Is there a way to do this that doesn't involve manually selecting every other row individually and filling them one at a time?

Yes, there is. The first result when you type "colour alternate rows in excel " into Google gives a good example of how to achieve this.

hi Rixonomic, select the range you need from top left to bottom right (like A2:C10) & go to Home -> Conditional Formatting -> New Rule -> Use a formula to determine which cells to format:
=MOD(ROW(),2)=0
or
=MOD(ROW(),2)=1
depending on whether you want the odd or even row to be highlighted
