  1. Loved what you said! Awesome advice especially about the Everest guy! Thank you. I am doing it to gain strength. Could you advice a training rowing routine for me? I commit 15 mins daily so what should the workout be like? Thanks!

  2. Thanks for your videos. …I have only started 2 days ago and wanted to check if what I am doing is right. …I didn't choose a workout, I only put just rowing and did 2000 m for the first day and the second day I increased the distance to 2500 m. I felt really good after the workout and hoping to increase the distance every day. Please advise if this good is a good method to start with or not. .. Thanks again

  3. Thank you 🙂 rowing is the first work out I've actually enjoyed and wanted to do every day. Already I feel 100x better but I'm glad to have a guide to help me do it right!

  4. Thanks a lot for the motivation and your understanding towards the difficulties concerning weight loss! I've written down your instruction on rowing intervals, and I'll try it out on Tuesday next week;) I've had a decent weight loss over the last month or so (about 6kg weight loss), but I recently hit a plateau. So now I'm shifting my calorie intake to be more spread out during the day (my daily intake is about 2000kcal total distributed over 3 meals). And with this exercise as well (+gym and bicycling of course) I believe I'm on the right track;) Thanks again!

  5. One question, because you mentioned that your legs should work more. I am a 6' 3" guy, 265 lbs with around 31% fat in my body. I did basicly no workout for the past year, but my work required me to walk and kneel a lot. I noticed that when I started rowing, my back and shoulder muscles started to get tired very soon but my legs didn't even feel the load after 30 minutes. Is it possible that I do something wrong, or is it that my leg muscles developed more due to my heavy weight being carried while my arms remained weak because of no exercise? Can I somehow determine that my technique is correct even if I feel I do it right?

  6. Thank you thank you thank you. You are so genuine. I just think you're wonderful. I am on a weight loss journey and I've been on such for 1 year and 9 months. It has been so tough. I work out most of the time twice a day with two different trainers, one is a regular trainer one on one working hard with weight lifting and all types of work including conditioning workouts. My other trainer is a boxing coach and I work with him one-on-one. I am very interested in boxing conditioning since because of how good it is for the body and how strong and healthy it makes a person. I am now adding a day off to my workouts because I have learned the hard way that I need to give my body rest for recovery. I just purchased a rowing machine so I can have it in home to further my knowledge and learning of rowing. I was introduced to the rowing machine with my first trainer of the day. Someone donated a concept 2 rower to his gym and guess what? I learned how to row and my trainer uses it every day when we train as part of my circuits. I really wanted to get better at rowing technique and get stronger with the mental part of exercise and also get in top physical condition by one of the tools, the concept2 rower. I just bought a concept 2 model d rower. My trainer has agreed to help put it together with me to help me. I just wanted to tell you that you were so encouraging to me. You don't come off with any health and fitness attitude like some do, you just really are very sincere, and that means a lot to people like me. I have lost a lot of weight. I've lost well over 100 pounds just by being careful what I eat, and that is a mental battle and very tough lots of times really, daily it's a battle. I have about 120 more to lose to be completed with my weight loss. I have lofty goals and really just wanted to commend you for being so genuine in your videos and very FUNNY. 😁😁😁🐸 I was soaking to soothe my aching muscles laughing my head off at your silliness. It's refreshing to see such genuine videos and I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. I very well may reach out to you and your establishment in the future for support in my future goals with my weight loss. Thank you so much for encouraging people like me that have a long way to go yet. I have come a long way, but what you said is true; EVERY STEP of the way is very HARD. I work out Hard, and sometimes it's just so difficult to push through tough workouts, but I am NOT quitting. I will NEVER quit until I'm finished with that journey, and then I can move on with my athletic abilities to improve more and more in my physical fitness goals. Thank you again and…
    GOD BLESS YOU!!!!!😁

  7. I found this so helpful. No one ever showed me how to set the intervals. Didn't know the machine could do this. I really like your other workout when you row with us and the intervals. Thanks so much!

  8. I really enjoyed this video. Very funny and informative. I am also restarting the Stonglifts program. I want to intersperse them: lift one day row the next. Is this doable? Any help would be appreciated.

  9. I waited soooo long for that video. 🙂 Thank you very much. I'll give that workout a try and see I can a) get my rowing mojo back (lost it somewhere along the way this spring) b) use it as a kickstart to get back into better (eating, workout, …) routines. I have still ~15kg to go (already lost ~55kg). As always: Thanks Shane. 🙂

  10. I love the fun and play in this video. I have a question though: can you tell me about the “science” behind taking 8+ minutes “off” on these intervals? Even 4 off seems… kinda like a waste of time. I understand recovering for a minute or two, letting the heart rate come back down, but 8?? Can you explain why?

  11. Nice tips, again. I like the garage fitness videos. I think you forgot to disable the blurring after the street scene, blurred nose! Some good comedy elements too haha.
    Also – unfortunately – you can't outrun/outrow a bad diet. Diet is 80% of losing weight – I know from experience…
