Re: what training have free spirits been doing today?
So a couple of weeks ago I decided to see how a little rowing would feel. I was able to get to about 8 or 9 minutes of slow rowing; though rowing itself was fine and my back held out, I felt tight and sore a few hours later so decided to give it another week or two of rest.
