20 mins at 26spm - MID TIER WORKOUT

Pace Guide = 2K+9-10 Effort Guide = 8 (will end closer to 9.5-10/10) Speech = Not constant

This is a very top end MID workout. If you push the pace too early - you'll tip into the TOP tier for it. I don't even throw in a suprise sprint at the end, as I want this to remain in the MID tier. If you want to make this a TOP workout - just load 5000m into your monitor, and go for it. But replace the TOP tier workout from whatever week you're doing this.

I row all of the intervals at the correct strokes per minute. The Concept2 rowing machine has a very obvious woosh to each stroke - so just follow along with me, keep an eye on the SPM display on your monitor too - and increase or decrease your speed as required. And I'll keep you company along the way with various ramblings. If you don't know your 2K pace - row a 2000m time trial and look at the average /500m on the screen at the end. That is your 2K pace. So if it says 2:05 as your average - your 18spm rate above will be 2:25 pace. www.RowAlong.com is the website behind all of this - all these podcasts originate as Videos on my RowAlong YouTube channel if you want to see me as well as hear me.
