Thanks for all the info.. and, yeah, continuing to enjoy it is why I havent gone down the beginners pete plan or similar as, at my current level, I could see pain, dislike and failure in my near future on that path haha.. not ready for progression yet.

cheers.

Your weight implies a shortish stroke, so at your low ratings (spm) you must be pulling very hard. Did your doc suggest you stay below any particular max HR? Mine said stay below 120, for which I was grateful, it doesn't take much work at all to get there. Do you plan to lose some weight? Exercise ...

That is important. Remember, pace follows form, so if your form/technique improves so does pace and efficiency. Finding a good breathing rythem (related to your stroke rate) also helps keep HR in check. One of my training buddies even forces his HR via his breathing rythm. But he was an internation...

Wow, thanks for all the replies, appreciate the input.. @JaapvanE - I dont have anyone training me but I have watched a variety of videos on form multiple times since I started.. both C2s own videos and, i think, Darkhorse Rowing on youtube. Im sure its not 100% by any means, but I know its not near...

I picked up Krew a few years ago when I started dabbling in rowing.. now have a gym at work and have been given time to go work out, so I'm diving in and enjoying it. I was creating a few of my own workouts in Krew and found I couldnt figure out how to create my own collections of my own workouts. P...
