Rowing is pain, no financial viability, disproportionate body, injuries, blisters everywhere, huge egos, confrontation and skin cancer but overall i would say it's pretty good 8/10
I think "injuries" are below the curve for this sport compared to any other. The back injury issue is a chronic thing, from poor coaching/technique, otherwise, all is very positive regards normal levels of application providing excellent health benefits. Confrontation.... not easy, stuck 20 feet apart in boats that don't do ramming. You say skin cancer, I say vitamin D. It is a question of attitude or latitude.
Ceiling Fan It’s much more work than any other team sport I can think of. Instead of just kicking a ball around you are actually working your entire body while having to stay in sync with the rest of the boat.

What do you mean disproportionate body? Rowing works pretty much every part of your body
Cody F I think he means bodily proportions in the sense of really long arms and legs in comparison to your chest, which improves your stroke length
@@MrTr0n fairly certain he's talking about how rowing one side (sweep) can lead to an unbalanced body

Basically a free scholar ship to college as long as you have alright shoulders. Not an impressive sport by any means but whatever.
