- Hello UA-camrs! It is the end of Erg Week and I have filmed the whole thing to show the Yamsquad what an entire week of training looks like for me at the moment. I have been posting snippets of each day on Instagram but this is the full week in one episode with more of my thoughts and feelings surrounding the workouts as well as the workouts themselves! I ended up completing over 200,000m or 200k on the rowing machine plus the cross training and weights sessions so was a pretty full on session! Getting some solid training in and excited for what the season holds.
If you're looking for any of the weights kit I used in the video head over to mirafit.co.uk and see what they have for you!

#yamsquad #rowing
the fact that his hour pieces are the average of my 6k.
Bruh, this is almost my 2k average
Have a 2k tomorrow Cam, hopefully gonna break 7 mins. Your content has helped me push on massively and just wanted to show my appreciation for the work you put in and show us, there’s not many athletes of your level that would do so. It’s absolutely inspiring. Thanks 🙏
Good luck! Stick to the plan
literally in the same situation dude good luck!
results ??
@@mallau2441 close but no cigar went 7:01 but still a PR
@@giolgoeire392 so close! you'll get it next time. During my race I got 6:48. For me, what helped was drinking tons of orange juice before the race, creating a short playlist of songs that pumped me up / distract me from the pain, warming up like 30 minutes before and staying somewhat warm leading up to the start, but what messed me up was getting 4hrs of sleep before the race.
I also did like 1-2 months of zone two before the race and days before I stopped weight lifting and doing intense workouts for 3 days. Good luck!
It takes insane amounts of motivation to train solo like this, well done.
This is unreal to watch as a beginner! The power, endurance, and work ethic displayed here is super inspiring. Plus doggy coach!
Glad you like it!
by watching this I hope to complete my erg work by osmosis. so thanks for that.
Best of luck! 😂
Not sure if I should be encouraged or completely discouraged by watching that. 😂. Well done Cam.
True inspiration mate. I have been doing lots of hour straight steady state pieces around 1:58 as a sophomore in HS. maybe one day I can hit the splits that you are😃.
As long as it feels relaxing yet slightly challenging and you are at a low stroke per min and doing it for many mins that’s good
Nice work! Similar splits to me already.
That’s some serious kilometers! Wish you all the best Cam it’s always a pleasure to see you upload!
I think the mindset i admire the most is your mindset. You inspire me with that attitude to be a machine💪🏼
Gotta say Cam there's a part of me that misses the video every 2 days but after seeing this one I think I can happily change that. You seem relaxed and happy and the vlogging seems almost an afterthought to the rest of your life. I like it. And the creative camera angles are great. I think this is a great way to format your videos, clean, calm, slice of life for a top level athlete. It's great fun to watch, enjoy yourself Cam
Good to hear! I was just not seeing the benefit of making videos that I essentially have alresdy made on the channel anyway. Making them when both I want to and there is something to show I think is a much more fun way of creating!
@@CameronBuchan I agree, and after seeing the proof in the pudding with this episode I think it's evidence you're on the right path. It's not forced whatsoever and it's totally at your discretion, I look forward to watching whenever you decide to upload :), cheers Cam, till next
Breaded Egg Toast SPONSOR THIS MAN!
Watch your videos quite a lot. Amzing speed. Way quicker than me Cam. Did 7 marathons in 7 days on my rower for a local charity all under 3hrs df of 140. Was happy with that as im 53 in a month
Nice work! 💪 💪
I could never do 3 sessions in 1 day likeyou do@@CameronBuchan
Great work as always. Well done for completing this and thanks for sharing your week with us #yamsquad
Cam - you are awesome!! My goodness! You are my hero!
💪
Erg week - impressive! With this sort of training are you lining up an ocean row in the near future???
It isn't on the current horizon, I probably wouldn't train this hard for that! More just steady long miles
Tu laches rien, au top !!!!
Bonkers. but you have just secured your continued monthly cup of tea from me.
Much appreciated!
Well done Cam. Awesome.
If you didn't exist, Cam, we would have to invent you. Love your work ethic. I am headed to HRR this year for Hear The Boat Sing - would you let me interview for the readers please?
Hi William! If I'm around at Henley then for sure, would be my pleasure. Plans aren't concrete on my side yet
@@CameronBuchan thanks. Please keep me informed. I shall arrive from Australia on the 12th June and shall be around in Henley or nearby until th end of the regatta.
How much stretching and mobility do you do to supplement this physical barrage with?
Not too much, little bit of rolling and hip work. Maybe couple of hours over the whole week
Cam , thank you for the great motivation!
My pleasure!!
I'm exhausted just watching. How's Yam doing? He's looking fit too.
Yam is doing well. Enjoying watching the metres getting done 😂
Whats the benefit of farmers walks for rowing? It would be fun to hear about your exercise selection in general ngl
insane discipline wow
Very inspirational brother, thanks for sharing this amazing video, quick question, do you warm-up before attempting every rowing sessions? If so what do you do for warm up
Thanks for the support!
For the easy sessions I generally won’t warm up but the harder sessions I’ll make sure I am. Depending on the session it will vary a bit but generally getting warm and sweaty involving low intensity and bursts at pace for the workout. I could for sure make a workout doing that!
I do 70 km a week and steady state at usualy 2:08 split as a beginer, i have a bit to go
Such a hard wokring athlete.
Hey cam, I love the videos! How do you avoid getting bored on the erg for these longer rows?
As I talked about in the video, generally will watch something on the steady work
Can we get some more information on this ‘breaded egg toast’ ? 😂
Graeme Gordon, 69, of Marlow Rowing Club, did 1,000,000m in 6.5 days.....!!!
That's a lot of metres!
Hey Cam! Have you got any tips for a 1k erg test please. Ps love the videos
It's a deceivingly long and short distance at the same time 😂 you can really go out hard and hold on in the last few hundred. But not too hard!
Have you ever attempted keto? The marketing says if you’re fat adapted you won’t crash after depleting glycogen because you’re just used to burning fat. Myself I find I never get back to the power I can sustain after eating carbs even after some real time in ketosis.
I've never tried it fully but I've never only heard of bad things when doing longer cardio work. Also, generally only lasts 10-20minutes depending on the workout for me
How Exactly does it change your physique. If I started doing this for example maybe not to this degree but just pushing myself for more distance what improvements would I see in the face of competition like a 1k erg competition?
You'd get fitter. Everything else held the same your times will get faster. The longer the distance the bigger the improvement
@@CameronBuchan Thank you so much for replying this is very helpful
Persiapan POPDA jabar💪🚣
Has the RP3 left the building?
No just didn't make it on the week trip home
Hi Cam, what do you recommend to in order to prepare for a very important regatta? I have southwest regional youth championships here in the states in a few weeks.
Listen to tour coach, make sure you have a solid race plan and stick to it, from now til after the final think about things like "will this help me go faster or slower at champs".
What are your thoughts on running for zone 2 training vs rowing for zone 2 training? Do you think it can be as effective to run for 1 hour at 130 bpm vs row for 1 hour at 130 bpm? I find it easier for time to pass running at slow pace vs rowing at slow pace.
I think it works quite well! It also depends on the goals. Ultimately you running isn't going to make your rowing better as such so depends how much time you have and how many sessions would be running vs rowing. Generally I will see a higher HR for running than rowing but that can be different for everyone. It is also nice to get off the erg once in a while!
Rowing is a rowing sport. Running is good for cross training but to be fast at rowing then you need to row. The same applies if you want to be good at running: you need to run regularly and consistently.
@@CameronBuchan What about cycling? How different would one hour of cycling be compared to 1 hour of rowing for your overall improvement, considering it uses more of the same muscle groups as rowing?
@@Ulaanbar same theory applies. It's good to have a change but it's not rowing
@@CameronBuchan that makes sense. thank you for the answer. My current training plan is about 4-5 hours of zone 2 running a week, 2-3 hours of zone 2 rowing, 3-4 hours of weight lifting, 2 HIIT rowing workouts, 2-3 hours yoga / mobility work, and 2 days on the water practicing with the crew.
my goal for my next 2k is 6:30 or below. hopefully I can hit that and be on my way to 6:15 or below one day.
Curious why you are doing your steady state above your normal zone? Looks like you're pushing a little harder.
Like I said at the end, it was an overload week so pushing the pace on the majority of the workouts and only a few steady state ones.
How many kcalories would you eat in a day when training like this ?
It's really my normal week, just more on water work. I eat around 5-6000/day
Your workouts are impressive, your warm ups are probably my whole workout, I wish you godspeed
Great to see you back again. One thing I've noticed is that in the earlier videos your arms seemed to progressively bend more straight after the catch ,as you (presumably) fatigued during longer pieces. You seemed to have resolved that - would you agree? `Keep on yammin'
Hopefully!
What’s your fastest 2k OTW in the scull?
I think 7:09 was it
Damn that’s quick 💨💨👀 - I had my first major 6 lane regatta in the scull yesterday. I was on target for sub 8 and was in 3rd with 400m to go when I crabbed on a bouy and fell in! I was a crowd favorite cuz I got back in and finished it in 8:40 after falling in!
@@Hi-kq5rx helps with a little wind! 😂 Nice work on your race!
@@Hi-kq5rx lol
Any reason why you do long ergs at r22?
Was looking at getting HR up into the right zone. Easier to do that with slightly higher rate
Nicely done, love you work!
Ever tried the ski-erg?
Indeed
Hi Cam, what’s the best type of workout to improve your 2k ?
Whatever your weakness is, work on that
Blast gear
@@Josh_Roberts epo
So like 203,563? How many freedom units is that?
One billion
What erg shoes do you use?
In this video I mostly used weights shoes but I'm trying out different ones at the moment. I've made video showing different outings and why they might be good
I'm a bit late whit this comment but is it normal if i am rowing and after so time times my legs starts hurting i was rowing quite strong and my rest was 3min i am training to be better so please help and some tips😅 could you make video about gym training fir rowers Thanks for the help❤
It depends what you mean by your legs hurting. It could be because you are pushing too hard and cannot hold that intensity. It could be technique related, I'm not sure. There are loads of videos on my channel talking about gym work for rowing
could it be that my legs don't have time to recover and maybe you could pin a video about gym training Thanks for the help and about my technique, it is quite poor because I don't cover my leg
@@dance-uz2mk I don't know many details about the workout or about your fitness so I can't say for sure. If you search weights for rowing on my channel you'll find a few options
OK Thanks for help man
What is the logic behind the high rep weights work? My intuition would be to favour high load low rep weights and leave muscular endurance to the sport specific training (erg/water).
Muscular endurance has been a weakness for me so, yes you would be right in working it on more specifically it doesn't hurt working it additionally!
How tall are you? It says online you are around 6ft 9".
I am 6 9
@@CameronBuchan How much do you think that has helped with your rowing career?
@@jonasnerven7334 definitely advantages to it but I'd say they don't outweigh disadvantages in the long run
@@CameronBuchan what kind of disadvantages? rowing specific ones or general health and fitness?
Huuuuuuuuuge
It's quite a lot, but Darren wapshott in the group rowalong rowed 295365m= 7 Marathons 7 days in a row all under 3 hours🚣💪That's also an achievement. And Craig Louie also in rowalong who recently rowed 10000000m in one season🚣👍I myself have rowed 20 hours straight once and it's probably the worst challenge I've done in a c2😜
That's awesome, good for them! Not trying to get into a pissing contest 😂
@@CameronBuchan It wasn't some pissing contest it was just for fun😉
