” and 175. If your 175lb is fighting weight, then 8.00 gives you loads of room for improvement. You should have a good shot at breaking 7 minutes with technique and fitne...

Re: 2k time trial for a new rower

Hi There, I am new to rowing, I just picked it up 3 weeks ago as a way to cross train after getting a hip flexor strain from running. I started the Pete plan last week and today (9/4) I did a 2k time trial on a concept 2 rower. My time was 8:02.7 (I am a 36 year old male primarily a distance runner...

Re: Vo2 max

The c2 calculator gives some very weird results.

Ticking untrained instead of highly trained raises my score +4 from 60 to 64, but entering Sakly's figures changes them the other way -13 from 70 to 57.
