Cross training! All that rowing works everything except your chest, so have to offset with bench press.
Not that I am good at it, or skrong, but it becomes essential.
Second would be crunches.
Squats: super important but as a now old person I do not want a ton of weight like that pressing on my spine. So no free barbell squats, but plenty of leg presses and gym squat machine work.
Pull ups I would support but always seem to strain something when I do them, so I do a ton of hangs from bars instead of pull ups. Plus it sucks being lanky with all that bone weight to move up

I do a mix of kettle bell squats, leg press machine and barbell squats. For the bar bell squats, I keep the weight really light and focus on good technique. Doesn't seem to make my spine or knees hurt and it makes my skiing so much stronger. I like to watch videos of Lindsay Vonn doing squats. BRB, JO.
I've always sucked at pull ups and was one of the worst guys on our squad at them. Hence, the pull up assist machine being my savior.
Bar bell bench press is the most helpful and safest when your solo.

This is how we do in the 509
Rubber suits optional.

little finger pushups are the final frontier of fitness

Hate doing squats, but I do them often enough because, as a friend once explained to me, "I want to be able to get myself up from the toilet when I'm old."
Barbell curls bother my right worst because there's no ability to rotate at all due to being locked at two points, so I instead do dumbell curls.
Pullups are also money.
If anybody votes for crunches they are lying.
