✅RIGHT vs ❌WRONG - Rowing Machine

[@ray-pingminors1210]

Guys. Champion rower 14yo experience. Only a rower can teach you. Shes not body over anywhere near enough.

[@knightsminifoundry]

she even added a dotted line pretending like having a straight back at the catch is good lol

[@samcaplan4646]

it is not bad to round your back a bit at the catch. You need to use back extension in the stroke to have more power and in general it is not bad to let your heels lift if it isn’t exaggerated, that is why the stretchers are designed to accommodate it.

[@STIZZLE1]

Fax, rowing like person up top is maybe good if you’re like 7 feet tall

[@ray-pingminors1210]

I disagree. Your back must be straight and ridgid at the catch, only bent at the hip. It must be able to immediately transfer the torque from your legs. Your better off taking more strokes like this than trying to get more length by bending ur back at the catch.

[@messybaker5373]

@@ray-pingminors1210I disagree with you.

[@JuanSchwartz9]

​​@messybaker5373 I agree with the guy that disagrees, the one you disagree with. So I disagree with your disagree making it an agree. You see?

[@doctoryeet5097]

⁠@@ray-pingminors1210, can nobody spell anymore? Rigid is a word. Ridgid is not.

[@RowingSwiftie25]

Your form isn’t quite right, but it is a major improvement. Some slight tweaks to be made: - you can lift your heels off the stretcher so that you can reach vertical shins for the catch. You could do this one of two ways the easy way is to just lift them by raising the feet on the ergo, the second is a more long term fix of improving your flexibility so that they only have to lift slightly. - you aren’t quite getting enough body lean. It has gone from one extreme to another. Think about a clock face. It should be 11-1 ensuring that you still have that lean forwards all the way to the catch but making sure that your shoulders don’t drop and you engage your legs first - third and final comment is again to do with your feet. You are raising your toes of the stretcher board. You should engage your core muscles to keep these flat as you can engage the most power through the ball of your feet right at the catch. A good exercise to fix this is feet out rowing to have less reliance on the straps. This will also help if you row in a boat as well and can be replicated as an exercise out on the water. Good luck and have fun rowing

[@ray-pingminors1210]

Rowing is about efficiency. Your stroke must be as long as possible, and from the second you start accelerating you must keep accelerating till the end of your stroke, as efficiently as possible. Sub 6min 2k here, and you can root yourself at 20 strokes per minute.

[@calebsimants8928]

as a J16 rower my coach would kill me if i did either

[@yaraviera4444]

Thanks

[@AxeMurderer1983]

I'm by no means an expert but what I love about rowing is that every single strokes takes concentration and I'm constantly checking and adjusting my form to get more out of it. Any movement is good but the better your form gets, the stronger you become.

[@caraninja]

The first is also bad. You need to follow legs, body, arms, then reverse it. You should have arms and body over and THEN bend your knees. Look up videos from Concept2

[@forrestwhittakerseye]

Good to know!

[@kristinapaxton9686]

Technique unfortunately is still wrong. You should be pushing through your toes, and with a straight back there should be some slight hinging back to get the full stroke. Get in a skiff or double and you will understand.

[@Noahrerro]

You do need a pivot in your hips right after your arms go in and out it's arms, pivot, legs

[@lucyyabigail]

Painful as a rower 😅

[@yuktajuneja3035]

How many minutes we should do this exercise?

[@svynie]

what does this machine does to help your body lose weight? I have always wanted to know each gym machine and what they do for your body, like is there ones for weight gain and ones for weight loss?

[@frogmanpipes9561]

Good thing you covered the dont part of the video. In senseless words

[@nowhy666]

Both are wrong. As a rower, you need to swing from the hips. The power comes from the hips. Then you swing back

[@truthbetold6496]

thanks i got myself a rower for extra cardio good i modified i was doing it wrong

[@subhamkumarsah933]

legs - core - arms then arms - core- legs

[@sophiaschult]

you need to get a bit more rock in the hips, both on the recovery and at the finish, and start rocking sooner. you also need to be getting more compression of your legs (your shins should be vertical at the catch) and you need to be lifting your heels.

[@turmoilinthecytoplasm]

almost!

[@tenispro81]

Appalling form even the “correct” one is horrendous

[@OAMLLMAO]

NONONO!!! It’s legs body arms, arms body legs. Idk what you’re doing trying to give advice with form like that lmao

[@franzhulk2947]

You need back glute and calv stretching also strengthening your tibialis. you´re reach is to low, thats why even in the correct form your heel comes up.

[@mcquadextx]

All I will say...watch Olympic rowing. No depth in this, it's as if you are restricting yourself. No power at all.

[@Cam-sf7me]

Is it just me, but as rower, the first one looked wrong. I think she needs to bend her back more

[@alinkakabaeva]

Exactly. Both are wrong. Legs join too early. Back injury guaranteed.

[@valeriamarrerodiaz1731]

no! thatll just hurt more. my back hurts

[@anneke_yep2407]

@@valeriamarrerodiaz1731I could feel it 😭

[@vicentetopp2645]

Partially right, but she needs to be at the catch position at quarter slide, she reaches the catch position nearing the catch, which is wrong.

[@TerryTheTetrach]

Starting from backstops: 1:hands away 2:body rock over as far as possible with straight back 3:legs until shins are vertical 4:catch 5:legs back to backstops (staying rocked over) 6: body rock back 7:arms

[@longdang9996]

My back hurts watching the first one. Her hips are stiff as hell. I doubt she can keep that form for more than 15 minutes.

[@nsh3848]

كم اسوي

[@odettg9106]

I guess some don't do it because we don't know how to use it,but it's more because we have back problems that we can't fix 😏

[@lucatristan491]

☝️🤓 we’ll actually, you need to bend the hips when you have your arms away and having a straight back won’t let you have a long stroke

[@GX5-o6r]

Shins have to be 90 degrees and body comes before recovery

[@badkitty7711]

Why can't anyone actually row correctly??? The top example isn't correct either.

[@luciaminy-giani3305]

Also slow down the recovery ratio a bit and make sure to rock over before bending your knees!

[@T-swizzle488]

Your heels lifting does not actually matter. It doesn’t affect your stroke at all.

[@TychoKingdom]

Yeah okay but my machine had feet that swivel. So what am I supposed to do with that.

[@iocsparkfire00]

Your knees shouldn’t be part of rows and you can absolutely lean back into rows for the squeeze

[@JayStanley-y3z]

The back position you disparage, with the slightly curved back, just happens to be the recommended position in the Dutch beginners guide. Interestingly, this same position is seen in their senior national team of both men and women, the winners of 6 gold and 4 silver medals at last year’s (2023) World Championships. The straight back team, the US, who train and test on the Concept 2 rower pictured in your video, brought back a silver and two bronze. Our 8s did not make the podium. In fact the US men’s team has been shut out the last 2 Olympics. The technique you promote works well on C2 ergs but not great on the water.

[@alexvillafranco9030]

Is not bad to round on the extension

[@leo77713]

One above and below technique is bad!

[@knightsminifoundry]

yeah so as a rower neither of these are good. Heels can lift (it literally doesn't matter) and you're breaking body before legs on the recovery.. Focus on the drive and take it slow.

[@archiem894]

You back needs to be a bit more leant forwards ( but still straight )and the shins need to be vertical at the catch

[@smokeymcpot69]

As another commenters have stated it needs to be 11-1 not 12-1 lol

[@jensis.9872]

Super schön, Bewegung Sport gemacht und leben

How do you know, you could be doing it wrong.

legit, 11 and 1

Funny how there are so many videos of the right way and alot are different.

If you put some welly into it it would show better for

great video… thanks!! 😁 also love your hair

[@undeadly1103]

my belly prevents me from doing it wrong 😞

[@Purppusay]

Hey it’s ok I’m on day three of using the rower at the gym I’m 262 pounds I’ve lost close to 100. I’ve always been fascinated with rowing. I decided to try this machine I have a huge stomach I know my form isn’t right which is why I’m watching videos but I love this machine I just say to myself I’ll be able to go down deeper with being able to Bend my knees as the weight comes off. I just hope I don’t injure myself not having the right form lol but don’t worry about your stomach if you want to try it try it

[@bettykandy8393]

Thanks I just started workput in the gym this is so helpful

[@mtb5324]

This still isn’t a very good Rowing technique. If you got into a boat, you wouldn’t do that well

[@theKushKangaroo]

Now add 300 pounds and show me the correct form when shaped like a meatball

[@ibpimpinport]

Yeah both are wrong

[@charlottebenner2595]

Both are incorrect

[@Bhristinaricci]

Crying at this also not being correct

[@chicobronco3658]

Komplett falsch. Wenn der Körper hinten ankommt. Mus auch der Griff schon hinten sein. Und nicht erst die Beine dann die Arme. Ich war mal Ruderer

[@hansez]

Please do not replicate this it’s completely wrong 😂

[@loeynil5476]

Both are wrong, she is nowhere near 11 and 1 o clock

[@maverickmarcellana4249]

Youre doing more work on your lower back than your upper back.

[@dermotbalaam5358]

Overall both are less than good.

[@thomasl88]

The video on top is not right, you need to have your shoulders ahead of your pelvis before rolling

[@thesauce669]

Both are wrong...the first less so

Well there both wrong...
