Mental Preparation for 2000m Erg Test

Hello RUclipsrs! One of the biggest asked about subjects is not how do I get faster physically for say a 2k row but more how do I deal mentally with the stress of a 2k. Today I go over some tips to prepare mentally for a 2k row. Hopefully you can do some visualisation and perhaps some planning to really improve your scores!

Absolutely spot on. Defo going to do some visualisation for my 2km next month. I think there’s also that fear of not hitting your goal and so over coming self doubt and believing in yourself and your training too. 💪🏼💪🏼

[@Lil.loves2row]

Thank you so much! I'm going to a 2k ergothon tomorrow and my dream university is going to be there. Also dealing with the mental block of trying to break 8 as a sophomore in HS. Im currently at 8:06 but im 100% going to visualize and keep a positive outlook!!! ❤🎉

Could you talk about 1000m ?

[@jimbolt872]

For a masters rower like me, 1000m is the big issue. Thanks for mentioning it.
