Rowing SUCKS. This is what rowing makes me feel like:

Rowing is hard, but you gotta give credit where credit is due: Rowers are animals! Rowers are pure, heathen beasts of old that thrive on pain in the lower extremities & cottonmouth. It boggles my mind when I think about people rowing competitively or worse... for FUN!

To me rowing is the ahtletic equivalent of a football to the groin:



This was an intense workout, so intense that I even fell off the seat on my 6th or 7th foray. (Don't worry, the only injury I suffered was a bruised ego. I mean Coach had to literally pick me up & put me back on my seat, and I'm glad that everyone got a good laugh @ 5:30 in the morning you know?) But here's the thing - I like to think that I was generating SO much torque that the seat simply threw it's hands up, quit and said: "I'M OUT!!!" Chances are though that me falling out of my seat confirms that I have no gluteal musculature to speak of - and that saddens me ever so slightly.

Only slightly though.
