I would make sure someone checks your technique out. My physio is of the opinion that rowers should be banned unless users have been shown proper technique. My observations at gyms are that very few have the right technique, there are those on here better qualified than me, but rowing should have three distinct phases, legs, back, arms and then reverse in recovery.

Funny u should say that cos a friend of mine ( a dr) has just had surgery on a torn Labrum from rowing.

I think my technique is reasonable tbh

2:16/500m at 31spm from someone with height of 6'2 and a huge ape index is either:

- Poor technique
- Machine so poorly maintained it is effectively unusable
- Both of the above

Gt to gym, left wallet at home. ( not a gym member so pay £6 a go.

Went for a run instead

Average HR 168.

Undulating ish route.

Then met scibby for lunch - undid all my work by having bangers and mash, two coffes, an OJ and a little bit of chocolate brownie and tiny bit of ice cream.
