Rowing Specific Strength: Phase 2 - Strength

Rowing Specific Strength Training: Phase 2 - Strength

• This is the second phase of the rowing specific strength training series.
• We recommend you start with Phase 1 - Resilience.

Are you looking for a strength plan that increases the force that you can apply against the blade, that increases the speed that you can pull the oar through the water, that increases your stroke length, that improves your rowing technique, and that reduces your chance for injury? If so, this is the strength plan you've been looking for.
