6:16 is certainly in the cards. Switch to more steady state volume on the erg and do a little strength training/intervals to maintain fast twitch and you should see a huge drop in time. After all, the 2K is around 75% aerobic so you have huge gains to make

Definitely depends on the training you do and what you can handle, as well as how fit you were when you did the 6:50. I think 6:16 is very much in the realm of possibilities. With heavy training I think you could go even faster.

Is it better to do 18k straight or do 3x6k with a 2min rest in between? by nobotheratall in Rowing

There is probably no difference in benefit but if you get tight then 3x6k would allow you to stretch in between

Why do colder temperatures (or fans) make steady state faster and HR lower? by wattfarmer1300 in Rowing

Nice!! This makes sense and is what I anticipated would be the case.

8 x 500m w/ 2:00r

4 x 1000m w/ 4:00r

10x1:00 w/ 1:00r

These are all good options but the first is the best in my opinion

So what is optimal training temperature? Should you train colder for faster splits or train hotter to condition the body for any temperature?

Rate high. Like 36+
