In 30 minutes of row time, at 10/16 resistance

I've overcome the back pain and am becoming truly monstrous. I sprinted the last 5 minutes at like 52 strokes per minute. I sounded like a human freight train.

My shoulders are becoming boulders and I can make my chest dance. I've had friends comment on how they can see my biceps across the room. I am becoming one of antifas greatest super soldiers. My pronouns will soon be he/himbo

All it took was getting a rowing machine and using it for like 1-2 hours a day (doing stuff is hard I have to take a lot of breaks to smoke weed u_u) almost every day between December and now while explicitly ignoring advice to not do that. Tbh you should probably alternate rowing and running, I'm built different, sweaty

I should probably exercise less tbh it's hard to keep my weight ~170 without a lot of extra protein but my brain broke and I'm addicted to the row zone

    What's your pace? I can maintain a pace of 200m/min at 8/10 resistance (~24 rpm) for 30 minutes. I try to do that 3 times per week.

    Sounds like you're doing lighter, faster strokes and I'm curious about the pros/cons of each approach.

      Rower doesn't tell me all that, it says 3.91mi which would be almost 210m/min, 10/16 does not feel like a light resistance but idk dawg
