Update: this series has ended. I think there will be no more personal workouts on this blog. Thanks for your support for this project

THIS IS A SERIES! I STARTED WITH 10 MINUTES ROWING AND I WILL ADD 5 MINUTES EVERY TIME!
How long will I endure this?

[I'll always update this post as soon as I took a picture of my current workout]

For the newbies After a long run in the Netherlands I was injured and I thought of doing another sport instead, to give my feet a break.

Indoor Rowing seemed to be ideal for this. You use almost every muscle, but your feet rest at the same place all the time.

After my first workout I thought it would be cool to increase the total time slowly. Because I was (or am) very unexperienced I chose 5 minutes. Starting with 10 minutes. Back then I was really exhausted after 10 minutes.

Now it has become something like an addiction. Hard to stop if you are posting your workouts on the Internet. Try it

Every workout I made and will make in this series will be shown on this page. So if I’m not able to manage my next goal (+5 minutes compared to the last workout) I will stop this series.
