HIGH PERFORMANCE ROWING COACHING
Too many rowers are flying completely blind on how to progress at their rowing.
They’ve got big dreams but only a foggy half-baked idea of how to get there. And their club isn’t helping them in the way they hoped.
Rising through the ranks as a rower is all about compound interest, and it starts with improving on the erg.
Once a rower has an exceptional erg score, breaking into higher boats on their squad is easier. And from there, they can begin to build an impressive rowing resume for themselves through stellar race results.
Each step of this process can be completed MOST QUICKLY when it builds on the previous one. In addition, sequencing a rower’s development in this manner focuses first on the things that are most within their control, AND it mirrors the way college coaches vet their recruits athletically (erg first, then boat placement, then race results).
So naturally, the best way to start this upward spiral is targeted erg training.
When I first start working with a new athlete, this is my approach:
First I learn about the rower’s schedule. How much time do they have? What things in their life besides training are competing for their time? Any extra training must synergize with their other commitments - school, team rowing practice, and other extracurriculars - to give them the biggest bang for their energy and time.
My next priority is to identify what the rower’s specific weaknesses are. Many rowers are hyper-dominant in one category while neglecting the others. The largest and quickest improvements come from eliminating a weakness and turning it into a strength. That’s where I help my athletes unlock LOTS of free speed.
