Thought i would have a pop at the 500m times last night at the gym.<br />
<br />
Managed 136.6<br />
<br />
But fucked myelf up for the rest of the session. -
Yip that sucked!<br />
<br />
Thought that I will start to get back into doing a row before getting into weights and start off with the shortest distance. Totally fucked myself for the rest of the workout as well. Thought I was cruising at 1:34 for the fist 300 meters and then hit the wall with a minute to go and had nothing in the end.<br />
<br />
Posted a time of 1:41<br />
<br />
Not too happy but it is a start. Been a year since a rowed last so it is only up from here -
Had a race with my mate that I train with at the gym after we did a legs session.<br />
<br />
He's younger and much fitter and stronger but he's only 5'5" and I'm 6'3" so I took his challenge and nearly killed my self trying to win. Saw the pinking stars when finished but I DID BEAT THE YOUNG TACKER!!!!<br />
<br />
After 400 gone I could see he couldn't catch me so buttoned right off (I was stuffed anyway but would have kept pushing myself if it was closer) and managed it in 1.35.00. I was pretty stoked with that especially as I did the last 100 at about 2.00-2:05 pace.<br />
<br />
Next race is 2000 metres which he stands a much better show as he's so fit. I reckon though if I can maintain 2:00 for the majority I'll have enough to beat him in the final few hundred metres. -
yeah, break it into 500m chunks, hard out first 500, 'cruise' for the next, maintaining your lead (so row at whatever rate he is), then another effort for the next 500, and then see what happens in the last, if you need to keep going hard out, or you can cruise home comfortably...<br />
<br />
Like Cutter said, break him in the head first, and the body will follow!! -
fark, I don't know if I can actaully pull that low!!<br />
<br />
I sub 1:39 for all 4 500m in my best ever time of sub 6:30.<br />
<br />
I reckon aim for 1:45 for the first 500, and if you can hold that, you'll do a 7 minute 2k, even less when you sprint the last few hundred.<br />
<br />
It is all in your head though these distances, I love it, and the feeling of death at the end! -

<br />
6:30 is just stupidly insane for 200metres!! That is awesome!! I will beat him, I can't be beat by some wippersnapper -
I don't know how you guys can do it so quickly . I did a 1:53 and thought i was going to bring up a lung .

[quote name='cyclopath']If you like 500m, do the interval thing. 500m / 1 min rest / 500m and so on. I do 10 (so 5000m) and try to keep them at 1.53-55. Bloody good workout! I haven't actually tried a single 500m for ages. Must do it.[/QUOTE]<br />
<br />
I tend to do the 500m interval thingy as well, I tried another 500m after the 1.41.6. BUt I will still catching my breath from the first 500, so struggled to a 1.58
