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

    For the sake of balance I would recommend that you throw some pushups in there. Maybe 3 sets of 15-20 per rowing workout?

    I think that most people have no concept of the depth of recovery and acclimatization the human body is really capable. Don't be afraid to push it, AS LONG AS IT STILL FEELS GOOD. If you feel pain developing, take time off. It's better to miss a workout here and there instead of missing a month because you got tendonitis/a shoulder injury/a back injury.
