What stroke rating are you most efficient at?  Use today’s Rowing WOD as an opportunity to gain confidence and figure out what your most efficient race pace is for the next time you have to do a 2k or 1k… perhaps the Renegade Rowing League that’s in the works for this spring?  Get after it and get ready to race!

Post your best average split and the stroke rating you maintained.

Note whether it was because you were fresh or because that stroke rating seemed easier for maintaining a faster split.

All the Renegades!

It has been 6 weeks.  We’ve made it through one cycle of the Renegade Rowing Training Plan, members at CrossFit Boston have transformed themselves, and the Renegade Rowing Club has thrown down at the 2014 CRASH-B Indoor World Rowing Championships.  How did you do?  Did you PR your 2k or change your lifestyle?  What can you improve and how will you do better over the next 6 weeks?

RR CRASH-B Coach PatCheckout some pictures of the Renegade Rowing Club after they threw down at CRASH-B’s yesterday.  It was a blast training them and I can’t wait to see them continue to follow their passion for the Sport of Rowing.

I’m working on putting the details together for a Spring Renegade Rowing Club and Renegade Rowing League to get Masters Rowers ready for the summer season.  I’ll also be revealing how Renegade Rowing plans to grow and spread the best sport in the world to the masses.

RR CRASH-B AfternoonThe focus of today is Strength, so be sure to get in the Strength WOD of 3×10 Deadlifts @70% of the 1RM (which we tested last week).  If time allows, choose the blocks that will help you improve as an athlete.  If you have enough time for all three blocks then attack them all!

Yesterday the Boston College Men’s Rowing Team got a chance to throw down their best 2k Row with Renegade Rowing and CrossFit Boston.  Today there will be a number of BC Men and Renegade Rowers throwing down at Boston University’s Agannis Arena.  It’s been a fun winter of training thus far and I’d like to wish everyone competing the best of luck.

Looking forward to helping as many athletes and rowers as possible reach their goals!

Have Fun and Row Hard!

2k Row

Today’s Rowing WOD is a 2k Row.  It’s a test of how much pain and glory you can endure over seven to eight minutes.  Grab some friends and get after it.  This is the third time we’ve tested the 2k this winter.  Today you’re rowing in honor of those competing at CRASH-B’s on Sunday.  CRASH-B’s is the World Indoor Rowing Championship held at Boston University’s Agganis Arena.  Many rowers and crossfitters from across the world are flocking to Boston to see what they’ve got and drop the hammer.

If you’re one of the athletes competing at CRASH-B’s you should do some mobility and a few starts in place of today’s 2k.  Rest, hydrate, eat well, and get fired up for Sunday!

Happy Valentine’s Day!  I hope you get a chance to spend time with someone you care about and show them how you feel.  I love everyone that has given this thing called Renegade Rowing a shot and I thank you for every day that you do your best to make our world a better place.  Now give this workout a shot and crush it!

Are you ready for CRASH-B’s or your closest indoor event?  The World Indoor Rowing Championships are this Sunday on February 16th.  Use today as a day to mentally prepare and recover.  Have fun hitting the Strength and Conditioning WOD and use the Rowing WOD to smooth everything out, breath, and mentally prepare for Sunday.  Be sure to mobilize well before and after so that there are no kinks holding you back on race day.

Bring on the weekend!
