RowAlong - Indoor Rowing Workouts

A great standalone MAX EFFORT rowing workout - or if you're rowing 30 days of 30 minute rows, this is the 17th Day of the series. Start easy, and end up at MAX on the Intensity Pyramid by increasing rate and pace. 🚣15 / 10 / 5 mins intervals with no rest!🚣‍♀️➔Pace Guide =15mins at 20spm / 2K+ 18 10mins at 24spm / 2K+12 5 mins at 28spm / 2K+5 or faster➔Effort = Starts at 5/10 - ends at 10/10➔Speech = Comfortable - then gasping for air by the end! ❗ This one sneaks up on you. The easy start soon gets the edges knocked off by hitting the 24spm - and when the 28spm comes along, you should be hanging on until the end! ❗00:00 Introduction01:46 Warmup06:29 RowAlong Workout37:39 Cooldown and time to stretch while I sign off.

A great standalone HARD rowing workout. And it's the Bon Jovi Row. Halfway through the 30 days of 30 minute rows.Push the pace at 20 stroke per minute by a couple of seconds. I know!

Tough by the end!It's Bon Jovi day - we're half way there! And my reward to you for getting this far is allowing you to push the 20spm rate a bit. Aren't I nice? So instead of the usual 2K+18 - push the pace up to 2K+15 or faster. But be sure to keep this at a MID intensity. If you feel like it's nudging TOP - you're going too hard!! *00:00 Introduction01:54 Warmup07:20 RowAlong Workout38:22 Cooldown and time to stretch while I sign off.
