    Start off at your skill level, and don't expect huge changes to happen instantly! Have a varied training schedule, and build up to intense training, such as 3 sessions a week, then 4 sessions then 5, building up to whatever number you want. If you feel ill, do a very very light session, as this won't impair your recovery, and won't interrupt your training too much. Do tests such as ergo tests infrequently, so you can see a bigger impact on your ability, as this will be a morale boost. Eat healthily, and carb load for three days before an event, and eat lots of protein after training sessions.
    There's more if you want it, technique wise, and fitness tips...

    Keep a steady rhythm and don't row faster or slower than you are capable of. Just row naturally and row within your limits; don't try to exceed them unless you are gunning for the finish line; then go all out.
    Try energy drinks and eat plenty of carbs before the big day. And always hydrate yourself even if you are in water; the oxymoron of the Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner.

    A small boat works well with oars.
