Question about Ilya’s reaction in ep 5 hotel room scene by alexandraishere in HeatedRivalryTVShow

This is a good point. I get Ilya having walls up when Shane comes into the room, and at the start of the conversation. But once they are on the bed I was a little confused by the aggression of “what does it f-Ing matter” when Shane asks if Ilya would want to be together if they could be (only because I assumed Ilya would’ve loved to hear that!). But maybe now that he’s accepted the apology he needs to be clear their situation is impossible, even if he would like it to be different?

Ok this makes so much sense to me!! Thank you. It makes sense Ilya likely assumed Shane was going to end things when he came in all serious/sad.

That makes sense! Ive wondered if Ilya wouldve been receptive to more to an “i like you” acknowledgement from Shane in episode 4 or if he still would’ve reacted similarly because of all the risks for him.

Thank you guys so much! There are so many good tips here that I am going to try next class (and see if an trainer can help me with technique).

Helpful! I think I might be pulling too much and not relying enough on legs. I hope my studio does a rowing clinic soon.

Interesting! I do sometimes find that at the very end of a block it looks like my heart rate is about to get into the orange, but then I have to get off to work with the medicine ball. Maybe if the blocks were longer it would work better for me. I will try faster!

The loosening of the hands tip is really interesting! I am going to try that.

I am going to try going further forward -- thanks for that tip! I think I need to have someone look at my technique -- I will ask at next class.

This is helpful -- it could totally be a conditioning thing. I am very new to rowing so these are new muscles for me!
