Invictus Australia and Rowing Australia have teamed up to deliver a focused, high-impact indoor rowing challenge for veterans and their communities — and it’s now live.
Team Veteran – 213m Power Week is a free one-week indoor rowing program designed to sharpen your sprint power, improve your 213m performance, and reignite your confidence on the machine.
Whether you're training for a personal milestone or gearing up for the 2025 World Rowing Virtual Series, this program offers a simple, structured way to train with purpose.
213m Power Week features three fast, repeatable sessions, each under 20 minutes. Built around short bursts and benchmark efforts, it’s designed for all fitness levels.
Day 1 – Acceleration Repeats
6 × 20-second sprints from a dead stop (90 sec rest)
Focus: Quick reaction and start speed
Day 2 – Power Overload
4 × 300m at approximately 90% effort (3 min rest)
Focus: Power endurance
Day 3 – 213m Pressure Test
2 × 213m all-out efforts (3 min rest)
4 × 20-second sprint bursts (90 sec rest)
Focus: Benchmark performance and finishing speed
Repeat as needed in the lead-up to the Virtual Series, or use it as a reset to re-engage with training.
No prior rowing experience is required. Just a Concept2 rowing machine, 20 minutes, and a mindset to give it your best.
The program is hosted on the Row Nation platform and free for anyone to complete.
