My "learn to row" program started this week and holy cow what a fantastic workout. Before we even get on the water it's 8 of us carrying a 200 lb boat up and off of racks, overhead, on shoulders, carry to the docks, putting it in the water. It's a tightly choreographed system from start to finish. I love it. And the rowing is amazing. I was in a funk after a stressful day at work yesterday but an hour later I was on a team rowing down the river with geese flying overhead and I was like... what was I upset about before? Not a clue. Then after rowing it's the same in reverse, lift the boat up our of water, pull overhead, down to shoulders, walk it up to the boathouse. My shoulders are pretty bruised up from it but I'm taking those bruises as swagger
