Good move, a lot of rowing being i think in the legs more than anything.
Be interesting to see how he does

Re:

I would say it's more an all over body work out.

Leg strength is important, but so too is arm strength. He will need to bulk those guns up, IMO!

Note; I'm staying on topic with this thread!

Re:

I used to share digs with a few people. One was nocturnal but unfortunately they had a rowing machine in their room above. Grrrrr!

Good luck to Wiggins, I say. Is he disillusioned with the world of roadies?
