Rowing Lessons: Advanced Group 2: Training

                Advanced Coastal Rowing: Training

These lessons are for Club Locarno members who wish to improve their technique. Two sessions of two hours each, during which you will learn more about:

• Incorporating dynamic warmup and stretching into your repertoire. Increasing your range of motion can only be a good thing ... like eating oatmeal for breakfast.
• Using the ergometer to improve your fitness.  This can only be a good thing as well, but, using the oatmeal analogy, not as "tasty". Sort of like liver for dinner. Still, numbers don't lie, and these sessions will help you improve those pesky erg-scores.
• Developing on-water training plans for sprints and endurance. "By failing to plan, one is planning to fail": don't let this be you!
• Training in the Wintech Explorer, Double- or Pair-rigged. This is rowing's version of synchronized swimming ... it's harder than it looks! But oh so much fun when you get the hang of it. The smiles on synchronized swimmers tells you all you need to know.

So, bring yourself and a positive attitude to the Club Locarno Rowing shed, at the East end of the Jericho compound, near the Windsure hut.
