Sucky. First half I felt strong and smooth, averaged in the mid 300s, but I lost the stroke. Got it back late.
Great job late night Dawgs! You guys friggin rocked! Good luck today.
Boy and I'll tell you what, that Camille Leblanc-Bazinet is my type of lady!!!!

David, I couldn't agree more on Camille! I said they same to Geoff watching her at the regionals.

ReplyDeleteBrent, I know you can find a rower down there in Carson.

ReplyDelete(3:50 Row Time)
I'm curious about the physics:
I would have needed to average 314 Watts to achieve a 2.0 ratio, which would have been a 37% greater average power output. That would imply to me a time of 3:50 / 1.37 = 2:48, which obviously is never going to happen.
I suspect that there is not a linear relationship between average power and row time (i.e., that doubling power does not halve row time). Is that correct, and if so, what/where is the optimal power output?
Dave and Trevor, you're not alone - I watched last night with a mix of males and females, and I can safely say that Camille is everyone's type of lady...

Old Dawg Hari,
I think you are correct, power output on the rower is not linear. At some point you have to row a shit ton harder for minimal gains in time. DH posts here now and could elaborate in more detail, he is wicked smart.
DH help us out here.
My word is ranith. As in "Camille ranith away with Dave X and Trevor hearts"

Took a long time to recover from that. Put 100% in. Pretty happy with score, considering that my legs were so sore this morning that I was having problems with stairs.
Have been glued to the live webcast..totally skipped out on work yesterday. Watching the first event yesterday was so freakin exciting. It was awesome to watch all of the Dawgs, especially seeing Coach rock it out with the Unbroken Tee on. Kepp giviner' Dawgs.
My heart rate was definately elevated last night during her event Paul.

ReplyDeleteOld Dawg Hari,
You and Paul are both right, the relationship between watts and time/distance (pace) is not linear. In fact, if you're curious, the equation to determine watt output for a particular pace is as follows:
Power (Watts) = 2.8/(time in seconds/distance in meters)^3
So for a given distance, the watts basically end up being related to time by a power of 3. That translates into having to row increasingly harder to get the same change in time the faster you go.
As far as optimal power output, I don't know the answer to that question - sorry....

Not a PR on time (1.2 seconds off). Last PR I went out too hard and flamed out, so this time I tried to pace and have negative splits. Paced too much and couldn't drop enough at the end.
Pissed b/c I felt like I still had some in me, but pleased that I was this close to my PR and felt like I still had energy.
Next time I'm just going to try to hold a 1:35 and not worry about flaming out.

DH,
ReplyDeleteThank you!
The equation is clearly correct.
And now I realize the problem with my initial thinking: Doubling the horsepower of a car doesn't double its speed, because of friction.
(On the other hand, doubling the power output during, say, "Fran" will halve the time.)
There is no optimal power output, per se, since more power will always result in a faster time.
However, this does raise an important point for WOD's involving rows. It takes double the power to go from a 4:00 1K row to a 3:10 1K row. The question is whether doubling the power output to cut 50 seconds is a worthwhile tradeoff, if subsequent exercises involve linear power.
Consider the WOD from the 2007 Games:
Row 1K
5 Rounds: 25 pull-ups, 7 135-lb push presses.
It seems to me that it would be suicide to row a 3:10, instead of say, a 3:30. The power needed to cut 20 seconds off the row, could be much more effectively applied in the subsequent exercises.
This of course is confirming what many people have already observed.
