2K rowing plan

Your 2K rowing plan

A structured erg plan to lower your 2K — a steady-state aerobic base, threshold work to raise your sustainable split, and race-pace intervals to sharpen the test — built around your week and adapted to how your pieces actually go.

Built for the 2K, not a list of pieces

The 2K is short, brutal and decided by the split you can hold. Your coach builds a periodized plan that earns that split: steady-state to build your aerobic base, threshold work to raise your sustainable pace, and race-pace intervals so 2K pace feels repeatable — then a taper into a test piece.

Each week has a purpose, and your coach explains it — why today is steady state and why the intervals sharpen toward your test.

Built around your split and your days

Chasing your first sub-8, a sub-7, or a new PB — the plan is shaped by your current 2K split and how many days you can train, not a generic template that assumes a rower you aren't.

Adapts to how your pieces actually go

You log your sessions, and your coach guides pace and volume from there — building intensity sensibly toward your target 2K split, and backing off with a recovery week when it's time to absorb the work.

Preview your plan first

See your first weeks day by day before you commit — the pieces, the target splits and effort, and your coach's reasoning. Activate only when it looks right for you.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a Concept2 or specific erg?
Any indoor rower works. Sessions are prescribed by pace and effort, so you train at the right intensity whatever machine you're on.
I'm new to the erg — is that okay?
Yes. The plan starts from your current 2K split and the days you can train, then builds steadily from there.
Will I do full 2K test pieces every week?
No — testing is placed deliberately. Most weeks build the base and the split; the plan tapers into a test piece when you're ready to see the payoff.
Is it free?
Yes, GetMyCoach is free during early access.
