Starting today, January 1st, 2018, the Commandant of the Marine Corps has authorized Marines 46 years of age and older to row 5 kilometers on the Concept 2 Rowing Ergometer as an alternative to running on the Physical Fitness Test. The purpose of this webpage is to educate Marines on the rowing standards as well as provide information on rowing technique and workouts.
Check out the "Rowing Standards" link - do you have what it takes to "row-like-a-Marine"?

Concept2, Inc. did an outstanding job assisting the United States Marine Corps in structuring this program for "The Few, The Proud".
I am a Concept2, Inc. factory-trained indoor rowing instructor. Just ask for no-cost 1-on-1 coaching on the Concept2 indoor rower at any time and any gym/fitness center. I formed an official Yuma Military Installations team for Concept2 - just ask for details. Any indoor rower can qualify for the elite annual Crash-B Indoor Rowing Championships in Boston - from Yuma.
Semper Fidelis,
