Totally agree. As a retired exercise physiologist I cringe at the advice given by people with poor form and a 6 month correspondence course in 'fitness coaching'. They know just enough to give you bad habits and possible chronic injuries. 😊🇦🇺
well done ## krótko i na temat. szacunek i wieLkie dzięki :) pierwszy trener który zwraca uwagę na wysokość stóp, wreszcie ogarniam dlaczego garbiłem lędźwie. DZIĘKI !!! pzdr z Polski
Very clear explanation of how to row and how to think about drag factor. You mentioned high resistance is used more for conditioning. Could you do a video on that, please?
Thank you for this. I was missing the detail about moving the arms forward before the body does when resting. I was wondering which should go first, also nice to see the bit
How come the Dutch national team doesn’t look like this? In 2023 WC, the Dutch won 6 gold and 4 silver. If they used this flat back method with the big swing over, on the medal table they’d have finished with the American men: no medals, again! This technique works great for the fastest erg times but is essentially a looser on the water where it counts!
Nice! Perhaps also an explanation of the setting of the dragfactor? And at higher rate you see on this static ergometer the sliding less used and some shoulder/back forward movement. Inevitable on this kind of static ergometers. Try a dynamic one (i.e. also a Concept2)
Don’t need your shins to be perfectly vertical - the catch only starts when your feet are flat on the foot stretcher anyway. See Eric Murray’s video on foot position
I mean honestly it's not fantastic but it's definitely a start, and it's faster than I was when I started! Instead of having the resistance as high as you can, put it somewhere in the middle. It's like gears on a bike, it doesn't mean you have to work any more or less it's just loaded differently.
@@cameronogilvie3364 thanks bro!!! I really appreciate your feedback. Since I posted this, I have gotten a bit faster, doing right now 5000 in 23.18 I'm looking for 5000 in 20 mins.
I have just begun to use a rowing machine for over a week now, by doing a HIIT (10min = 1min on + 1min off) exercise. The rowing machine I am using is a combination between rowing and recumbent bike, but I dont use the bike. I wanted to know if I am doing anything incorrectly since I feel the majority of the workout heavily in my legs/outer thighs and buttocks, but not so much in my upper body such as stomach, arms or shoulders, even though my form is correct. Since this machine has a back rest for the recumbent bike, would this mean that it could be impacting on proper rowing ability?
