Ep 42 -55 minutes at 20spm with power strokes every 5 mins

BOTTOM Tier Workout Row 55mins at 20spm - take 5 power strokes every five minutes

Pace Guide = 2K+18-22 for most - then at least 3sec faster for power strokes Effort = 5-6/10 (7-8 for power strokes) Speech = Comfortable

Pick your pace for the main chunk of the row for how you're feeling. If you think you can get through a 55 minute row at 2K+18 - then maybe start there, but don't worry if the power strokes mean you need to back off as the row continues. If you are unsure, just start at the 2K+22 range - that's where I sat for the last 20 minutes of the row, and I got a really good bottom tier work out from this. If you're not used to rowing using a 2K training pace, then look at the video on this channel which explains it - or head to my website: https://rowalong.com/what-is-2k-training-pace/

Follow the sound of my stroke and keep an eye on your monitor for the stroke rate. And I'll keep you company along the way with various ramblings - in this row, I try to take time to go through technique info. If you don't know your 2K pace - row a 2000m time trial and look at the average /500m on the screen at the end. That is your 2K pace. So if it says 2:05 as your average - your 18spm rate above will be 2:25 pace. www.RowAlong.com is the website behind all of this - all these podcasts originate as Videos on my RowAlong YouTube channel if you want to see me as well as hear me.
