2k erg motivation

Moat slays the 2k

[@suzykaragosian6453]

first boy finished at 6:00. that's a 1:30 avg. respect

[@henryhorwoodverstappen8126]

I think it was faster

[@maxthebeastgrice]

Henry Horwood Verstappen I found you....:)

[@k9aid514]

+Suzy VanderGheynst-Karagosian yea thats about what i figured 6:00 impressed

Separating out the specific parts and tools for each of the seven step assembly process steps was brilliant on the part of the manufacturer. For the price, I am impressed at how sturdy this kzbin.infoUgkxvObaTzoHoHQLL4lHbJQmExHqsrZQm-f7 unit is and it does go together easily. Well, I was puzzled at first at Step 5 and maybe the instructions should mention that rail #62 needs to be tilted upwards a little to get the rail to fit into the main part #44. I like it that the rower can be stored vertically in a really small amount of space, but be forewarned that this rower is top heavy and for safety you'll need at least two bungee cords to keep the unit upright, attaching them to something; in my case to a third garage door. I have had this unit only a short time, and I will post an update once I've had it for a year. As for working your legs, I have to admit that I'm mainly rowing for upper body strength and I use other forms of exercise for leg strength (like walking fast, biking, or using a trampoline. But if you pull as far forward as possible, then you can give preference to your legs for the first 4 feet or so of travel. I also admit to not taking the two electronic connectors apart at Step 7. I simply inserted the two batteries while the other parts remained connected. By the way, there is plenty of resistance here, even in the lowest resistance settings. Kudos to Sunny Health & Fitness !

Too many A-holes on here telling these guys that pulling a good erg piece doesn't mean you can row a fast 2k on the water. What a stupid point. This video is about committed athletes burying themselves on the way to a goal. Period. Worry about the water in due time. Savage work, men.

[@gabrielherman8930]

Yeah I mean it’s a good point but idk wtf it has to do with this video

[@feelthewheel984]

Having just seen this video for the 1st time, I guessed exactly who would finish first just from his technique on the drive. Notice his catch position (sitting tall -- neutral lumbar...1 o'clock position), strong drive with legs and hips. Look at how hangs his torso firm off them...no early breakage of the arms like the others. His rib cage/intercostals engaged, extended, and connected to his lower half so he can push with the large muscle group efficiently with the push-hang-swing-squeeze. Nice control on recovery. Well done. Row well on the erg and it will transfer to the boat. Too many rowers get caught into bad habits on the erg in order to get better scores. Easy to do when balance, blade work and sensitivity to the movement of the boat isn't in question. This is exactly when one has to practice application of power in the right sequence. This is what separates the "great" rowers from the "good" rowers.

[@alicewilliams8650]

I listen to this before every race, test and hard session I do.

[@ike45mc]

I used to do a 2k 4x a week last year for about a month. My motivation to push down for the harder pieces skyrocketed and my erg time lowered SO much.

[@AsSaSsiNxPANDA]

those asking for times, the first guy finished at 6:25, and they started at 00:25 so 6 min or 1:30 split

[@010MACS]

good guess...well, working out. i can tell you he was under 6, maybe you can work out by how much ;) most guys here did around 610. then a few a bit behind.

[@jacko791]

From memory I think the scores were: 5:58, 6:15, 6:15, 6:20, 6:40, 6:43

[@lucaslageguida3571]

jacko791 its super fast im from brazil and our best time is something like 5:59 how you guys make that how you train ? please jacko791 tell me

[@010MACS]

Good try ;) all I'll say is, a lot

[@dhallbreakfast6396]

1:30? My best is 2:01.8 I am 13, but like still dude

[@justiceball6365]

[@gramulho1]

Good lads! I feel your pain, and i rejoice it! Thanks for sharing it... :)

[@CoDWiiPS3Gameplay]

Yeah same. I pull mid 6:50's now. If I could get down into the 40's over the next few months I'd be super happy.

[@wishiknew1974]

This is a great little bike and so affordable. You'll be amazed at how quiet it is too. Highly recommend.

[@Biggyfootrules]

watching this makes me feel sick....

[@jasonhughes2305]

[@CleverOsculator]

preparing for a test tomorrow afternoon, watching this already gives me the butterflies!

[@CleverOsculator]

HOLY CRAP! The guy in red lycra - looks like a 5.59! Guy at the front I think did 6.41ish (which I am am aiming to get to in the next few months) This puts where I am at into perspective...

[@SuperCharlieClarke]

Excuse me, can someone tell me how much should be AR, Ap, A2, A1, A0 that I went between 1:45 -1: 50 to two kilometers

[@ericcunningham97]

Explosions in the Sky background music, right?

[@dinodxb1210]

This is Newcastle right?

[@Bensey29]

which song is it by explosions in the sky?

[@Warriorf76ball]

Newcastle in blue + red/white stripes, the guy in red i'm not sure. He could be from Grey College, Durham or a local club

[@armgw]

What is this song? Is it Band of Horses??

[@foodisgooood]

lol damn the guy in the red got 6 min flat

[@ursosexmachina]

my lowest avg on a 2k is 1:58.9

[@ItsOnlyKetchupYT]

Guy in the back seriously died during the sprint. I don't blame him

[@March_Forth_Creative]

Great speech on the voice over. Who is it?

[@CleverOsculator]

eric thomas, ET the hiphop preacher

[@xenomuller1263]

Who are these rowers? Who is their coach?

[@jacko791]

This is Newcastle University, in the UK. This is the 2012 squad. Some video of them on the water: Newcastle University 1st VIII 2012

[@xenomuller1263]

Thank you

[@010MACS]

Xeno Müller Coach is Angelo Savarino...sorry for lateness of reply!!

[@Biggyfootrules]

010MACS hahahahaha only a bit late :P

[@sportsdude9999]

[@thatmanstan248]

Who does the speech?

Eric thomas

[@BloodyBlackHearts21]

i'll be lucky when I get under 9 minutes lmao.

[@didemyldrm6142]

lolll

[@EmoEwok666]

It's all nice people saying 'Oh i have a super fast 2K'... very good but dosent neccesarily mean you can row a racing shell where a water 2k really matters

[@Mtvsam]

EmoEwok666 nope. What you pull on the erg shows what you can pull on a boat. Of course for heavyweight the erg will be different but for lightweight erg does matter

[@BlueMerlin77]

Look for ''Succes how bad do you want it'' and you can see the speech itself and several motivational videos with this speech

[@bepe8]

I have a 6k

[@agsrf6479]

lol these guys need motivation for 2k when we do 4.5+4,5k test xD

[@Mtvsam]

Triggered Atheist split?

[@agsrf6479]

yes 4,5+4,5 with a 5 min break in between

[@annzbik]

I'm 13 my 2k is 7.30.9 which is 1.52.7 as a split and I'm 163 cm tall

[@Daniel-cy2ph]

Man... Rowers don't talk about their 2k times - that's like asking a girl for her weight or age :D

[@memyselfandcube457]

+dakemner dakemner Don't listen to this guy. Conlin McCabe does such a thing and look where he is. Same with Murray and Bond, and other very respectable crews.
