Rowing is the toughest sport out there. A 2,000 meter race takes up as much effort and will and strength as 2 back to back football games and it only takes 6-7 mins. Next time you think your sport is hard, the athletes wake up at 4am sometimes to go to practice. In the winter they don’t get a break from rowing, no they erg (rowing machine) almost every day and do weights when they aren’t erging. Rowing not only takes extreme strength but also mental toughness to pull through even when your body is screaming at you. To increase your speed and lower your split instead of stopping when you have 250m left.

Rowing is a sport that originated in Europe. It has a strong following in Europe and only a moderate following in the United States. In the U.S. it is mainly a high school and collegiate sport. It is a very difficult, yet also very rewarding sport. That not only pushes the body, but also requires a lot of skill and know-how.
UConn has a sweet men's crew team. Yes, UConn has teams other then basketball. Check out the UConn crew team and learn more about rowing at www.ucmenscrew.com

"Rowing"
the sport that never ends.
This sport in particular is a very time consuming one of which it will take up most of your week and free time. There are many different kinds of rowing,
The Eight: is when 8 men weilding single oars take control of a stern or bow side position in a coxin steered boat.
The Four: is when you only have four men driving the boat.
The Single Scull: A one manned boat requiring complete concentration with two oars one for each hand.
Regattas are the special occasions when the rowers congregate to a single location to row against each other for the worst 5 minutes of their life.
One training technique for the rowers is the Erg (Ergometer for long). This metal contraption evolved from the ancient torture devices of which the enemy would remove all skin from the victims hands and force them to row two thousand kilometers resulting in death.
It is believed that the Vikings were one of the many historical cultures of whom would row regularly through storms and oceans driving them bloodthirsty and ready to pillage the first town they would come accross.
