ROW SLOW to GO FAST when rowing. Seriously, it's called "RATIO"

When rowing our goal is to get from A to B in the most effective way possible. In order to do that without spinning our wheels and going at an unsustainable pace we need to focus on maintain ratio This is by balancing a powerful drive with a composed recovery.
Use the recovery for what it is... an opportunity to breathe and prep your body for the next stroke. Try this "exaggerated recovery" drill to help optimize your ratio and find a sustainable balance between the drive and the recovery.

I had to watch this twice. The first time I didn't hear a word you said because I was mesmerised by your incredible arm movements 😆 You know, they are introducing breakdancing at the Paris Olympics. You could give that a shot 😂 Keep it up, bro!

I don't know why I am here. KZbin put this on my mainpage and I started liking it. Do a workout sess for amateur rowers.

This is a great help. Never thought about it like this. Can u do one now at say 2k pace so I can see what it looks like in reality. My problem is I go all out too quickly, then start dying. I simply can’t find a pace that allows me to go at a decent rate, yet still go for long. I need help to find the equivalent of running a 6 minute mile for 5 miles.

So on your stroke in this example how many watts should you be creating, 160 or so?

Why do you curl your hands inward at the end of the drive? Seems like wasted effort and constantly changing hand placement.
