Default concept 2 rower

I've been doing a little rowing recently.

I've been dealing with illness, so my fitness has been way down.

I'm mostly fast-twitch so running long distances has never been a joy for me.

5 minutes for me on the rower is forever. I did it recently for 5min at average 170 watts. I know that that isn't too great, based on the fact of my poor fitness and inexperience on the rower. So I look up what olympic type rowers can do. they average just under 500watts for a 2000 meter course.

Wow. Looks like I have a ways to go before making the olympic team.
