#yamsquad #rowing
At the ripe old age of 76 I took up the cudgels and trained for several months gradually increasing the distances from a mere half marathon, full`marathon then a couple of 50K's before I attempted the Century. Obviously I required the permission of my local gym, as I would be using the erg for most of the day, which they kindly granted.
I used a folded towel, Concept sponge seat and best of all, the secret ingredient, Bum Butter. Bikers would all be aware of this creamy saviour.
Fuel, hydration and toilet breaks were going to be very important if I was to complete the challenge.
I looked on the Concept site and discovered the Century hadn't been completed in my age/weight group for more than twenty years.
Clearly there were good reasons for this!
However, I completed the task in 8 hours, 57 mins, which included stopping for 34 mins.
I felt ok at 40K, when I stopped for a toilet break, plus fuel, but at 75K I felt done for. However your efforts inspired me to continue and I pulled in hard for the last 2k at the wondrous split of 2.10.LOL
Would I do it again, possibly next year, if I am still alive.
Wow!! So what was your time?
@@mrsheepy4503 8.57.00.3. plan to do it again, if the gym gives me permission and I am still alive.
Your neighbours must think you’re crazy😂
W.o.w. Captain Buchan, you made 100k in a day look easy! Syncing your 💯 to to C2 logbook World ERG challenge will push the Yamsquad over 16 million metres in just over 8 days!! On track for 60million!! The pandemic lock down has opened up an opportunity for some that we wouldn't have had. 📈➕ 💪👍.
It is relatively easy when staying in the right zones!! Becomes a mental battle after a while! 😂 The yamsquad are doing big things on the challenge! Hopefully something that won't be out done in a long time! #yamsquad
I just achieved this century 100,000 meter challenge yesterday. One of the most physically demanding things I’ve ever done.
Well done! 200k next!
Getting that social isolation grind in
Only one way to go!
Cam! What a day! I’ve been viewing for a long time, but this is the first time I’ve been compelled to comment: you are a beast! You’ve certainly earned some Ben and Jerry’s. Planning a half marathon in your honour. Love your work!!
Thanks for the story Michael! Good luck with your half marathon! #yamsquad
This is fantastic content, Cam. Love it
oosh 100km done that's insane mate great job! :)
Thanks Albert! #yamsquad
Would you consider doing an erg-thoughts on the likely postponement of the Olympics and perhaps what the implications might be of this with regards team selection and if it might shift your goals potentially? Massive effort today, I wouldn’t be able to walk after that!
Definitely going to be doing that soon! Today though, mobility! #yamsquad
Nice setup you have there! Really low avg HR for your four pieces, will definitely - not- be trying anything similar soon 😆 the Yamsquad-train keeps going, choo-choo!
Loves this man keep it up 🙌🙌
will you get another chance to make the Tokyo boat now that the Olympics are delayed?
Very good point! Guess that's for future yamsquad to look forward to!
A Ceiling fan is great for dogs - Mine loves sitting under it on the bed in the summer - it doesn't take much to keep them cool as long as the air is moving around a bit.
Your insane 1:57 for 100 minutes
that is a very aesthetically pleasing set up
Makes a difference to row in!
I'm surprised your watch indicated only 1000 calories burned on the first 25km (likely closer to 1600) I don't think heart rate is a reliable indicator of calories burned. 120 HR for your first 25km just shows how fit you are, and doesn't measure how much work you did or how much energy was required to do that work. I suspect your watch algorithm really underestimated your calories burned because it's likely based on some data that contains averages in which most people with a HR of 120 can only burn about 600 calories/hour (something like that). It was more accurate for your last 3 sessions because your HR was closer to data averages, though I suspect for your size, it was still an underestimate. Just my suspicion.
I too was surprised. It'd be interesting to know how far off it is. Don't worry though I ate more than what was said by the watch!
Also, the variables like cardiac output and being seated come into play. Cam is a beast so his heart is able to deliver tons of oxygen per beat.
I'm no cardiophysiologist but I bet if we knew his VO2 max we could better estimate caloric burn.

Who did it? smh...
Absolute mad man I did 1/10 of that today
All the metres count! #yamsquad
Apologies brother for missing out on the finish, my ass hurt a lot after! 🙏 Been sitting on the ergo all day testing...
So did I! 😂
Mad boy
You come under the category of "amazing dude".
Just having fun! #yamsquad
100k metres, crazy volume.....
Must be as hard as Paris-Roubaix-Paris on the road bike in 24 hours.
Definitely not! 😂
Then I‘am gonna try it. KR, Fred.
Imagine the noise complaints for 6 hours of erging
Music to the yamsquad ears!
Cam I have a question..
The largest problem I have with long rowing sessions is that my ass hurts like hell. I'm sure u must have some tricks to get through this and I'd appreciate your advice.
Bubble wrap wrapped in a towel. Forks like a charm 👌😎
Also doing more long ergs makes it not hurt... or hurts less
I use a gardeners kneeling pad trimmed down to the seat width and place a clean microfiber cloth on it each time which can then go in the washing machine. A pack of 36 cloths was quite cheap from costco.
1. do it more often
2. use supplementary exercises to strengthen your glutes and hammies, focus on improving your range of motion
3. seat pad or towel
4. once you hit the wall, force yourself to stick to the splits and the pain will go a bit away
Use a small cushion
Da Boi Gone Cray!
Solid work yesterday!🍠 Out of curiosity, have you tested with supplements like creatine and beta-alanine in the past/currently? If so, what’s your opinion on these and do you have any other supplement recommendations? Thanks Cam
Thanks for the row-along Cam. Sorry not to make it to the end. My wife had an urgent request for fish and chips (with curry sauce). Could be the last for a while.
insane
A god among men.
Tank
Damn, maybe I shoild give this a go. Only ever done 66k in a day.
Make sure you have enough fuel!! #yamsquad
How do I add my metres to yam squad metres?
If you head to log.concept2.com/team/12882/wec/2020 and join the team after making an account then join the challenge. Then add your metres to the log!
Crazy!!
#yamsquad OMG
Do you have any advice for technique? I feel like I dip my hands/ arms too much on the erg, do you have any tips for that? If you have any videos demonstrating my Instagram is @estherfollis. Would love some advice
Will be looking at making more technique videos going forward! If you feel like you're dipping your hands, try to feel the pressure underneath when you approach the catch!
Wow, 100k?! That’s awesome! Would love to work my way up to that amount! Nice job! Wondering though, while I’m doing more steady state erg sessions during this time, I’m worried about losing muscle. Do you happen to know what the heart rate should be kept at to avoid burning muscle during long cardio sessions?
Unfortunately ut2 mileage will be burning fat and muscle! low rate high intensity will help with the muscle building though! #yamsquad
What an impressive accomplishment. Cam - do you typically do your steady state at 20spm or 18? Do you see a difference in training benefit from the different rates?
I usually go closer to the 20. Some say lower is better some say higher! Definitely up for debate!
@@CameronBuchan Sounds good - Thank you Cam!!!
What resistance did you have on the machine? 10? Cheers!
You can see in the first shot it’s around 3-4. Made quite a few videos talking about the resistance.
How the hell can people do this?! Insane
For fitness, is it better to train at lower heart rates (140-50ish) or higher heart rates (160-70ish)? Is doing 1 hour at 170 less beneficial than 1 hour at 150?
Depends on your goals, weakness and your stats as a human being. 65% is where you gain the most aerobic benefits for the least effort. Going higher than this enters other zones, depletes energy faster and encroaches on other sessions
@@CameronBuchan so if my max heart rate is 193, should I be training at a heart rate of around 125?
Due to the olympics being postponed, will there be another trials and will you change anything to try to be in a spot to get selected?
I'll be talking about that in tomorrow's video!
Good Job, What was your DF?
If you had to do 100k without stopping what would you have changed?
Thanks
I believe 125 for this day! I'd slow down that's for sure!
U r a beast
Hamish, my twin, if you want to finally beat me; this is what you need to do.
what would you say is the best food to eat before a workout
That's completely dependent on the person. Some people hate heating before a workout, some are OK! Some can eat one thing and not another. I'd say just making sure you have fuel is a big part!
Do you ever eat vegetables or fruit? Hahahh
Like I said in the video, being in isolation means not a lot of choice to eat a lot of fruit and veg yday!
Is there a reason you were using the pm3 for the first 3 workouts?
I used another erg as the other one was in use! Forgot all about that!
Faster than my current 2km split........
Whenever i row more than 10k my hands sting so much and callouses hurt so much any tips
DeityFN grip the erg less tight
There are no good tips to pain tolerance
@@brianminsk9900 yep, me too, as a rowing Dad I found getting a tiny bit more flexible, driving through the legs and core more and loosen the grip. Get the ERG data app and use stroke length to work on technique. Tekkaz and time. It's paying off for me a 50 year erg newbie. You can do it, cause I did. 👍
All has been said really! Sometimes it can be a case of gripping too hard, sometimes it's just a case of getting used to it unfortunately!
Ok thank you for your advice
14 years old kid from france did it for 6 hours and 1 min
Yeah I’d expect most to be able to go faster considering my HR was very low. A 1:48 for 6 hours is pretty impressive, regardless of age!
I found that video extremely frustrating. Instead of just showing speeded up coverage of your rowing, it would have been useful to have seen at least one session in real time, and to be able to look at the monitor at the same time. I could of least had done a row along with you, which would have been very useful to me
Thanks for the feedback. Apologies you looked for a row along but this wasn't a row along video, hence no footage to row along to. Wouldn't have been a vlog of the day with 4 hour plus workouts in it, let alone publishing/editing a daily video that length and size would be very difficult. Plenty of other row along sessions on the channel if you need one. Hopefully more to come!
Call me insane, but i also tried it. Ive done it in 5 sessions, took me 7 hours and 20 minutes...i am crazy...i had so much pain and today, the day after, it gets worse haha. I drank 7L and lost almost 3 kilograms
Awesome job! #yamsquad
Who have you rowed for?
Hey Ben! I've made a few videos discussing just this. I've rowed for Kent School USA, Northeastern Univ. USA, Leander Club UK, and the British Rowing team
ey-parthenon-ringvaartregatta.nl/index.php/en/ the race for you!
What do you usually lay out your 90 minutes to be?
What do you mean?
Cameron Buchan I remember you mentioning in a few vlogs that you split your 90 minutes into segments of 40 minutes and so on. But I cant remember the exact structure?
The one with varying heart rates for each interval. I did it once and it went well for me but i did not write it down. Also just as a general question do you usually follow that for your workouts like when you did this 100K or do you keep it consistent at the average?
@@haileymercuri1785 you can see the splits through the video that its very steady throughout. The splitting the 90 minutes up is a totally different workout and don't think I found do 4 of those!! I have a row along of interval workout on the chanel!
Utter madness.
The thought of doing 10k fills me with dread
What the hell is yamsquad?? Bit late to the party sorry
The yamsquad is the group behind this channel. The support network for anyone who needs it! #yamsquad
125k challenge.
Only one way to go!
@@CameronBuchan lick the stamp and send it first class haha
why
Too much focus on «like subscribe & merch».
Thanks for the feedback! I thought a couple of mins out of 23 was OK #yamsquad
What’s the point
