Is it possible for me to get under 7mins for my 2000m time for rowing?

Question

My 2k time is pretty sh*t : 7:47 mins considering iam 16 now and have been rowing for 3 years...

Ive been training for 6 weeks now - swimming (10 -20 laps a day), progessive weight lifting, cycling 20mins and short ergo sessions.

Is it possible for me to achieve a time below 7mins by next year, 2009?

If not what should i do to achive it?

Answer 1

Yes, work your ar*e off and you can do it, i've got faith in you my friend!  

Answer 2

It is definitely possible, just keep working hard!

Make sure you are rowing with proper form and ask your coach for advice as well. Stay focused and confident and try rowing with a buddy next to you so you are motivated to beat someone else.

Also make sure you have a pretty good rating for a 2k and are not "flying and dying."
