I think “2000m of pure pain” is a bit dramatic. I find that the first 50m is easy and then the next 1950m is pain

no it is 4000m of pain. You first need to row to the 2000 with all those big guys behind and in the front of your boat.

more like 1800 meters of pure pain.

If you never experienced it, you can't really imagine it. I think that's a sport that mentally shapes you.

good video... it would be great to some day see the real time correlation of lactate levels during the different phases of a race. And watch as the rower suffers the inevitable plunge into the darkness :)

"the rower suffers the inevitable plunge into the darkness" what a painful but incredibly truthful sentence :D

A well known but seldom mentioned practice for dealing with "the rest of the race after the opening burst" is conscious EX-halation. Between 5 and 10 deliberate exhalations at the moment you feel you're going into a fade will put you right back into the action. This works. You will know that it works because when you have about 30 to 50 strokes to the finish line you will want to repeat the series of exhales and then go for broke. I believe that the rowers who are celebrating and have something left after crossing the finish line are the ones who exhaled and overall had the best control of their breathing. (They are also probably the ones with oversized hearts.)

Yup,,, that always worked for me also. Getting as much of the air out, so the lungs can refill with air at a higher oxygen content percentage.

What do you mean oversized heart, how so an advantage?
@klauskoter30443 жыл бұрын
@@vonschenck6464 They have a bigger heart that pumps more blood faster. The heart is a muscle and just like your bicep, with the right training and steroids it gets bigger and stronger

I think what's more accurate is 1500m of pure pain. those first 500m is easy. the rest is awful
