40 minute Push Pace Rowing Machine Workout - Start soft, end MAX! 10KW1S3

Start slow and increase pace every 4 minutes to give yourself an amazing Indoor Rowing Workout. You don't have to use a Concept2. Any rowing machine will do - but the pace guide is based on a Concept2.

🚣 40 minutes - increase pace by 2seconds every four minutes 🚣‍♀️

➔Pace Guide = Start at 2K+25 and end at 2K+7
➔Effort = Starts at 4/10 - ends at 10/10
➔Speech = Comfortable - then gasping for air by the end!

❗ You'll want to go faster than 2K+25 when you start. Don't. Stick to the soft start, and increase by 2 seconds until the end. Going too fast too soon will catch up on you - and you'll lose the point of this workout ❗

This is an awesome standalone rowing workout - but it will also help boost your 10km row. Which is why this is down as Week 1 Session 3 of the 10Km plan

🚥Programming the monitor🚥

You can find this whole session to pre-program your Concept2 PM5 monitor using the Ergzone app. Use the Discover tab to find "RowAlong" and then pick RA47 for this row. (You still need to play the video on YouTube).

🔵🔵🔵 SHOWING SUPPORT FOR ROWALONG 🔵🔵🔵

I've been asked a few times about the best way to support what I'm doing. Honestly, the best way is just to watch and subscribe using this link:    / @rowalong  )
More views lead to more views - and I'm really just interested in getting more people on board to RowAlong with. (Make sure to click the notification bell to be alerted when I upload new workouts)

That said, I know that there are some people who want to show their support financially, and as much as I've shied away from giving out links to this before - I've been advised to at least provide the links - to stop someone spoofing me!! So....

Patreon:   / rowalong  
PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_...

But seriously - just keep watching, that's all I ask!!

🔵🔵🔵

This workout is provided as usual WITHOUT MUSIC. If you want music, why not load up another YouTube tab, or maybe Soundcloud and pick your own tunes. As always, follow me for stroke rate. And I'll keep you company for the row with training tips, technique tips, and my usual general waffle.

See you in the next video.

ℹℹℹℹℹℹ - 2K training paces are based on your current best performance to row 2000m. Set your monitor to 2000m and row it as fast as you can. When you're finished either look at the memory screen for that row, and note the Average /500m pace - or just divide your time by 4 to find that out.

For instance - if you rowed your 2000m in 8:20 - the average pace for 500m is 2:05. It doesn't matter if you started at 1:50 and then slowed down to 2:20 by the end - your average across the whole row is 2:05.

So when I give a pace guide saying "2K + 18 seconds" - that means that you take your 2K time, and add 18 seconds to it (in the above example, 2:05 + 18 = 2:23 pace.) Just be sure to set your monitor so it displays your /500m pace so you can stay on target.

Every time you think you're getting faster, rather than just arbitrarily changing the pace guide - do another 2000m test to find your current 2K average time - and then work from that. ℹℹℹℹℹℹ
