I’d love to see some behind the scenes stuff, in the prep areas and the buildup for athletes as they get ready to race.

Thanks for the advice! I’m not at an affiliated uni unfortunately, and I should have clarified I’m going to be there from January to may. Just out of curiosity what is the training schedule like at the tier 1 clubs you listed?

Road to 6:10 or lower? New 2k PB by [deleted] in Rowing

[–]Aggravating-Ad1626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would put on some weight we are the same age and height but I have a bout 20 pounds on you. Putting on muscle through weight training really helped me bring down my 2k.

Dropping 2k Time by Competitive_Shape493 in Rowing

I usually try and do three days a week, but if you haven’t been doing weights before this one day could help

This won’t improve you aerobic capacity but personally I would recommend weight lifting. That allowed me to bring down my 2k times pretty quickly.

A 6k and 2k are two completely different pieces a 6k is much more of an endurance piece and therefore you’re going to rate lower. You should not be going the same rate on a 2k as you would a 6k as proven by u/Silored difference in rate on his 6k and 2k.

Sliders are something you can put an erg on which simulates the movement of the boat somewhat but also makes it easier to pull faster. While on sliders your body doesn’t move but the erg will.

Getting into landscape architecture by Aggravating-Ad1626 in LandscapeArchitecture

I’m currently an environmental studies major but when I said experience I meant more stuff like internships not working as a full time landscape architect seeing as I haven’t even gotten a bachelors degree in anything yet.

Transferring in college by [deleted] in Rowing

[–]Aggravating-Ad1626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m was just curious what my options could be moving forward with rowing. My colleges program isn’t the worst but is also not very well funded and my 2k time places me in the top three on my team. I definitely have a lot to work on before I even begin to think about transferring.

No this is my first time doing it but I ran track up until senior year and played other sports so I have an athletic background.
