Tapping the roots

So I've taken up a plan to include a lot more rowing into my workout routine, something about the way the Vikings had to row miles and miles just to get to some random place and then have to get out and go rampaging and then still have the raw determination to row the spoils home is just amazing. So on top of any weight/resistance training I'm going to be adding some Nordic cardio...hehe. There's a lot more to rowing, thanks to modern innovations, but I can almost guarantee the principal of practice/practice/practice still holds true. Of course I don't plan on breaking any records or anything crazy but it's something to aim for at least. I'm planning on including some other Viking warrior activities, wood-choppers...and such. Hopefully before long I'll be feeling and channeling some Norse Gods to bring my fitness to a Valhalla worthy standard.
