This training guide contains five 12-week training programmes for The Great Row, that will get you in great shape for whichever challenge you decide to take on, whether it’s the 2000m Training Plan, Boat Race (6779m) Training Plan, Half Marathon (21,097m) Training Plan, Marathon (42,195m) Training Plan or the Team Training Plan.

Before getting started on your training programme, there are a few things we recommend you get comfortable with.

Learn Proper Technique

Learning proper technique from the start will help you row better and faster in the long run. It will also help prevent injury and keep you from developing bad technique habits that are difficult to break.

The best way to check your technique is with a qualified instructor who can observe what you are doing. If that’s not possible, check out the technique video on the Concept2 website. If you can, try and film yourself rowing so you can compare your technique to that on the video.

Track Your Progress

Monitoring your progress is one of the best ways to stay motivated and achieve your goals. You can sign up for the Concept2 Online Logbook, where you can record all your workouts. If you prefer paper, we have included a Logbook page in this training guide for you to print out and use.

Get the Most Out of Your Monitor

Familiarise yourself with the monitor on your rowing machine and the feedback it gives. The most important of these is pace. Pace is displayed as the time it will take you to row 500m. The monitor can also show your watt output, the calories per hour and things like your strokes per minute. If you use a heart rate belt, you can also display your heart rate on the monitor.

The monitor is designed to be menu-driven and self-explanatory, but if you have any questions, go to the Performance Monitor section of the Concept2 website.

Getting Started

Adjust the foot stretchers on the machine to fit your feet.

Set the flywheel damper between 3 and 5 for the best aerobic workout.

Warm up with several minutes of easy rowing.

If you haven’t used a rowing machine before, or if you’re starting after an absence, we recommend you start with a few simple workouts and build up gradually. You can find a list of First Workouts in the Training Programmes section on the Concept2 website.

WARNING: The information provided within this guide is not intended to be a substitute for medical advice. Indoor rowing can involve demanding physical exercise. We recommend that you check with your doctor prior to starting any of the programmes to ensure that you are physically able to undertake such exercise. Concept2 Ltd accepts no responsibility for illness or injury resulting from the use of this guide.

The intensity of each piece is down to the user. Try and pick the fastest pace at which you can complete each interval at an even rate, but this will necessarily be a matter of trial and error while you start your training programme.

The stroke rate and damper setting are also down to you. A damper setting of between 3 and 5 will be suitable for most people.

WEEK STARTING WORKOUT DETAIL DESCRIPTION

Team Training Program

The intensity of each piece is down to the user. Try and pick the fastest pace at which you can complete each interval at an even rate, but this will necessarily be a matter of trial and error while you start your training programme.

The stroke rate and damper setting are also down to you. A damper setting of between 3 and 5 will be suitable for most people.

For help on setting the monitor for interval workouts, please see the How To Use section of the Concept2 UK website (www.concept2.co.uk/service/monitors/pm3/how-to-use).
