We all know that rowers are among some of the most dedicated athletes out there; willingly sacrificing the weekend sleep-ins to hit the water at it’s calmest, pushing thliselves through gruelling sessions on the ergs in training as well as the countless blisters, aches and pains that come with it.

This level of dedication is not to be taken lightly, however we feel these athletes have taken their devotion to a whole new level!

Below is a selection of some of the most interesting rowing-thlied tattoos we could find from around the world.

If you have a rowing tattoo that you would like to share with us, we would love to hear from you! Leave a comment below or write to us on Facebook.
