Um. Guilty on the rowing. I only started about 4½ years ago. I quickly discovered that the Concept2 indoor rowing machine is the single best machine in the gym.

Then PFDs, cross bars for my car, Yakima "saddles" to actually cradle the shell car-top. Yeah, it's been quite an endeavor, but I am in the best shape of my life!
