Rowers and coaches, today there is no excuse for not analyzing your rowing technique frame by frame. Almost any smart phone can take footage and be played back on a computer screen. My tool of choice is my iPhone 4, truly incredible and simple to download to the computer. It is amazing how much detail you can see in frame by frame analysis and most of the time it is not pretty at all. Try it, have a look at your crews footage or your own technique and notice how much extra body movement there is which needs to be controlled and erased, because if you don't the race stroke rate will stay low, the boat won't run/glide, and the ratio inexistent.
I have had a wonderful experience coaching Rowers as well as coaches on how to surgically remove problem spots. The results are staggering. Stay tuned, sincerely,
