Pete Plan Help

Post by JoeCPA » March 12th, 2015, 6:05 pm

So I'm looking at the beginner Pete's Plan. Week one says:
5000m
6 x 500m / 2min rest
5000m
[20min]
[2 x 10min / 2min rest]

So do I do all of that everyday for week one? That seems like a lot. Or is each line a different day? If so, when do you insert rest days?

Sorry for the basic question, I'm very new to rowing and just trying to get a basic understanding.

Thanks,
Joe

Hi, Joe,

Those are different days on each line, and the bracketed entries are optional since beginners are probably not ready to row six days per week. Details about the beginner plan can be found here:

There are other suggestions for beginners on C2's site:

Take care,
