We filmed this workout last Saturday. We had a great time rowing 45 minutes. We warmed up with technical exercises. I made sure that everyone had something to drink, after all, we don't want to have to scrape anyone of the floor because of dehydration. :-) As mentioned in the headline, this workout is of intermediate to high intensity. It is not necessarily beginner workout because of the duration of the intervals. Even in this workout, beginners are welcome, however I never fail to mention that if the intensity goes beyond reasonable discomfort to lay off the power and start cruising.

I am talking to the school weight center co-ordinator about a weight plan. I want to know, what is the MAXIMUM amount of time that I will be able to take off my split? Keep in mind, I am prepared to fight for every second...
What should be my goal, and what(In terms of on the water/ergometer/weigts) should I do to accomplish it?
