CB (me)

New PB after six years

Six years stuck on the same personal best. Consistent, targeted training finally broke it.

Sub-7:30 goal → 6:28

Wanted to break 7:30 and laughed when I said we'd look at sub-7. Medalled at the British Indoors with a 6:28.

2k: 7:01 → 6:42

Came over from running and chased rowing-machine world records. Set several in the 40+ category.

Sub-7 and off to Princeton

Worked together to get under 7:30 for university recruiting, then kept going to sub-7.

Zero to rowing at 55

Wanted to start safely. Now on the water and erging several times a week. His doctor asked how he's so fit.

What it actually looks like

Your week, in the app, every week.

Starts from where you are
Your testing and history set the starting point, so the training fits you, not the average rower.
Every session tells the plan something
Log your splits, heart rate and how it felt. That feedback shapes what comes next.
Built round your week
Tell it what's fixed and the sessions land where they fit.
Re-test and move on
Regular test pieces show what's working and move your training on.

What I coach

Getting faster takes more than a programme.

Fitness is one bit. Turning it into boat speed, fitting it round your life and getting it out on race day are the rest.

Your fitness

We test where you are, then train what actually needs improving. Not what everyone else is doing.

Your technique

Video reviews pick out the one or two changes that make the biggest difference, so fitness shows up as speed.

Your structure

Erg, water, weights and rest planned together around the time you've actually got.

Your race day

Pacing, prep and what to think when it hurts. So the work turns into a result.

The support around your training

Who it suits

You don't need someone checking in every week

Is there more?

Core gets you the plan. Coached gets you the coach.

Plenty of people do brilliantly on Core. But if you've ever wished you could ask someone why a session felt rubbish, or what to change after a bad test, that's what Coached is for.
