Well, he's not wrong, though neither are you I guess.

The rowing is fucking awesome though. I thought my legs were fairly strong before I used the rower and it just destroyed my quads.

im on the SDSU mens crew, I hate the erg but its a good workout.
1:50 split for 6k
1:30 split for 500m

Good start bro, keep going. Remember get the miles in, improving technique makes up for getting tired on the long haul.

I've been doing the rowing machine for the past week and I think I'm hooked. I like that I'm getting some upper body work in, and it's much easier to do intervals on it compared to a treadmill. For someone who hates running like I do, it's a great alternative.

Checks out. Good thread op

This. And specifically this exercise that puts constant strain in your back.
I hope time will give you more experience, OP.
