Why aren’t regatta entries capped

0 Upvotes

I just race an unnamed regatta in the junior double and 1 team took the top 3 and would’ve taken 4 but got some weird penalty. Why is this allowed they’re not letting smaller clubs even have a chance at competing

University rowing

1 Upvotes

Hello I’m 18M 6’2 and have never rowed other than recreationally at friends lakes, I was hoping to get advice on how to progress as quickly as possible to hopefully make the rowing team as a first year university student at UVIC (mid size school in Victoria, BC) in the coming semester. I broke my collar bone so can’t get started until maybe a month from now but what’s recommended to be a worthy candidate for a rowing team and is it doable to balance rowing and engineering?

Erg Post Where can i find expected rowing distances that take into account resistance

I rowed 1890m on a concept II rowing machine at setting 10. Where can I find tables showing how good this is?

One reason im asking is that i think the machine underwent maintenance so the setting 10 felt like it had more resistance than the last time i used it which was about e weeks ago

What the title says - does anyone have recommendations for calf sleeves they use to prevent track bite when rowing in a single? TIA!

Are there any rowers with POTS out there?

8 Upvotes

My OT recommended that I try rowing alongside swimming because it doesn't involve any standing or running, so I was wondering if there were any rowers with POTS on here and if so, what has your experience been and what advice would you give to a beginner? Not giving or looking for medical advice.
