Today I did 5,500m and did a nice and slow rate to keep my HR at zone 3. First time I was able to keep the whole workout in the zone! Prior to the workout I did the reverse pick drills for 5 min at 10 damper setting so I could feel the drive. Man I've realized I absolutely was not "pushing" away as ...

I'm still struggling to make that connection where I'm not pulling with my back and purely with my legs. I've done so many pick drills on this but I'm going to keep hammering on it until I get it! I always advocate rowing with alternate power in your legs. For example, use circa 70% power on your l...

Thank you all for the amazing feedback. A few points I'm gathering to work on: Bring my feet down more on the straps? Work on my hinge My reach isn't there yet My lean back is still too far back at times Bring down my drag (I'm at 124ish now) I'm still struggling to make that connection where I'm no...

Ok so I'm on Day 4 of the Beginners Pete Plan. I put a short video up this past Monday on another post and got some great feedback and was told to post it here as well. I've recorded a new video today (sorry it's so long) of day 4s' 20min video. I know my form is absolutely not there yet but I'm hop...

I've gone ahead and recorded myself during a 5min warmup i did this morning before i tackled Day 2 on PBB. https://youtu.be/S-1crbE9hU4 (note in the very end i show the results from the PM) I already see a bunch of things i'm clearly doing wrong. I'm doing this weird hand thing on my recovery where...

How did you arrive at your max HR? If you used a formula, it's probably not correct. The way I lowered my HR and got off meds was by putting time in on the rower and walking. After I got up to where I could do an hour fairly comfortably and knew my max HR, I started doing an hour HR restricted row ...

I was able to do the whole 30 without any rest or drop in the rate of 20. I just felt like I could push harder most of the row.
I feel like I'm likely just leaving alot on the table with my form maybe ? Tomorrow I'll post a 5 minute workout to see what you guys think

OP and i have almost the same exact stats which is a bit concerning now.
I tried to post something earlier asking for guidance but has not gone through approval yet. I want to upload a video tomorrow on my form as i must be doing something(s) wrong for sure!

Hey guys hope to get some feedback on where my goals should be. I previously rowed a bit off-and-on on a Pro-form magnetic rower. First of all, I now understand how terrible of a rower those are (specially the tracking..according to that rower I'm breaking world records every day!! haha). I finally ...
