You should definatelly write a book.
It is very hard to fully understand your principles just reading this thread.
At the moment I try to figure out what qualities one should improve with rowers.
Given they already have high cardiac output and a resting heartrate in the low 40s.
A high anaerobic treshold seems to be of great importance as this would allow them to limit the lacitc acid produtcion by taxing their lacitic anaerobic system later in the race.
On the other hand improving their alactic anaerobic system doesn't seem to help in this case.
Of course it depends on the individual strengths and weaknesses of the athlete what he needs to work.
I still wonder which qualities you would focus most on with a rower.
