Rowing Workout with Graph

I love the rower as an off-season endurance builder for runners. There are many parallels between the two. They’re both full body, technique dependent, and over the years, I’ve found that getting into good rowing shape very much helps your running fitness.

Here was yesterday’s workout;

10 min warm up @ easy pace

9 sets:

500m @ steady, but faster each round

1 min rest

The little flat spots - my chest strap kept dropping the connection, probably time for a new battery. 

These intervals were hard, but not impossible. I could talk thought the efforts, though, it was very labored. This training session felt productive. It was the right amount of hard work and I felt well-recovered at the end of each rest period. All in all, a great 36-minutes rowing to nowhere.
