There are other days where I have to row 4 minutes for distance, rest for a minute or two and do a 2 or 3 minute row for distance and go down to 1 minute.

For the 2000m row, my best time was 7:07 but my technique was brutal. If I focus on form, my time is 7:13.

I would suggest to breathe on each stroke, rather than every two or three. Makes rowing a lot easier.

I read on the Concept 2 blog to setup the damper between 3-5. It would simulate rowing on water (search for 10 ways to row like a pro).

P.s: Thanks Troutman for that link! I might try it this summer ��



I use a rower at the gym so I always set/check the drag factor prior to rowing.
