🚣♂️💪 Why Good Posture is a Game Changer in Indoor Rowing! 🚣♀️💪 Ever wonder why coaches stress so much on maintaining good posture when you're on the rowing machine? Here’s why it’s not just about looking good—it's about making every stroke count! Power Up Your Row: Proper alignment from your hips to your shoulders allows you to unleash the full potential of your leg drive, transferring that energy smoothly through your core to your arms. Breathe Easy: Sitting tall opens up your chest, allowing for deeper breaths. More oxygen means more fuel for those intense sessions! Stay Injury-Free: Avoid the aches and pains! A strong, straight back prevents common rowing injuries, keeping you off the sidelines and on your game. Efficient Movement: Good posture is key to a fluid rowing technique, helping you glide through the water (or feel like it, at least) with less effort and better results. Beyond the Machine: Practicing good posture on the rower builds habits that translate into daily life, promoting overall health and preventing long-term issues like back and neck pain. So next time you strap into that rowing machine, straighten up and row strong. Your body will thank you for it—today and down the line! 🌟 #Rowing #FitnessTips #IndoorRowing #PostureMatters #HealthAndWellness #FitForPurpose #fitness #personaltrainer #education #gym #workout #fit #training #exercise #muscle What type of Personal Trainer would you be?

As any seasoned paddler knows, a well-rounded training regimen is essential for improving your kayaking performance. Training for kayaking involves a combination of strength, endurance, and balance: 💪 Strength training Focus on exercises that target your core, back, shoulders, and arms to generate power and stability in your strokes. Examples include rows, pull-ups, and planks. 🏃♂️ Endurance workouts Cross-training activities like cycling and swimming can improve your cardiovascular fitness and stamina for sustained paddling sessions. 🤸♂️ Balance exercises Incorporate activities like yoga, balance boards, or stability ball exercises to enhance your balance and stability, crucial for maintaining control on the water. Increasing strength and building endurance not only enhances your paddling performance but also reduces the risk of fatigue-related injuries. Improving balance contributes to better stability and control, especially in challenging conditions.

Supporting the development of recreational to elite runners, cyclists and multisport athletes. I also increase revenue for businesses and coaches through strength and conditioning education for endurance purposes.
Familiarity trumps it all. The last thing we want to do is waste time, so I don't: - Include exercises "just because" - Swap exercises for the sake of swapping exercises - Switch strength training programmes up each week The odd thing is that this is where many go wrong. ↓ "Shiny object syndrome" They chase the newness. However, the RIGHT newness at the RIGHT time? That's a different story. That's what will progress your strength training and help you get the rewards on the bike and on the trails that you want. So when I modify an athletes strength training plan, I do it with purpose. Whilst it's great to be including resistance training to support your endurance, a solid, familiar and progressive training plan is where it's at. It's your chance to: - Work to different tempos - Work with different loads - Work to different rep ranges - Work to different ranges of motion - Maximize the efficacy of a strength exercise After all, this is what strength training for endurance sports is about: Improving your endurance performance. If you're looking to avoid "Shiny object syndrome" and improve your running and cyclist. Our Endurance Revolution 10 week challenge is a GREAT place for you to start. 🔗 Link in comments below. ----- ♻️ Please repost to help support fellow runners, cyclists and triathletes with their performance and follow me, Emma O'Toole, for more content like this. #running #cycling #triathlon #performance #challenge #familiarity #endurance #strengthtraining

The challenge in helping an athlete (especially a Masters Athlete) improve their running form/mechanics is there's no magic single exercise or cue that will make a runner more efficient. It is not a simple process. Have you heard of the Theory of Specificity? It states that you need to train your body specific to the demands of the activity you are trying to improve. Have you seen the exercises we are told to do? How specific are planks and squats? How does sidestepping with bands help us be better runners? Lunges get closer but they miss the mark because it does not mimic the running "gait." AND THERE'S THE KEY. You have to work muscles in a way that more closely mimics the running gait When we get injured the normal chain of events in an efficient runners gait have been disrupted because of an issue somewhere in the body. When there is a disruption, we move differently. We get out of sync, and get hurt. So, the goal of rehab should be to produce a more powerful, efficient, effective gait. IS ANYONE DOING THIS? Not many. Your PT wants to resolve your pain. Your trainer wants to make you stronger but is anyone trying to make your gait more efficient and effective to keep you injury-free? Yes, there is a small group of people learning the techniques (me) to help train you to get back to running and stay healthy. If you want to learn more, and how I can help you get running in a more healthy way, DM me, go to runners-hotline.com or send me an email to charles@runners-hotline.com. #mastersrunner #running #runtraining #runtraining #runner #runners #runhealthy #startrunning #runfast #runningform #runforhealth #runcoach #runnershelpingrunners

🚣♂️💨 Did you know your rowing posture can significantly impact how you breathe? When you're tucked in at the catch position during indoor rowing, your abdomen compresses against your thighs, limiting the movement of your diaphragm. This makes it tougher to take deep breaths using diaphragmatic breathing, which is essential for effective and efficient oxygen intake. 👉 Maintaining proper posture isn't just about form; it's crucial for maximizing your breathing potential and enhancing overall performance. Next time you're on the rower, pay attention to how you're sitting and breathing—your endurance and effectiveness might just get a significant boost! #Rowing #FitnessTips #ExerciseScience #IndoorRowing #BreathingTechniques #StayHealthy #FitForPurpose #fitness #personaltrainer #education #gym #workout #fit #training #exercise #muscle What type of Personal Trainer would you be?

Are you training for a running event this winter? Or maybe you just enjoy running and want to improve your ankle strength? Give these 3 exercises a go! Heel drop 👟 1️⃣ Use the bottom step of a staircase. 2️⃣ Place your feet on the step so that your toes are supporting your weight and your heels are off the edge. 3️⃣Slowly lower your heels toward the floor. 4️⃣ Bring your heels back to neutral and repeat. Do this 10-15 times and if you are finding them easy give the single leg alternative a go! If you need to, use the wall or bannister for balance. Toe walks 🦶 Toe walks are a simple as they sound! 1️⃣ Rise up onto your toes and take a few steps forwards. 2️⃣You can increase the difficulty by using uneven ground. ❗️Fancy a challenge?! Measure the distance you completed on your first try and then try and beat it next time! Single leg balance 🦵 1️⃣Start by standing on one leg. 2️⃣ Make sure you have engaged your core for this one! 3️⃣ Hold your balance for as long as you can. You can make it harder by closing your eyes. (You can even do it when you’re brushing your teeth). How did you get on? Let us know which exercise is your favourite! #MoorePerformance #balance #ankle #anklestrength #run #runner #running #runningadvice #runningtips #training #halfmarathon #marathon #marathontraining #greatnorthrun #cambridgehalf #cambridgehalfmarathon #londonmarathon #injury #recovery
