Leg to back connection. The power phase of rowing and sculling is a legs and back connection plus an arm draw. One of the simplest ways to improve your power is to get more proficient at linking your leg drive to your back swing. Our podcast this week covered this in detail for you to practice. Key points The power of the legs has to be connected to the oar handle Leg drive must directly move the oar handle If you drive and don’t move the handle = shooting the slide or bum-shoving If you move the handle and don’t move the legs = no power This is often described as the hardest part of the rowing stroke to train because of your gluteal muscle amnesia or lack of glute activation. #rowingtechnique #worldrowing #mastersrowing #rowinglife #rowingbible #rudern #aviron https://www.instagram.com/p/CVKCg8jlnaQ/?utm_medium=tumblr
