    @captainfantastic94. From: http://www.mh.co.za/fitness/mhfit-test-1000m-row/

    Level 1 – > 4:21 min
    Level 2 – 4:11-4:20
    Level 3 – 4:01-4:10
    Level 4 – 3:51-4:00
    Level 5 – 3:41-3:50
    Level 6 – 3:31-3:40
    Level 7 – 3:21-3:30
    Level 8 – 3:11-3:20
    Level 9 – 3:01-3:10
    Level 10 – < 3:00 min

    Apparently technique plays a BIG part. Height, stroke length, power and cadence are all important.

    Don't worry about others times and what is good and bad. Just work on improving your technique and your times.

    I'd probably be round 6:00 to do what you did in 4:40. I don't row (or even go to a gym).

    Exercise: yes
    Calories: yes
    Tracking: yes

    I was able to do my morning workout, snuck in a short walk at lunch and had to help unload hay wagons in the evening. Haven't done that in 20+ years. Good upper body and cardio workout there. Staying within my calories is always a challenge for me as I love food! I would eat so much better if I could have a personal chef and not have to make my own food. I do not enjoy planning what I eat or making it. If someone would just make healthy food for me and stock my fridge, I would be better off.
