If the process is right the results come. .... but it isn’t all metres in the bank. Muttley, there is a fine line between building endurance or rowing a lot of metres in the “dead zone” Nice late morning 10km Nellers. ( I was up and gone by 4am) 🙂 MT. your L3 is quite a bit ahead of mine. AS are your daily totals !! 😎
Jef Dec 2018 3:47pm, 11 Dec 2018 66 posts	Quote Pin Jef Just finished work.. but knackered but you lot inspire me. .. 2km. I wonder if a quick visit to the work erg is in order. See what a months L4 has got me.
Jef Dec 2018 7:18pm, 11 Dec 2018 67 posts	Quote Pin Jef Good warm up. Tried to keep the stroke over 30. A month of only L4 hasn’t lent enough faster stroke practice. I’d decided to give it a month to see if I got the bug back. I’ve got the bug back. 1 year to BRIC, aiming for a sub 7 in 50+ Lightweights. Cmon !!

sallykate Dec 2018 7:30pm, 11 Dec 2018 5,874 posts	Quote Pin sallykate Go for it Jef! I was struck by the slow stroke rate that the GB rowers used when warming up (compared to their peak of 40spm in the 2K!)

Mouseytongue Dec 2018 7:33pm, 11 Dec 2018 2,737 posts	Quote Pin Mouseytongue 40spm is insane. I can’t comprehend pulling that quickly.
Cats Whiskers Dec 2018 7:35pm, 11 Dec 2018 455 posts	Quote Pin Cats Whiskers 40spm?! I thought that kind of stroke rate was reserved for the shorter sprints. My coordination goes as soon as I get over about 34s/m. How slow is slow during the warm-up?
Cats Whiskers Dec 2018 7:37pm, 11 Dec 2018 456 posts	Quote Pin Cats Whiskers I agree, Mousey. I tend to have quite a high s/r but the "power" (it's all relative!) wanes as the s/r increases. I don't want to imagine the lactic they must have been feeling at the end.
