What are you training for this Summer?
As we come to the end of the spring season it’s time to look forward to the Summer. What will you be training for? A competition? A race? A wedding? Please share your goals for this Summer in the comments.
Good Luck to all High School Rowers competing this weekend in championship regattas and all College Rowers competing at the ACRA Championships.
Have Fun!
Rowing WOD:
4 Rounds For Time:
10 Tuck Jumps
200m Run
300m Row
Fire it UP!!! It’s Friday and it’s time to get after the weekend! I hope you all had a good week and you’re ready to go into the weekend strong. Tomorrow we have our first 1k test of the summer.
Today’s Rowing WOD is an opportunity to dial in the splits and game plan you’d like to execute tomorrow. The tuck jumps will get your adrenaline going and simulate the first 10 strokes of the start. Focus on breathing and being consistent with your pace for the 200m run. When you get on the erg be prepared mentally with a positive mental cue and a split you plan to hold. The first round should be performed like the start of your 1k. The second and third round should be performed like the middle of the race. The last 300m piece should be rowed at negative splits like your sprint.
Move well, have some fun, and get ready for the weekend! It’s FRIDAY!!!
Post time and 1k goal to comments.

Getting ready to shove off the dock for the first time!
Enjoy Regionals!
Athletes around the globe have been training all year for a shot at Regionals and a chance to make it to the Games. Now is the time to see all of that hard work pay off. Good luck to all competitors and I hope everyone has a great weekend!
On the water, rowers have been working hard all spring for the US Rowing Regional Championships. This weekend junior teams from the Northeast will be competing in Lowell, MA on the Merrimack River for a chance to compete at Nationals in June. Good luck to all crews!
