When done correctly, the rowing stroke recruits over 85% of the muscles in your body. The motion requires the application of force and acceleration in a repetitive, maximal and smooth movement. The rowing stroke also enhances proprioception, vital for athletes and daily tasks. Proprioception involves sensing body position and movement, crucial for balance and coordination. Rowing engages multiple muscle groups, improving body awareness and control, leading to better sports performance and reduced injury risk. Additionally, it provides a low-impact workout, strengthening muscles, improving heart health, and benefiting overall fitness for people of all ages and fitness levels. Learn to perform the rowing stroke correctly in the post and video below- https://lnkd.in/gdrMqifB #rowing #rowingstroke #fitness #personaltrainer #indoorrowing

Here are 3 tips to maximize your rowing workout... 1. Push, Don't Pull: Begin by pushing through your feet, right down from the toes. Consider removing your feet from the straps for a more intense push. 2. Follow the Path: Maintain a sequence in your movement - arms, torso, then legs. This technique helps bring you smoothly back towards the rower’s front. 3. Straight Chain Path: Keep the rowing chain on a straight trajectory as you pull. At the end of your stroke, try attracting your shoulder blades a bit to engage your back muscles effectively. Remember, rowing is about technique as much as strength! #DistrictOneFitness #districtonegym #gymdublin #rathmines #walkinstown #irishfitfam #dublin6 #RowingWorkout #FitnessTips #TotalBodyWorkout

🎯 Program Design Tip: Progressing from Cyclical to Mixed Modal When transitioning athletes from cyclical work (like rowing or running) to mixed modal training, focus on maintaining efficiency under fatigue Start by layering simple movements (e.g., air squats or kettlebell swings) after cyclical intervals, ensuring they can hold form. Gradually increase complexity and intensity as their capacity improves. Smooth progression builds both aerobic endurance and movement quality. #OPEXFitness #SkillProgression

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.
2 reasons why I like using a box for goblet squats. Using a box can significantly enhance your training by allowing you to work with varying ranges of motion. Here’s how: 1️⃣ Technique Improvement: The box serves as a reference point for squat depth. ✗ A lot of runners and cyclists chase the weight and sacrifice form. ✓ The box helps you maintain a range where your technique remains strong. ✓ Gradually lowering the box height allows for safe progression whilst increasing your range of motion and allowing for load to be progressively increased. 2️⃣ Controlled Partial Squats: We can use the box to work to partial ranges of motion depending on where you are in your season. ✗ A strength program which doesn't evolve and adapt to your season will not only leave a lot of performance gains on the table, but also may derail your "A" race/event. ✓ This helps keep your body fresh and firing without inducing excess fatigue. An example would be the inclusion of ¼ squats before a key race. ↓ Do you use boxes as a reference point for your squats? ----- Please repost to support fellow endurance athletes with their strength training and follow me, Emma O'Toole, for more content like this. #running #cycling #triathlon #squats #strengthtraining #endurance

THE IMPORTANCE OF PROPER HYDRATION AND FUELING IN ROWING WORKOUTS As we dive into our intense rowing sessions, it’s crucial to remember that workouts will often last from one hour up to three hours. To ensure peak performance and safety, hydration is key. Here are some essential tips to keep in mind: HYDRATION GEAR: Water Bottles: Avoid metal water bottles as they can make noise and bounce around in the boat. Instead, opt for water bottles with soft padding. This padding prevents… https://lnkd.in/gA3iMVy9

STOP Unnecessarily Combining Exercises ❗️ “But I’m conditioning” You can improve your cardiovascular & muscular endurance in more efficient ways….like running and lifting adequately heavy weights 😂 If you want to become efficient at specific movement patterns, trying to do so when you’re gasping for air & shaky is a great way to get injured INSTEAD; just super set the exercises so you can challenge the muscles enough to elicit growth and gain strength in that movement pattern Then do conditioning via running, rowing, skipping, whatever other way you want #musclebuilding #musclegain #fattofit #fatlosstips #fatlossjourney
