Whoa, one of the gods of the single scull, Xeno Mueller, gold medalist in the 1996 Olympic games is in the comments of my erg blogging post.
I actually met him, for about a minute, at the boathouse at Newport Beach, California when I was rowing out of there in the winter of 2003-2004. He runs an erg training service out of a Costa Mesa storefront and is an inspiration to a lot of indoor rowers.
His blog is here.
David,
Xeno is a good guy. We’ve been in touch about his deciding to open his fitness center to help returning veterans increase their fitness through indoor rowing. And for free!

If you’re interested, he recently posted an indoor rowing training regimen, although it’s mostly geared for competition.
