300m intervals

1:3 work to rest ratio

how ever long it takes to complete 300 meters, take 3 times that amount for the rest.



Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.

right that's what I originally thought but then I got thinking that there was too much recovery time as I wanted it to be an intense session which lasts approx 15 mins.

what would u guys think if I did 300m sprints with a 1 :1 ratio?

it should take you under 60sec to row 300m.

1:1 work to rest is really difficult.

you are better off starting with higher rest and working up over weeks. you have to give yourself some place to progress too.

I just wanted to say that I think rowing is awesome. A very underutilized method of getting the heart rate up, but highly effective.
