These tried-and-true workouts harken back to the rich history of on-water rowing. Do these workouts, and you are channeling the blood, sweat, and tears of on-water rowers going back nearly 200 years to the beginnings of the sport. Many of these are Michigan Tech “Row with the Crew” workouts, or ones that college or masters crews use in their winter or off-water training. Don’t be intimidated by that, though. By adjusting your effort level you can adapt them to any fitness level. The workouts were designed either by on-water rowing coaches or UCanRow2 master instructors with years of experience teaching indoor rowing and coaching on-water rowing.
