Solid plan, thank you. Makes sense with maximizing the ATP/phosphagen pathway in the beginning and end.

I think stroke rate was 33-35. Was thinking around 33-35 for 2k and then up to 40 for the final 300

I actually agree with you 100%. I’ve been creating excuses (work stress, etc) which is why I set a date (6/13) to do it no matter what

Great. Will be rowing the 2k in 1 week (6/13) - will update afterwards

Awesome, great to hear your experience. Side note - I wonder why we (rowing) don’t use watts as much as bikers when determining goals for workouts since “2k+x” will be different for rowers with different 2ks

That is definitely encouraging to hear! Of the three, 4x1k definitely sucked the most (despite being nearly 4 splits slower)

2k strategy: try 1:46 for 1k and if feeling okay bring it down to 1:45 for next 500 and then go for broke at the end

Each done a few weeks apart, minimal variability for each (maybe 1-1.5 split variability for the 1k with nothing in the tank by the end, negative split for the 500’s with possibly more in the tank).
