Kia Ora . Im so happy i come across this. Im a newbie to Waka Ama, 3month max. I like how you say,learn to move the body rather then your arms. I will try this technique at training tonight. I feel even after 3months of paddling my forearms and shoulders ache after coming of the water. Im powering my arms and not moving the body much. Good to see other techniques,might pass on to my coach lol

[@HYPRFIT]

Aloha Jay .> Thank you = YES Please share this with your Coach .. it will make his life easier so he can FOCUS on the REFINEMENT points to get faster improvement to beginners .. yes if your shoulders HURT now .. it's because you're putting the WEIGHT of your BODY onto the shoulder joint.. this will end your paddling career really soon .. so YES.. PULL with your whole body .. it's a one arm dead lift .. ALoha Ian

I love the tip to sit further up. I found myself trying to make sure I was sitting further forward so I could get push in the foot rests. As I kept paddling I kept sliding further back in my seat so had to keep adjusting forward. It’s just tough trying to get all the parts together and still stay in synch with the other five guys LOL! I’m only have about 60 miles under my belt so I’m glad I found this video before I start developing some bad habits. Thanks!

[@HYPRFIT]

Aloha Steve .. Watch this video - kzbin.info/www/bejne/oIWvdIGYm95pfqc VIRGINS are the most precious 🤣😅😆But that being said . .you can ALWAYS lock yourself to the boat using the KNEES as well to lock yourself in like SIDEWAY clamps to hold you place.. make sure you got GOOD thick tights or below the knee shorts OR you'll have BONE on inside of the the Canoe .. blood in the water kinda thing ! -

[@Lehmann108]

That elbow break at the bottom arm at the end of the stroke is something I see in so many OC paddlers. As you said it seems to come about because the paddler is "arming" it to some degree at the end of the stroke.

[@James-nr9gm]

Great lesson! I used to dive forward with my chest the way your students did. I learned better in a workshop, but have lost the sitting up aspect - I noticed this in practice today and want to reincorporate it into my stroke now that I’m rotating smoothly and not rocking the boat. Aloha and mahalo from Seattle!

[@HYPRFIT]

Aloha James .. just LOOKING UP will help a lot .. I make the same mistakes .. especiall when you're TIRED ... makes you even MORE TIRED then ... vicious negative cycle .. You can contact me anytime 808-960-4667 - SHARE IT ❤❤

My coach from the Lanikai Canoe Club sent this out to the Novice Bs. So helpful, thank you !

[@HYPRFIT]

Please THANK your Coach for me .. I really appreciate it - check this out too - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYCyf6yqeb6Hm6c

[@ballagh]

Thank you for probably the simplest yet most comprehensive explanation of a paddling stroke I’ve seen. I’ve been helming/coaching at a start up dragon boat club and “pits to gunnels” is about to be tried out as a prompt!

[@HYPRFIT]

Bradda Ballagh ANYTIME .. I 've been coaching a few DB Clubs in Australia and SE Asia the last month and it's stunning to see immediate improvement in ACCELERATION without "FRANTIC" response ...Feel free to contact me FB under HYPR IAN FOO or just call me 808-960-4667 .. I love sharing with Coaches❤❤ Do share it.. it will save you TIME & Effort so you can focus on REFINEMENT

[@johnmills859]

Great instruction, and simple. Mahalo.

[@HYPRFIT]

It's a life philosophy really 😆 .. Thank you John

[@steezymcgreezy]

Very helpful video…

[@pcatful]

Thank you! This is what I like. Engaging the core and it's easier to translate to the lower body and legs too. I trained cleaning stalls and tossing loads.

[@rojioyama248]

Solid! Yes to this, broh.

[@HYPRFIT]

Thank you Sensei .. help me dispel the MYTHS & BS in Paddling 🤣🤣- Save the Planet .. Share it

[@scdrescher1]

[@eleanormulloy7983]

As my excellent coach says "Put paddle in water and pull" I get so up i my head that I can barely do that sometimes!

[@winnvo8088]

100% spot on

[@Peponapis]

Can someone explain what he means at 0:52 and 1:58? I thought he meant don't bend the elbow to recover (to get the paddle out), and he doesn't bend it each time he is explaining that technique. But when he isn't focused on that, his bottom elbow is bending to recover. Example 4:48.

[@HYPRFIT]

do this DRILL - kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGnbdZ6qZc-IbKc Howzit Pepo .. you're not looking at the Big Picture of your ENTIRE MOVEMENT - once the POWER PHASE is DONE than you can "break" your elbow RELAXED ..

[@SP-qo1so]

The day after my hardest paddling days, my legs are the most sore 🤙

[@HYPRFIT]

EXACTLY .. my butt muscles too !! 🤣🤣 - Please share it

I think that top arm chicken wing comes from Tupu King. You can see it in the Wake Ama 2021 500meter sprint. Clearly its not a problem for him but it would be for we mere mortals!

[@HYPRFIT]

Aloha Lehmann - No NOT Tupu King ... I was with him in Singapore on a trip before during the Singapore Ocean Cup.. he might have done it in Sprints as part of correcting the direction of his boat drawing his blade .. He's the real deal .. much younger but one of the few I really respect .. but I love to see the video you're talking about

[@colbert6122]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/oKmXXn5pi9mtiJo Tupu king doesn't "chicken wing", but he did mention starting with top arm bent and pressing the top arm forward to apply better drive force to the paddle

[@HYPRFIT]

Aloha Lehmann - Actually he follows what I've said for 10 years of video.. you do BEND your ELBOW ( keep it high ) to ENGAGE the LAT and ABS for the TOP ARM Drive .. BUT .. you DO NOT .. DROP your ELBOW .. Go look at the video AGAIN .. I specifically mention that >> Thank you for bringing that up.. Aloha - Dude join my FB page I could use your help fight fake news - Please share this - Part 2 - kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6Gan5mmhal-mZo - ready to roll

[@Lehmann108]

A year later, but I stand corrected! Thanks for the additional info.

[@h.barbosa6114]

zero % bodyfat....increadible

[@HYPRFIT]

I wish but it's more like 8 % LOL ! .. I think that's what other guys tell me but that's not the problem.. it's the 60 year old skin that sags 🤣😂 -Join us on FB - HYPR IAN FOO

Trying to overcome a lifetime of instincts is difficult. Difficult to teach your body to NOT paddle with your arms. Instead, think of paddling as a full-body exercise like a muscle-up or deadlift while sitting.

[@HYPRFIT]

Brother thank you very much I couldn't put it better myself
