Well I have been rowing for a little over a year now. Its by far the best sport I have ever done. Whether actually rowing in a boat or doing an erg piece (the erg is a indoor rowing machine) its a very good workout. Its the only sport that really works your entire body. I practice 6 days a week. Does anyone else here row?? If so whats ur erg times.

For those of you who think I'm talking about a row boat or something heres a pic:

Wouldn't it be a bit difficult to pass people when you are that close?

And where's the drafting and high speed collisions?

A good friend of mine who was the cox for the Creighton U girls crew. And while I won't say that its the ONLY sport that works your entire body, it is very strenuous.

Well I acutally just got that picture off the net. My team rows in big lakes. In the fall season we row head races which are sort of like rally races in that each boat starts 30 seconds apart. In the spring we run 2k 'sprints' which are essentially 6 lane drag races.

This is an athletic sport FYI... however I've seen a few collisions and some boats flip before.
