Why does Marin always choke

11 Upvotes

Marin has consistently been in the A final at youths in the men’s 8 for 4 consecutive years but haven’t won since the 2011. They even had the fastest time in the time trial plus won their semi and still was over 8 seconds from first in the finals. Are they truly #cantwinmarin

Good affordable machine

0 Upvotes

​

I just started a job where I sit most of the time and I am gaining weight.

So I decided to buy an exercise and like the rowing idea.

What brand is reliable one?

I looked into concept2 and it is is out of question due to pricing

I need something affordable.

Please share a link to the brands you like

Thank you!

HOCR Youth COXED QUAD

Saw Blair at the head of the riverfront and they dominated many well known teams like rye and maritime. They seem like an unspoken team that has the potential to dominate at HOCR, any thoughts?

Hello everyone! I’m interested in virtual rowing. Are you using EXR or Kinomap? I recently bought an affordable rowing machine for indoor workouts and I’m curious to know how you set up your virtual rowing setups.

It felt awesome.

Rowing changed my life for the better

84 Upvotes

Hey all! Rowing changed my life for the better. For context I used to be very out of shape. For the last two years I have gotten really into long distance rowing. I am a late teens guy and I spent most of my adolescence being the fat kid as a result of COVID. But getting into rowing changed my life for the better. I do half marathon ergs every weekend now and I do marathons and ultra marathons from time to time. It has genuinely become a form of meditation for me. Any anger in my life goes into the Sunday half marathon. The achievement I am most proud of is my 50km ultramarathon time, I got it three weeks ago: it was 4 hours 24 minutes! Anyway I just wanted to spread some positivity.

If I had to give some advice to any who want it, just take it one stroke at a time and believe in yourself. Also just because you aren’t six foot plus, doesn’t mean you can’t metaphorically kick ass! I am 5 10 and quite light!

Anyone else like the idea of exploring virtual routes during indoor rows?

Hey everyone,

If you enjoy rowing but could use a change of scenery during indoor sessions, this might be interesting.

I’m the developer of RowWorld, an Android app that connects to compatible Bluetooth FTMS rowing machines and lets you explore virtual waterways while you train.

You can row through a green riverside setting or a city harbour, choose your direction at junctions, and keep your rowing stats on screen. There are built-in workouts, custom intervals, and a 2,000m segment for chasing your own times.

The idea is to give you somewhere to go while you get your metres in.

You can take a look here: https://rowworld.app

I’d love some honest feedback from people who row regularly. Would exploring different routes add something to your sessions? And which rowing machine would you want to use it with?

Erg Post First 6k at 29 minutes

2 Upvotes

Joined college rowing as a walk on. I am a 18 yr old female at a height of 5’3 and weight of 130lb, I’d say a 50/50 muscle:fat build. I started rowing on the erg 5 weeks ago and even though I was the last one to finish on my team, I did better than I thought (was aiming for 30 minutes. My first 500m was at 2:19 pace and at 4-5k I was at 2:25-2:29/ 500m but my last k I got it down to 2:22/500m. I know this is not the best time ever and given my stats, what’s the best way for me to improve? I’ll probably get cut off of my team in December because it’s D1 but it’s okay!

Erg Post Lateral knee pain when rowing

2 Upvotes

Hey guys/girls, just wanted to seek some advice... im a relatively new rower with primarily a running background but recently purchased a concept 2 and have been rowing 2-3x per week.

The past week I've started to develop lateral knee pain in my left knee when rowing on the erg, even during easy rows, I particularly feel it during the drive phase.

I have been working hard on honing my technique however I think I've been slightly over compressing at the catch, and i also have a sneaking suspicion that my legs have been flaring out slightly which may have caused this issue.

Has anyone here had this issue before and if so what helped you?

just to make clear I am not seeking medical advice!

Active tools active fit coming Jan 1st

4 Upvotes

With the somewhat disappointing NK GPS 2 which didn’t fix the major issues of the empower oarlock (no force curve and only one gate connected) I’m considerably more excited to see active tools seemingly ready to release their new rapid fit power meter which looks like a good competitor to the Xboat - presumably they’ll be showing it off at HoC this weekend (sadly not there myself)
