Polarized Rowing Training
Polarized rowing training emphasizes easy steady meters plus a small share of hard intervals, limiting moderate gray-zone volume on the erg.
Polarized rowing training keeps most weekly meters easy—conversational steady state—and reserves a small fraction for true hard intervals, minimizing moderate “gray zone” hours that stall recovery. Easy rows should feel genuinely light; hard days are discrete.
It mirrors eighty-twenty endurance principles applied to the erg.
