Incredible efforts and contributions are coming from every direction. Matt "The Olympian" Frediani is the first on our team to break the 100K mark and no sign of slowing down...big Jim "Pops" Martin made his presence known in this contest and threw in his first 1500 as well as a handful of others who are jumping into the action and chipping away. We crossed over the 500K mark at some point early this morning and we are way ahead of our 2,000,000 meter goal, let's aim higher, but let's get there first.
Tomorrow is going to be our first Record Setting Sunday. Pick your best row total and try to blow it out. If you have the convenience what a great way to pick up meters AND watch a football game. How ever you can do it, make the attempt to set a new PR on the "erg"...the time you spend pushing yourself on the "erg" will increase your mental toughness and resolve. It will reveal itself in a number of different ways.
Next week I will provide a couple of thoughts on making your rowing a little more bearable as you continue to adapt to the increased volume.
- Protecting your extremities - hands, butt, back, etc.
- Workouts - add volume without the "agony" of simply pulling chain
- Nutrition - Sub 5K rows can be done with water alone, but your body needs additional support as your time on the slide increases and how can you recover to do it again. I will share what I do and the products I use
- Additional inspirational perspectives to ponder as you row
