Video Review

From time to time it can be beneficial to look at yourself on camera.  No we don’t care about the aesthetics or the fashion.  We’re looking to gain feedback and a mental picture.  We’re looking for just one or two cues that might give us a smoother, more powerful stroke.  What’s going right?  What’s going wrong?  What can we do better?

You should be asking yourself, “What do I look like now?  How do I move now? What could use some extra focus and improvement next time?”  Don’t dwell on to many things at a time, just find one or two things that might make your life on the erg or in the boat a little better.  Go work on them.  Then reassess in a couple of weeks.

The Renegade Rowing Club has agreed to help everyone by taking a look at their strokes. If you’d like feedback similar to this, post a 20 second clip of you rowing to YouTube and share it with us in the comments of this post.  I’ll do my best to give you a couple of things to work on!  Here is a video of Erik and what he’s going to work on over the next couple of weeks.

Take a look and share what you might focus on next time you row!

Be A Renegade Challenge

During the month of May we will be competing in the first of many challenges to truly be renegades in life and sport.  Rather than take the easy road and go with the typical norms of society we will hold each other to higher standers and work to be better people and better athletes.  To often we get lazy and take for granted the opportunities we have to make ourselves and others the people we want to be.  The Be A Renegade Challenge is our opportunity to make a change and fight for our true potential.

This week will be a trial week to see who wants to commit to the challenge for the month of May.  Every day there will be a challenge posted on the blog for you to complete and then share your experiences through the comments.  If you’re interested in competing for the Renegade Challenge Cup check out the Be A Renegade Challenge page and start tracking your progress toward becoming a Renegade!

If you would like to become an official challenger for the Renegade Challenge Cup let us know in the comments section of this post.  We’ll gladly add you to the Be A Renegade Challenge page.  

If you want to just check out how the form and challenge works, select Renegade Wannabe under the Name drop down and fill out the form.
