Rowing can sometimes look far more intimidating than it needs to.
You see someone hammering away at a ridiculous pace, dripping with sweat, calling something “easy” that looks anything but — and it’s easy to wonder whether you’re doing enough.
Today, forget all of that.
I’m rowing this one super easy, at around 15 strokes per minute, because right now that’s what my body is asking for.
And that incredibly low rate gives us something useful too: time.
Time to get the hands away.
Time to sit up.
Time to tilt forwards.
Time to roll smoothly towards the catch.
And then still put in a purposeful one-second drive without rushing anything.
So whether you’re new to rowing, coming back after a break, building general fitness, or simply having a day when your body is asking for less, this is a workout you can make your own.
Follow my rhythm if you want. Row a little faster if that feels better. Or simply use the chat and keep moving.
The important thing today isn’t chasing a number.
It’s listening to your body and giving it the row it needs today.
