MPEG-4 Versions of Xeno Muller's Indoor Rowing Workouts.




I found a great website that allows me to upload my workouts as MPEG-4 so you can download them onto your IPOD or other MPEG viewing device. Best of all is to use elastic bands and strap the IPOD to the performance monitor of your rowing machine and use your bluetooth headset and you can do a workout with me and see the time fly by.

15 minute workout for all levels of rowing ability. Your coach Xeno Muller, Olympic gold and silver medalist will make the time go fly.





This is part one of an indoor rowing workout with Xeno Muller, Olympic gold and silver medalist. The workout is a PYRAMID rate change which lasts 22 minutes. Great for everyone who owns a rowing machine and needs a training partner who has gone to the Olympics and has won the gold medal.





Part 2 of the great Pyramid workout.

When your weight loss depends on your rowing... and where to use it...

Hello everyone.

Since 08082008, I started training seriously again.
The goal is to drop down to 220 pounds which I have not been since 2001 and increase my stamina to Olympic levels.

For this I have now surgically attached my rowing rowing machine to my rear end. Every waking moment at home I am now sitting on the rowing machine. Yes, I am exaggerating.

I found out a couple of tricks to keep my motivation high.

1. Music in my ears.

2. Stay within the 2mmol target heart rate.

3. Move the rowing machine around the back yard to avoid scenery burn out. And guess what, I might actually take the rowing machine somewhere else, maybe with a view of the Newport Harbor.

4. I need to get a better mic to film workouts elsewhere in the world with different scenery so that YOU, in case you own workouts of mine, don't get scenery burn out.

There is a whole bunch more I would be writing but there is a show on TV that the kids are watching.

LABOR DAY ERG 90 MINUTES




Labor Day Ergo 90 Minutes


Today is the last day of summer vacation for our children. We took off to the beach with Georgia, Xeno, and Christopher. The loved playing in the surf, while Erin and I enjoyed watching them. Reid stayed home with his Mimi.

As we were relaxing, I shared with Erin a thought that came to me the evening before. My plan to return to the Olympics goes through training at home on the rowing machine. Erging is by far more time efficient than rowing on the water. In my case that is extremely important, because I have no time to waste. I share my time with my family, the business, and the Olympic comeback. The primary goal is to increase my aerobic capacity and burn away my excess body weight. I have 25 pounds to lose until I give myself the green light to race on the water. On the picture is my trusted Model E. I train below the aerobic threshold.

2012 Here I come.


This is just a quick post.

I have decided to train and qualify for the 2012 Olympics. I do not have a plan as to which boat I will try to make.

I will compete for the United States of America.

I will surgically attached the rowing machine to my rear end.

The task at hand is to lose another 35 pounds. I want to race at 210 pounds, which is less then at the Olympic Games in 1996.

It is all about mind over matter. In this case my age of 36 helps me control my diet.

All the best,

Xeno
