Under 16 faster than the Olympic gold winners.... Must be the spaghetti... Or an 'easier' stretch I hope you're joking The times are different depending on the lake, and you must be ignorant if you Don't consider that the winners usually go in the 6:10-20 range with their world record being 6:08.5 ...

The times are different depending on the lake, and you must be ignorant if you Don't consider that the winners usually go in the 6:10-20 range with their world record being 6:08.5

So right now I'm at around 6:40-45 and the next nationals are in june 2017, I'm currently doing 60 min of steady state running a day with few bursts and some muscular training, what do you think is gonna get me faster in this fraction of time?(I'm 17/191cm/83-85kgs) I will restart training specifica...

Actually at the italian junior championship and also in the under 16 class the winners will be around 7 this year in both categories the winners were 6:59, and I also know a few guys that went to the junior' worlds who went 6:45~50 at a regional regatta, btw they're around 6:16-20 for 2k so I guess ...

Nobody??

Hi, I was wondering what It takes fitnesswise and techniquewise to reach a 7:00 or below 2k on the pair, so the people who did that can please tell me: 2/6k scores of yourselves and your partner, weight height and (I know It's difficult) the technique level; also everybody who's ever rowed a pair ca...

I'm sorry If you miss understood, my main question was about sculling drills, ilK'm not so interested in the comparison between erg scores and otw

Hi, I'm writing this post because I always wondered what are yours 2k time on the single scull?, I'm usually around 8:00 (take or leave 20 sec depending on the lake) and by seeing different threads and videos on the web I had the impression that the sculling level in America is not so high so first ...

And, However If you really raise the quality of your workouts and the the volume you will probably be sub 7 in 6 months so know your goal(s) and any action in your daily life should really be after asking yourself If that would make you faster.

Last year I was 15 6' 165 lbs and had a 7:28 pb, at the start of the year after a 2 week summer brake I pulled a 7:31 after a month back into training I went 7:04.7 so is not impossible, of course now that I am in the 6:45-50 i realized that the big difference was about all aspects of fitness: flexi...

*the 10 k was not a test

Thanks everybody for the responses, I asked about the 2k because It was done a few months ago and in a very hot room where everybody did slower or fainted at the halfway mark. The most recent piece I've done is a 10 k holding 1:54.6 at 23 spm(for what It's worth). However I followed this forum a lot...

So I didn't tested recently but my last 2k was a 6:57.3 a few months ago. The last all out tests (although they were meant to be workouts) are a 6x5:00/3:00 rest at 1:47.5 at 27 spm and a 500 m time trial at 1:30.1( rowed at 38 spm just to make correlations with 2k so probably could have gone faster...
