FAQs
Do I need rowing experience?
No. Intensity guidance and pacing cues make this accessible for all levels.
Is this just long, boring cardio?
No. Training includes a full range of intensities—long, short, fast, and uncomfortable.
Can I pair this with strength training?
Absolutely. This program works great alongside 2–4 days of strength work.
