Five Reasons for Triathletes to Join In On National Learn to Row Day

Rowing is quickly becoming the go-to workout for cross training and triathletes are taking notice. Few sports target more muscles in less time.

In celebration of National Learn to Row Day (June 4, 2022), Hydrow Strength and Conditioning Coach Peter Donohoe, two-time Olympian and former track and field star, explains the top five reasons you should take up rowing.
