Hi. I'm just getting back into rowing and this has been my first week on the erg since college and law school. Yesterday I did 4x15 and tried to keep my average split around 1:56.<br /><br />I'm looking forward to getting back in the rowing community and having you inspire me to get off my butt and, well, back on my butt. <br /><br />-Jamie

Carl,<br /><br />How do you arrange your weight sessions around rowing sessions?<br /><br />Do you always do weights after rowing, or sometimes before.

Weights I always do hard, if I do them (unless injured or cutting nr of sets short due to time restraints). If the erging is a low intensity session then I do weights before. 4x1k followed by bench press is something I've done. What I do first depends on what my goal with that days training is.

Back to work, but no rowing yesterday. No energy today, just doing the metres...<br />

Pretty good, that extra 50 points over me certainly helps you out.

Johnny,<br /><br />Feeling pretty crappy at the moment. 1:58 might not seem too bad to you, but I can assure you I was not having a good time rowing it. At least I didn't give up, which I was very tempted to do (more than once) in the last ten minutes.<br /><br />Just had a look at our Nonathlon scores. Interestingly, we have exactly the same score for 5K, and I score higher for all the shorter distances, while you score higher for all the longer distances. I suppose this is to be expected when your background includes a lot of running and aerobic work, while my background was basically lifting weights to get bigger, with no aerobic work at all.<br /><br />Hopefully, it will be easier for me to improve on the longer distances than it will be for you to improve on the shorter ones. I am enjoying our little competition and I will boost my nonathlon scores across the board once the BIRC is out of the way, so you will need to keep pushing your PB's...<br /><br />

Denis,<br /><br />That is outstanding! Only working towards my second million at the moment. Your total is an inspiration...

I will have to as I am not going to do much on the short pieces so I have to get better at the longer stuff.<br /><br />However I do have a not so secret weapon up my sleeve. As you know, I am bordering on the lwt division and I have a johnnybikelwt entry in the Nonathlon. I weigh myself before any potential PB attempt and hope I am lwt. <br /><br />I get an additional 30-40 points as a lwt and I don't think you can compete with that right across the board.<br /><br />So I am looking for a double whammy by May next year. Beat you with my lwt and hwt scores. I would expect a pint coming my way if I do <br /><br />Hi Denis, nothing to say. Unlikely from another Loiner
