  • Focus on Technique

For both Novice & Vets, today’s Rowing WOD is a chance to take a step back and focus on technique.  For those that are recovering from the big game, it’ll be a good way to get back into training this week. Each 1k of the 5k should be spent working on a different technique fix. By the end of the workout you will have been able to work on five technique points.

There is no fixed split or stroke rate today, but you should be working at a Perceived Rate of Exertion of about 80 – 85%. Just take the time to get good strokes in, and work out some kinks.  See if you can grab a friend to chat with throughout the piece.  Training with others is a lot more fun and showing someone a new sport is awesome!

Post what you focused on for technique and if you were able to share rowing with anyone!
