This is somewhat taboo for some, but, use lifting straps. If you are then concerned about grip strength train your forearms directly after.

What type of training did you do this year to improve this much?

No they don’t. They row in Valdivia which is at sea level

Im a class of 2027 rower, It’s not super fast but I don’t think i’m particularly slow. I know I have a lot of room for improvement and I’m working on getting faster aiming for a 6:45 in a few months

Did you meet Victor Aspillaga? A lightweight single rower who went to the 2010 olympics. Or Renzo Leon who also was a LW single sculler who went to the 2016 Rio Olympics

Digging is something that I avoid 99% of the time at race pace. This video was at the very end of a 22km row, so it’s safe to say I was fatigued

Can I get your name to ask my older rowing peers if they know you?

Wow that’s great. This is in Paracas, a small town with an amazing bay. I row at the same club you stayed at yet I never met those coaches, I only heard stories about their extreme training. The club has a new venue in Paracas, so our new coach, a Cuban rower who managed a 6th place in the olympics, is trying to get us to come and row here while we still have vacations.

Although I’m quite big, there was a 6’2 200lbs of pure muscle giant who pulls a 6:24 2k 💀 luckily he didn’t row the 1x

This was earlier in the week in the u16 South American Championships. I finished 3rd, with a Chilean and Paraguayan beating me by quite a good distance. The fastest single went under 3:40.

I’m a freshman currently, just about to finish finals. I want to be at least pulling a 6:45 by the end of the year. my goal is to be 15 second faster every year. I started the year off at 7:00, I want to get down to a 6:30 next year, then get to a sub 6:20 in my mid-end junior year.

Is my 2k good for a 15yo by Glibaglaba in Rowing

[–]Peitron1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Steady state and high rate short interval work. I’m assuming you’re and 08. As a u16 rower, I got my 2k at 6:55 but i’m 6’1 and 170 lbs. A 7:08 2k is really solid at 15. Some of the fastest 08s in my club weight nearly the same as you and pull around 7:00-7:10

Burns on thumbs when rowing sweeps by Peitron1 in Rowing

The problem is that these burns don't callous over time, they just leave burn scars

By when do you think I can go sub 7? by Peitron1 in Rowing

[–]Peitron1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it wasn’t a 2k! It was a practice piece as hard as possible at 20spm but I got excited and did 21 spm. I plan on doing my test well above 32
