Training options to make your workouts at home interesting


I hope you are all having a great weekend. Today I met up with a young junior at the Iron Oarsman. He bought a rowing machine and does most of his training at home. Because of individuals like him who row by themselves I would like to commit more regularly to posting workouts specific to indoor rowing.

Workout 1

10K total
3K warm up, building the stroke from full slide down to arms only and back to full slide. 2K go by in a flash.
4K continuous harder push, each 500 meter rate changes: 18 power, 20 power, 22 power, 1000m @ 24 power, 22 power, 20 power, 18 power
3K cool down

2K @ 20 strokes per minute
2K @ 22 storkes per minute
2K @ 24 strokes per minute
2K @ 22 strokes per minute

Workout 3

Total time 60'
12 minute warm up technical.
6 X 3 minutes at stroke rates 20 pusing as hard as possible without increasing the stroke rate. 3 minutes rest.
