Anyone who has raced in a rowing shell or pulled a 2000m test on the ergo understands that, at its most fundamental level, the sport of rowing can feel like an intimate relationship with pain. Although there are some fortunate – or crazy enough - to enjoy the discomfort, most don’t particularly like it, everyone, however, respects it.
