GIRLS ARE TEMPORARY!!! 5KM ERG SPILT IS FOREVER
Would love to get you on the new season!
@@giorgioa.tsoukalossfan2276 there is no new season.... Just steady state
I can already taste blood in my mouth reading this comment.
@@deanesiakimotu7803 go big or go home
We had " Pain is temporary; victory is forever" printed on our rowing team shirt. Is it a quote from somewhere?
Legs on fire, hearing going, tunnel vision..... Just as you pass the halfway point. Brutal sport.
Georgio had a fascinating discussion on this on the latest season! Available to watch now! Not to miss...
Triathlon competitor here... And I WISH I was rowing when I had to swim for 2 km and cycling for 80km right after 😂
These people saying rowing was the toughest cardio definitely never tried other sports
Ajay Harry Simon good for you!
Ajay Harry Simon would like to see you hit the splits these guys doing for a 2k
Ajay Harry Simon Rowing is all about effort obviously if you don’t try you’re not gonna get a good workout. You honestly probably don’t push hard enough
You know you’ve trained hard - when someone has to put you in the “recovery position”...😳😂😂
Ive never seen that before in any sport its incredible
i only did rowing for about 2 years and all i remember was how the whole room would collapse to the floor and puke after every test piece. It is the toughest sport i ever did i think.
@John Buffalo I am 97 I row and play rugby. Both are brilliant and tough sports, but for me rugby can't match the crazy mental places you have to push yourself to that rowing requires.
@@wazazaza2 I usually am against the jousting of sports and such but I do have to agree with the rugby man on this one, not saying rugby is the hardest but row is certainly not a crazy insane hard sport in a mental or physical aspect, To me, I believe the single hardest of sports are combat sports, especially bazed off weight classes such as wrestling or mma, required peak physical performance and discipline to make weight cuts and conditioning. Numerous high level coaches say that wrestlers make some of the best athletes for their crazy good conditioning
but thats just me a d ny opinion, in the end its all subjective
Rowing was a torture some years ago
Everyone just needs to try rowing for a year or two and then say things about it
We had to do rowing in PE and i have never hated exercise as much as I did back then
The fact that these guys don't get paid is a disgrace
Unfortunately athletes don’t get paid based on how hard they work. It’s all about popularity
They do... They get lottery funding to cover living costs
If u win a gold medal u get loaded
GB rowers get a hell of a lot more than other countries.
But it’s not a great deal - 20k a year max.
These British men were so honest. Connected to their emotions in ways rarely seen. Really impressive.
Exhaustion will do that. Fatigue makes cowards of all men!
no sport will have you confront your own fragility like rowing does.
@@beforeverfighting is the ultimate sport. The fear of being killed is above all.
If you're watching this you're not doing steady state....
Super Noodles I warm up with this ... 2000m in 8 to 12 mins, I think I have done it under 8 minutes one probably due to bad technique.
@@egbukwuprince keep working hard :) make sure you finish the press fully :) make the most of your legs!
I did my steady state this morning ;) 70 min Z2-Z3
@@JKDubski ... And what are your doing this evening???
@@supernoodles908 prob lifts at the gym. Def not going to do another round of steady state! lol
Cool interviews but way to not show or elaborate on their training at all lol. Would of been nice to see how far they were going
It’s not the distance that gets you, it’s the intensity.
I’d FAR rather do 10k steady state than a set of 500m intervals. 🤮🤮🤮🤮
GB don't like anyone knowing the specifics of their training. Got to be something like 2 ergs and 1 weights a day tho plus some minor recovery stuff, so 30km+ if it's all ut2
I respect that but knowing the distance and time of maybe just one of the participants would of been cool. Plenty of other athletes in other sports share information like this without jeopardizing the secrecy of their overall training plan
Depends on the work. Classic sessions are 24k around rate 18 "stead state", 30 minutes rate 20 (Pinsents record for that was over 9,000m at altitude). 5km flat out and 2km flat out. Standard will be around 15:30 for 5km and 5:50 for 2km.
Know I'm a bit late but splits are in the region of 1:49 (if I remember correctly Barnabe Delarze pulls 1:45) for their steady state, which is the bulk of what they're doing. They're doing roughly 40k a day of SS plus a weights session, bike or a higher intensity piece. I'd imagine they do very few high intensity pieces because at altitude fatigue builds up really quickly and recovery takes longer.
I got really emotional there, nice to see such honest lads. Rowing is the tuffest sport their is, but their is a lot more to it. The group bonding, being on the water energizes you and the rowing it self is like meditation.
Yes exactly - the bonding, emotional connection with oneself as you strive to improve and excel in a demanding sport, and the motion itself is quite the meditation. Very emotional experience.
I am sorry to say but rowing isnt the toughest sport… fighting is
@@ewoutstorm4626 ok shap
"tuffest" 😂
@@ewoutstorm4626 "toughest" means a lot of things. I would argue rowing is absolutely one of the toughest cardiovascular endurance sports there is. A "fighter" wouldn't come close to the cadiovascular output required of an Olympic level rower. And by no means is a rower "tough" enough to compete against an elite fighter. "Toughness" to me means a combination of cardiovascular endurance, athleticism and perhaps, most important of all, mental fortitude - and putting all of that together in a singular event... that is toughness. Cycling, cross-country skiing and rowing require a level of mental toughness not many athletes can touch.
Humble giants. I’m not even british but wish them good luck in tokyo
n0twist1 they'll probably lost to us or germany tho
And probably wont be in tokyo now
Probably not now.
The part of rowing I loved? Sitting there screaming at your teammate to pull harder on the erg, and knowing his score will knock you off the boat.
Nothing like it in the world
I almost cried... I have so much respect for these guys, this is the true spirit of sport ! Even though I'm french I hope they will kill it in Tokyo next summer 💪💪
Rowed the ergo for 20 years..... and the twunts in the gym simply can't imagine how hard it is to push a decent 2 or 5k. Good luck fellas... hardest and fittest on the planet. Rowing forever.
NCB hardest and fittest compare to what sportt?.. jeez rowers is the only sport who thinks they are the toughest. I swear
@@Ajayharrysimon the ones mentioned in this video for a start. ruclips.net/video/bGuTgIfDU_k/видео.html
Just did a 2k and this popped up on my RUclips feed. I’d almost rather do a 20k at 90% than a 2k at 100%…oof.
@@erict2899
That last ten percent is … intense
how fast is decent 2 or 5km?
Rowing, cycling, track and swimming are insane sports when your pushing the limits
Most Unique hurt like hell
L- Eazy especially if your trying to be good at them
Most Unique especially when there’s no limit and you decide how far you want to go
10000% agree
100% agree. I think that all the sports where you don't have to actively think about your next move, are the physically hardest ones.
Man, I love rowing! Utterly brutal - there is NOWHERE to hide. These guys and girls have my utmost respect, operating at a standard I will only ever be able to admire in astonishment.
Straight into the recovery position 😂😂😂 unbelievable commitment
Didn't know rowing was so exhausting. Nice insight.
Olympics: a
Covid-19: im gonna ruin this men whole carreer
Its honestly so sad
Any person who put so much work and dedication into a discipline deserves our respect
Weird that I put 5k on the ergo this evening for the first time in years, after having a few personal challenges, and this comes up in my RUclips.
Your pocket has ears.
Your phone tracks you in ways you can’t imagine
That tortuous experience where you have no control over your limbs is something a person never forgets. I also remember times going in and out of consciousness but kept going just out of muscle and training memory. And there is nothing like being in a boat of 4 or 8 people where you might not be the fittest guy in the boat but you do not want to be the reason why your boat loses so you're trying so summon the demons from within to help you keep up with or push harder than the team. So grueling. And when you cross the finish line I don't remember every being as happy about winning as much as knowing that the torture would soon stop (but never immediately stops)
Yeah after my first 1st place finished I couldn't stop crying. The feeling of months of work paying off, and seeing my coach jumping up and down on the dock. Couldn't even take a full breath but was sobbing like a baby. And I could never imagine missing the opportunity of missing a metal, coming back to your home country that had the hope and belief that you would metal, and returning with nothing. Haunting is a good word to describe it.
This aged well
The real sad part is that all his family want is his time. They don't want a medal.
I think you will find they want him to be happy and not his time.
His time is well used!
@@TELEVISIBLE Of course.
very alpha profile picture, how do I achieve that facial hair?
@@commentconnoisseur1001 I found that 5 sets of 10 second static hold rack pulls above the knee help pool blood and nutrients to the head forcing the follicles through the facial pores. At least that's what worked for me, you may be different.
Noooooo way I could do that sport. It can’t be fun with the physical demands required.
john doe sometimes it can be
Just try it
Ben Niemi I could see it being fun casually or at a moderately competitive level but not at any high level. Look painful af.
Rowing isn’t about having fun. It’s about being the best. It gets under your skin and prays on every insecurity.
Thaddeus Howe I’m a rower and I disagree
@5:30 “It’s a million *dollar* question.” Is that a common expression in the UK? Or do people say *pounds* like I would have expected?
Alex R it’s just a generic question, nations currency doesn’t come into it.
Thanks! TIL
Yeah, hear it quite a lot. I think it's because it just rolls off the tongue better.
It's a specific 'who wants to be a Millionaire? ' reference so the currency stays the same
beeverinc we have that show in the UK though. Lol.
Everyday I go to gym I see a 73 year old man rowing more then 3k meters everyday
3k isn't a lot, 1month and you'd be able to do it : p its hard to perform say sub 7minutes on 2k
@@aurelianspodarec2629 He’s 73 ya clown
@@nathanaellogan775 doesn't matter lol why do you think 73 matters?

Goodbye lower back, you will be missed.
Yeh that’s called bad technique otherwise you should be right, see I had bad technique when I started four months ago and just found out I have had a bulging L5 the whole tim
Me walking to the mailbox 1:26
This comment actually made me laugh out loud!
Great to see the determination and sacrifice our sportsmen and women are giving behind the scenes. Couldn't imagine any better honour that putting on the GB kit and bringing some silverwear home. Amazing
Good too see my underrated sport on this platform :)) congrats to the guys
Did they teach you how to steer?
Oh dam wow
More of this sort of thing! So much respect for these lads!
Imagine training so hard and then coronavirus strikes UK like category 9 hurricane.
I live at 656 feet above sea level. I flew to Denver and hiked up to Emerald Lake in the Rockys @ over 10,000 ft above sea level. Long story short I was convinced that I was literally dying at one point. I can't imagine training at that altitude.
“Steve Redgrave, Matthew Pinsent and James Cracknell...”
Did the forget about Tim Foster?
think the implication was that they would see them at media events, whereas Tim Foster didn't into media and became a rowing coach.
I’ve swam nationally and boxed at an amateur level for a couple years now. Nothing comes close to the intensity of rowing.
and i thought my rowing instructors were cruel hahaha
What resistance setting are those concepts on? I can't see through my cataracts! 😎
Alan O'Rourke GB test drag factor is 138
@@TheBoarder360 great! Thanks a lot :)
30 years ago i did this to maybe join the german Team. Still feeling the pain while watching these pictures. I fell of the Concept II with cramps all over my body. But it has been the best years of my youth. Okay missing the schooltrip to prague. Every day 4 hours of Training. Sitting in the boat in the middle of a snow storm. Who cares :)
white toast? in this day and age of nutrition science
Guy on a thumbnail looks like Michael Schumacher
It's uncanny.
Rowing and cycling are the most disgusting and suffering sports I think
Martial arts? Similar training to this but taking punishment as well.
DonaldMcRonald McSwallowed it’s a different form of suffering.
Pushing out energy so fast that you feel like your heart is exploding and your lungs are in a vacuum, and every muscle is on fire voluntarily is very difficult to do.
Track and field is hard like the 400m you’re running the all track as fast as you can you’re legs give up on you
Swimming too, same suffering while holding ur breath
DonaldMcRonald McSwallowed i can tell youve never had to push yourself while rowing or erging, because if you dont think you take punishment from it you’re completely wrong
For fucks sake PAY THESE MEN and pay them well. They sacrifice so much.
These guy are amazing athletes and seem like lovely people! AND ALSO THEY’RE EFFING GORGEOUS.
Rowwing is such a shitty sport I wish I never did it
grrrr... that was better than porn.
Take it easy
Looks like continued torture
I friggin hate ergs... for many years. I don't know why I've been doing 10kms lately. Maybe too lazy to run.
Congratulations! You did it!
now get a cricket player to do it
Well looks like 2020 isn’t happening
and then there had been covid
The absolute state of British Rowing
Did you really post this comment the moment I checked?
@@Jinanwoys monke think similar, monke strong together
The people who think rowing isn’t a sport or it’s easy is sadly sadly sadly sadly sadly mistaken. We suffer. And that’s on erg pieces, sweat, blood, and so so so many tears.
never thought rowers are such elite athlethes, thank you for the insight
"Suffocating..." is about the best description of intense rowing.
I wasn't really an avid rower, I'd row once a week from when I was 13 until I was 16-17. I remember getting a 7:30 for a 2km when I was 15. I was pretty pleased, considering I only rowed a few km each week. I miss the cold, the rain and the burn. It was hell but you felt better once you finished.
It will be worth it in the end..🎗🎯
You guys are inspirational.🙂
just did buy a concept2 , best choice ever..
When did Michael Schumacher start rowing?
When he realised skiing wasn’t for him
@@user-dq2zv6rc1g brooo...
not a fan of these techniques... creating an emotional burden on the athletes is never a good or reliable way to go.
it's much better to create a sense of stability and constance.
watch germany's drills to understand.
4.42 - career in criminal snitch voice over is waiting!
It's more intense than NFL . i never saw a man crying doing training. You guys are FIRE
R u joking 🤣🤣 nfl is gardening compared to rowing
How can you push your body beyond it's physical limits? If you push your body to a point you tought not possible, it only means you didn't knew what your body was capable of. Trust me, your body can handle a LOT.
XXLRebel this training is artificially boosting performance in natural conditions this isn’t possible
XXLRebel stop trying to act smart
Your brain tells you to stop long before you actually stop. It's fighting that they're referring to
Obviously it can. Your body can also die, trust me.
XXLRebel like to see you try a 10k row as hard as you can bitch
Rowing training is worse than swimming or running. Its so singular.
1:26 - 1:44 me after running 50m to catch a train
Watching this got quite emotional. Inspirational. Positive that GB public would appreciated more like this, to help us understand what the team and each sport’s competitors put themselves through to go for their prize.
I appreciate a bit more stoicism myself.
Do rowers do any weights or is the training 100% rowing?
Yes, you have to do loads of weight training as well. Rowing is equally endurance and strength. Mainly, rowers focus on compound movements such as squatting, deadlifting. Rowers are very strong athletes because you need to have loads of strength with as little muscles as possible to have a good strength and weight ratio. I've seen 80kg rowers lift a 160kg deadlift for 10x reps, no problem, but being quite small. So yeah you need to be very strong and be able to use that strength for a very long time. Imagine deadlifting for straight 6-7minutes nonstop.
I wanna see a clip of Courtney Tulloch's training, that would be awesome
All the rowers in the comments 🤤
Does rowing slim your thighs?
What about .Tim Foster. Probably the best technically.
What's a good time to row 2k on a concept 2
Nate 85 depends on your body and fitness
In high school the goal was sub 7 minutes as a lightweight, now in college its the mid to low 6
5.35 is a solid time
Wow that's good pace. I guess most of these guys are big units then
You know the indentured servents that helped row boats around the world? This is them now. Feel old yet?
04:55 R9 haircut 🇧🇷
Gotta love it
I really wonder why people make fun of me for rowing
Good luck lads! I joined the sports giants campaign in 2007 for the 2012 London games. 4800 applied and I did well enough to get down to the final 12 of some sort of upright canoeing but never went further than that. Really enjoyed the rowing though.
Intense Olympic training?
Perfect time for an interview.
British guys are hot
1:49 damn so true
Imagine doing all this including the extra year cause COVID and still not win
This aged well
Rowers push themselves that hard that often in races the capillaries in their eye balls can burst and make their eyes go bloodshot.
yea the exhaustion from max effort in rowing is unlike anything else
Last 200m of a 2k is feeling you have to quit but cant.
wow... rowing seems miserable lol
It can be but it can also be the best thing. I've seen some incredible sunrises and sunsets on the river. And it brings you close to your teammates like nothing else I've ever seen.
8000 calories ?
Why take an interview right after such an intense workout. Doesnt make any sense whatsoever to me really. People are to tired and therefore emotionally instable. Cheap crying shots
Rubèn Plantinga cheap shots? Ain’t nothing wrong with a good cry, bruv
@@danieljohnson2046 crying sells obviously. Thats why they film it when they are complete physically and emotionally drained after such an intense workout. Its cheap by the makers
Theyre all incredible. Such respect for these athletes!
You can only do this level of training on a team.
Speechless.....
And all the coaches are fat and lazy, I don't understand this sport at all.
Most coaches still train, all my coaches trained while I was their trainee. Not with us but they'd still row and do weights and cycle and stuff in their own time. Rather then seeing them as fat and lazy think of it more as old and experienced
@@davidfoley1204 How about experienced, fat and lazy? They are most definitely not old yet.
And not a shred of fun was had
Not at this training camp. But that doesn't mean that in general they don't enjoy their sport.
8000cals a day and still looking lean 😂
Wow! So many good looking lads!
Boys got absolutely pumped by NZL, forget the mountains next time
I don't really understanding rowing, so forgive me. But what impact does the drag setting have and how are you supposed to know which level to use?
ItsLloydM8 It’s meant to simulate the drag in a boat on the water due to factors like weight. The higher the drag factor, the more resistance there is, but the lower splits you pull. GB Rowing tests are 138, my high school did 112-120.
@@APerson-co7er Thanks for the reply. So as someone starting out rowing as a beginner, how do I know which level to use for my workouts?
