- Another November trial under the belt! It is always a mixture of emotions heading to Boston, a lot of pressure builds op creating a mixture of excitement and nervousness. @jnarobson said it best, we came away unscathed!
Thanks so much @trulysweetvisuals for the sweet capture of @jnarobson finishing off the weekend in the pair!
They are working on a documentary showing what club rowers do to be club rowers, here is a teaser to the doc: www.trulysweetvisuals.com/doc...

This reminded me of our sons experience rowing a PB at college. He went sub 6 but felt like his eyes were going to pop. Bad migraine. Vomiting. His coach stood over him and asked for a thumbs up or down. Thumbs down meant call an ambulance. He gave a thumbs up and recovered. Scary.
i love the fact its very serious and then all of a sudden its just him with a banana in his hand.
When I was editing it did seem quite an abrupt change! 😂
🤣
Imagine averaging a 1:28 for a 2k, don't think I could even quite do that for a 500! You looked really composed for most of it, and deserved to PB. Unfortunate about the 5K, but you'll get there, just keep 🍠in'! Well done Cam
That was my plan, a controlled 1k and then step on big, my avg was 1:29.8 through the k! Thanks for the support Cavan! #yamsquad
Seen you out in the lagan in a quad this saturday. Just as we were rowing up to the start
@@sloppybicep3677 nice man! Were you competing in the head race? Nice little novice quad, we probably looked dreadful 😂 come say hi if you're ever about!
I did a 500m last week and 1.28 was my average, I literally scraped under 1.30min by the narrowest of margins as my legs caved and the last couple of pulls were all arms. These boys have some steel in them to hold that on 2k, remarkable athletes
@@ianaspinall7948 hey are you an adult? I just want to know because of your time lol
At 12:12 cam realises he left the gas hob on at home
Thanks for the uncut footage of the 2k, man. I love to see how people race and the phases they go through. And dang, an 1:28 average is sick. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the feedback! Much appreciated #yamsquad
Congratulations on the 2k pb! That was massively impressive! This made me pumped to get yammin' on this mornings intervals 💪
That's awesome! Good luck with the yanmin'
Best vlog yet! Awesome performance by all the lads. Congrats on the PB. Keep on #yammin on!
That's the plan Ivan! #yamsquad
Amazing performance on the 2k Cam. Heart was pounding just watching, brought back distant U23 memories from a very long time ago. Great credit to you for full transparency around everything you are doing. It's stressful enough preparing and attending trials without putting together all the footage you do. It's compelling to watch. Better luck next time in the pair, only a few seconds separating you and 3rd. From the short clip looks like you are generating good power, lots of km's over the winter in the small boats and I am sure you will be at the top or thereabouts. Best of luck
Thank you very much! That's the plan! Alot of work to do!
A great recovery from the start of the year. Nice that I can follow what the team are up to, Thanks.
Agreed! Good progress!
Congrats on the PB and thanks for the VLOG.. awesome insight. You can only IMPROVE keep on YAMMIN' big man. Well done.
That's the plan! Always things to work on! Thank you! #yamsquad
Great effort!
I was looking forward to this video all weekend.
Love the "B" roll.
Now just keep the "Gains Train Rolling!"
Thanks for watching! #yamsquad
Oh my word. It brings the memories back. Feeling like you have done well and then seeing what really good looks like. Quite how deep you have to dig to do a PB. That feeling; throwing up (bad) versus I pushed harder than I have ever done before (good). Many years ago, squad rowing, on the erg next to chips like Matt Pinsent and Jonny Searle, feeling satisfied and not very good at the same time. Xx:51 - I hope that you’re feeling rather pleased with yourself.👍
Thanks for sharing! Definitely getting there!!
Congrats on putting it all out there and the strong result. It looks like only a couple of small differences and you've have been top 4. Onwards and upwards!
Indeed Adrian! Always working! #yamsquad
Congrats on the erg portion. And the filming was great too
That pain cave was pretty deep! Great work on the 2k pushing yourself to (past?) the limit. Mental toughness is so important in rowing!
Thanks a lot! I think I got very close to the limit for sure!
A big congrats on your 2K PB Cam! 🎉 There should always be something to improve. Recover well and keep going.
Thank you! Much appreciated! Always room to yam!
my dissertation can wait...
Congratulations 💪💪
Congrats on the results! Keep yammin
Impressive erg session Cam, congrats on the PB! Amazing how deep you guys can go, you were actually cross-eyed getting of the ergo, geez. Too bad 5K didn't work out as expected, but keep #yammin!
Just gotta keep on yamnin'
3:08 - who is she? for science purposes only of course
I will PM u her phone number
I can confirm that's a Durham Uni aio...
she dummy thicc
Thanks for making my eyes cured
Congrats on the PB erg Cam!
Thank you! #yamsquad
Hi Cam my daughter lily and I have been following your journey for some time and just love how u smashed the erg out of the ballpark. Go u good thing!
That's amazing, thanks for the support Greg and Lily! #yamsquad
Well done, great job on that monster 2k. :) You made me chuckle at the end there, it looked like you were cold and in need of a blanket.
Thanks Simon! Yeah I don't really know what I was doing there! 😂
Savage Yammin!!!!
Well done mate
Thanks Simon! Appreciate the support #yamsquad
Well done Cameron
Quality 2k erg and vlog, congrats on the pb
Thanks John! #yamsquad
Hi Cam, really great video. Just wondering (if this isn’t too personal!) what you’re thinking about/what motivates you through the 2k, especially around the 1500-500 mark where the end still isn’t really in sight. Does the thought of giving up ever really enter your mind? If so, how do you deal with it?
Love a good 2k every now and then
Quality 2k, power and control.
i give you 9.5 out of 10 for the weekend for the vlog production!
Awesome! I want sure how it would come out!
Ok, I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels the way I do after a 2k row/PR.
Awesome video, definitely one of my favourites of yours. I thought it looked like you were rowing quite short for a lot of the 2k, is that the angle or deliberate? (bar spinning it up at the end). Also really interesting to see the different erg styles amongst the country's elite guys, Sholto's style is so unique and his rate doesn't seem to touch yours for most of the piece! And seeing how people react to the post 2k 'state' is incredible...thanks for the video!
It's deliberately short! My rate was quite high, especially for someone my size but feels comfortable. I tend to waste a lot of energy if I lengthen out on something like a 2k
I have always thought Sholto's "body type" is unique. He is a pure champion -- definitely one of my heroes. In Tokyo, or perhaps Paris, maybe we will see a GB 8 with Sholto stroking, Ollie in six, and Big Mo and Cam filling the Engine Room. Gold, for sure!
My all-time favorite from those Yale boats is Nate Goodman (perhaps because he is from Montclair, New Jersey -- about 15 miles from my house). I can't find out what he is doing now, though. He had the best drive and rhythm that I have ever seen in a university oarsman.
Watch the final from the 2015 Henley Ladies Plate final. To set the scene, Yale had won the Eastern Sprints, where Cam's Northeastern won the Silver -- only 1.2 seconds behind Yale. The Elis then bombed the semi-final of the IRA (US collegiate national championship) and had to race (and win) the "B" final. A week after the IRA, Yale beat Harvard for the first time in over a decade. By contrast, Yale's Henley opponent, U. Washington, had just won the IRA. Destiny awaited on the Thames, after Yale resurrected its season on the Th"ay"mes, in New London. Enjoy: th-cam.com/video/NwAEiYlAgBo/w-d-xo.html (Nate is stroking; Sholto is a freshman in the bow).
Amazing. Congrats on the PB.
When you’re on the limit it just comes down to how much you’re willing to hurt........you answered that 😂
Thank you! That's so true isn't it!!
Thanks for your reply Cameron. Question for you: is it permissable at the highest level to use something like foam on the seat to help you ? Or do you have to forego it in competition? Would it be judged as giving you an unfair advantage?
I'm referring to the erg here not on the water.
At 6.2 and 83 kilos I can never hope to match what you 'giants' achieve but i absolutley love the challenge of the erg. It tests every aspect of your being. I did my first 1 hour row yesterday and clocked 13,237 metres. I think it will take a week at least to get over it....!
Love your vlogs, keep them coming.
Cheers,
Blair.
This was essentially a competition and I was allowed. Alot of Crossfit athletes use foam pads too. It helps me becauae I'm a bit larger than what the rowing machine is built for. Others use them for comfort. There are people your height pulling similar and faster splits than me!
13:41 oh yeah
PB,,,,, aawwwww yeaaaaaa. How we loves the pain?!! Boyce Budd, Vesper 6seat 1964 Gold in Tokyo, speaks to the pain in a video in 1999. He expresses that 1000meters in his mind says Bronxe would be good/ok. Then with 500meters to go when the thoughts wander for that 1/4 second, do I have enough left. And then, the finish line. And he says, you just want the pain to go away. And it gets worse. It wells up, and comes in waves. It is minutes later that the crew can congratulate each other. He describes other sport races where when the winner crosses the line,,they are able to toss their arms above their head in victory. Sometimes we sit as winners looking a little bit dead. Congratulations on that PB. Looks like a very good leg day. Aweee yeaa.
It's a very good description! Thanks for the support! #yamsquad
I met Boyce or one of his boatmates at a regatta in Wichita, KS on 11/3. (He was wearing a cap that said “Vesper Tokyo Gold ‘64”). I would love to see the video you reference but could not find it. Could you post the link?
@@franklevy709 You tube video. A Fine Balance- - US Mens 2000 Olympic Rowing. Boyce is at about 18:00 minutes in.
Awesome effort!! Congrats on that PB!! What happens to your arms after hard yamming?
Thanks! They are quite sore! Along with everything else
fair to say you yammed hard this weekend
Fantastic vlog! My palms were sweating in the lead up and during the 2k.. thanks for posting the footage in real time and uncut! I'm fascinated to see what this means for you going forward with regards GB etc. Well done on the PB!! #yamsquad
Are the guys who rowed in the World Championships tested too to ensure they're still where they need to be? I know they're excused this trial but I assume they are in the pot too somehow?
Thanks for the support! The other guys didn't do trials and they're being coached and watched by the GB coaches for their comparisons
Cameron Buchan cheers Cam, thanks for taking the time.. have a great week!
Awesome videos, man -- maybe consider a second dedicated shot of the screen with stats (pace, etc) in real time. Would make the tests even more dynamic to watch
Appreciate the feedback Sam! Theres definitely a lot of things that could be improved but most of them aren't done because rowing is first over filming! Like in this video I pointed the camera towards the erg and forgot about it. I'm not going to use my warm up to set up and film! Hope that makes sense!
I come from the future...you get even faster
what time did calum get? or are we not allowed to know?
Faster than me!
I have a self imposed 2k during my lunch break tomorrow and I'm nervous already. I can't imagine the stress you and the others were under here. Respect. I'm hoping for a 7:50. I'm 57 and have been erging for a month so cut me a little slack :)
Hopefully it goes well! Good luck! #yamsquad
@@CameronBuchan 7.42. Gave it everything. Very happy. 7:30 next goal.
you should be so proud of this. what is your recommendation for training without an erg for the off season?
Doing exercise that you enjoy is probably my biggest tip!
@@CameronBuchan surely there's a specific suggestion
@@hugog2760 I really enjoy cycling although that's not for everyone!
@@CameronBuchan i try to cycle but it's really hard
That was awesome, Cam. I was nervous the whole time, and the waiting the extra day to see the vlog was tough. But not as tough as you. Congratulations on the 2K. Anytime that you PB -- especially at a competition -- should be a 10. As for the pair, it takes a long time to get comfortable in that boat. And you still rowed well. Robson and you beat Sholto. He is a champion. He won Sprints four times in a row. He won IRA his Junior and Senior year. I don't think he lost a race those two years (though they might have won Silver at the 2018 San Diego Crew Classic; that is his only race since 2016 that I haven't seen). He is also a bit of a pair specialist. He won the 2018 World University Games pair with Harry Glenister (and didn't Glenister win trials with George Rossiter?). You had a brilliant weekend. Thank you for sharing it with the Yamsquad -- especially thank you for including the entire 2K. That was the coolest thing that I have watched in a long time.
Best,
Jamie
#Yamsquad
Thanks alot Jamie! Yeah I raced sholto multiple times in the US! All great guys to train with. Thanks for the support! #yamsquad
What country do u row in the water is so nice
Pretty much all in the UK!
Hi Cam, just wondering what was your warmup before the 2k? You seemed quite sweaty and tired before starting. Also do you have any tips when warming up before?
Yup the aim is to be very sweaty before! Definitely wouldn't say tired though. My tip would be just that. Get sweaty and warm before you start. Let your body know what's coming!
Wow!! Thanks for the quick reply! Keep up the Great Work!
Yam on, ya mon, Jamaica mon.
If i run out of cookies.... I have trouble standing and have vomiting also.
Hi Cameron, is that a piece of foam you have on your rowing seat? Does it help? I enjoy your videos. I'm 59 and just beaten my PB for the 2K doing 8.23. Not bad for an oldie!!!!!!
Hi Blair, congrats on the PB! The foam helps me as my levers are quite long, giving me a bit more space to "fold up"!
Great work..... Maintaining a 2:05-ish split for 8 minutes is a great achievement and requires a decent level of fitness. Most muggles ( non rowing folk ) would be dead after 3 minutes at that pace. Keep at it, and good luck for your next PB....
A
What do you set the resistance to on the Concept2?
I've e made so many videos regarding drag factor! The trials drag factor is 138,
what drag do you do the trials at?
The trial drag is 138
I counted about 218 strokes. I guess a strategy is to do very short, quick ones at the end?
That is one strategy, as sometimes you can't really maintain that intensity for long!
Congratulations! I saw an extra pink seat that you stacked on top of the original seat, what material is it made from so that it does not slide off the seat? Is it to increase the height or to protect the butt? Sorry for the noob question
Protects the butt. It’s just EVA foam - can buy them online
Whats your favourite boat to row in?
I am really enjoying the pair right now!
Nice 2k time
Nice PB
Thanks Cameron! #yamsquad
I've forgotten how soul-crushingly dull it is to row at Boston
I quite enjoyed it!
wait so what time did you get?
5:51.9
I got a new pb as well I am 14 and I row for fermoy in Ireland my new pb is 7 : 07
That's awesome! Great work!
where could we obtain the Yamsquad merch?
It will be yamsquad.com just updating the website with the new merch!
What was your rate? I was counting like a 36-38?? Pretty high!
Last k was 38, then 41 for each 500
How was Stanhope??? Great job!!
He is still recovering from surgery!
Idk why I’m watching these I have a 2k scull trial on the weekend and this is stressing me out. Love your videos tho! Keep it up man.
Thanks for watching! Hopefully not too tense for your trial! Good luck!
What time is your 2k and 5k?
The 2k is in this vlog. 5k we will find out this year!
I’m a novice cox at uni so I know basically nothing about rowing, I just wanted to ask about your technique - to me in my limited knowledge your sequencing looked a bit funny on the erg. Maybe it’s just the way we’re trained but you used your arms and body simultaneously with the legs rather than legs then body tilt then arms
You are right! The sequencing isn't ideal. It is an unfortunate consequence of not having my good technique 100% natural so you see more of a default technique! On top of that my focus is greatly on the number on the screen rather than the technique!
Cameron Buchan I understand, I know I do it whenever I erg and especially when I get tired. Thank you! Really helpful
11:50 wanna a hug, Cam?
Always!
Nice 🍠🍠🍠 bro! When will u find out if you've been selected??
There is some news in todays vlog!
Do you think you'll do better in February?
That's the plan Alex! But all the squad guys will be trialling then too so have to keep working!
Does robson row for University of Washington?
He doesn't, just has Washington kit!
What's your wingspan Cam?!!
They measured it at 208cm!
@@CameronBuchan good stuff!
Row longer! You’re too central when you row. You need to rotate and use all your slide. You’ll go a lot faster for it.
Thanks for the tip! I'll keep it in mind!
Oh god I have coursework to do but I can take a break
A healthy break!
The ERGODOME....! In the ergodome... no one walks off the pain Mr Buchan mu ha *strokes white cat*
12:46 yep this is how death feels like😭🌝
how awesome to be on the other side of the screen... 😱) Why you racing without sensors heart rate?
For the 2k test i dont feel HR is neccesary!
@@CameronBuchan,for analysis?
I suppose that could be handy!
What's this lads reach?
What is my reach? I'm not sure what you mean. My arm span is 205?
@@CameronBuchan Same thing, just interested me. Looked about 17feet tall so.

Appreciate the feedback! Can't really change the video from 4 years ago but can try and improve the next ones
