"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.

No timeouts...
No halftime...
Just 2000 meters of adrenaline pumping,
lung busting, pain.

A sport in which 1 to 8 people sit on a seat going backwards while most likely being steered by a coxswain. Rowing also called crew, is one of the most physically demanding sports ever created working every major muscle group in your body. People on the same crew team typically become like family because of the constant travel to regattas to race.

The most shit and painful sport i have ever encountered. Never take it up.

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.

Not a sport
a Pointless hobbie that no1 likes

Rowing is not a sport, but a pastime for pretentious people who are insufferable to be around when they are talking about their so called "sport."
