HI, I'M SHANE FARMER

HOW I FOUND THE BODY AND LIFE I WANTED WITH ROWING

Rowing change my life.

I was a terrible student, sub-par athlete, and I honestly had no clue what I could do with my life. But finding rowing in college after sleeping through baseball tryouts turned into the thing I needed to kick my life into gear. I found self-confidence, discipline, camaraderie, and I was the strongest I'd ever been.

Since 2005 when I started rowing, I've taught over 60,000 people to row through video alone. You can even see our current numbers by checking our youtube channel.

Rowing can be done the wrong way, or it can be done the right way. I've learned what works and what doesn't, and I want to use that knowledge to teach you how you can turn rowing into a profitable, usable tool in your training..

If you've been struggling to figure out the rower, you have the machines at your gym, and you want to be able to coach one of the fastest growing pieces of fitness equipment right now, COACHING ROWING - PRO is for you.
