The following link explains where your damper should be coming from an olympic rowing champion LINK

**This assume a concept2 rower. Long story short, max resistence isn't optimal for 99% of people on a rower

I have gotten faster, but my recovery period between reps seems longer.


If you push yourself harder, your recovery period is longer. If you sprint 400meters or jogged 400 meters, which one would require a longer break before sprinting a second 400meters?

Which is better, faster pulls or shorter recovery? Goal is weight loss and cardio fitness.


Long distance rowing is the best for both of these. Start rowing 5-10ks. No shame in breaking them up into 1-2ks with a break so your butt doesn't get sore from the sitting
