Excellent. Started rowing several months ago and am hooked. I have watched a number of videos, but this is one is most informative and concise I have watched.
I did crew in college, but wow, great review of rowing machine technique. I didn't even realize this existed on you tube :). For those who haven't, most gyms have rowing machines---they are a great workout for the back, core, legs, and arms :). You definitely need music, talk show/pod cast, or something to listen to, because the back and forth motions really are boring. I would recommend to keep up your motivation, don't do long sessions on a rowing machine. Consider it a great HIIT workout so go intense but for short periods of time. A ten minute session can be a great workout if you are cranking it a bit.
Thank you for the side angles while explaining foot positions .. I used to have really uncomfortable foot positioning and couldn’t figure out what I was doing wrong
Fantastic video, thanks for posting. Looking forward to getting back into the rowing machine again. It's literally been almost 10 years! Wish me luck! :)
Hey Morgan. thanks for sharing. I know people who end up with lower back pain after rowing. Is there maybe something in their technique? Is there a stretch or warm up they should be doing.
It could be a lot of stuff. Low back pain can be anything from a systemic weakness in the low back to tight hips, tight glutes, tight hamstrings. Their technique could be wrong. It could also just be that they are USING their back so their back gets fatigued and they're mistaking that sort of discomfort for the pain that means they're doing something wrong. It's really hard to say without knowing them and knowing their situation and watching them row. That being said warming up and stretching is typically a good idea before any exercise. You can also do specific strengthening exercises for the low back. I hope this helps.
You're gonna get a LOT of comments from technique purists about knees bending early. But - the point of the knees is that it's usually a sign of pulling on the straps with the feet, and can cause inconsistent body angles as you get into the catch. Neither of which seems to happen with you. And, you don't get records with rubbish! So ignore the comments about your technique. Your description of the how to row is what matters, and it was spot on.
I was wondering what was I doing wrong. It just didn't feel right, even with my arms and legs. Thanks for video. I watched it even at the gym and practised slowly first until I got it spot on and gradually increased speed. Now it felt better and could feel it working too on my body. I needed this! It was so simple to follow, you just get down to it to just do it. Cheers for video!
It seems to me that engaging arms while the legs are still pushing is counterproductive, as then the arms are working against the force produced by the legs, and they'll fatigue much more quickly. I've always understood that it's legs transitioning to back transitioning to arms; basically strongest to weakest as the velocity goes from zero to maximum. Also, the hands dropping after they pass forward of the knees, to minimise shoulder fatigue, was never discussed, but it was clearly shown in the video.
Yes, it can be too much info to talk about EVERY single thing. This was meant to be a really solid explanation for people but not get into every possible tip. Thanks for the feedback!
Very informative. What model/style of OnCloud shoes are those? I'd like to try them in Men's variant if they have them. Are they also good for running and general floor work?
@@progression_decibel You're welcome. I looked up and the Cloudmonster is Unisex and would be good for an Orange Theory workout. Unless you live next to one of our facilities in which case, join us. I'm teasing OT is great.
@@progression_decibel It would be. We're good, but I don't think we can ask you to make an 80 minute commute regularly.Three day weekend in Athens though? You definitely have to swing through.
That's not your fault, we haven't uploaded it yet. There IS a video about how the screen works. As soon as the Damper video goes up, I'll link it here for you.
If you have an opportunity check with an actual rowing coach regarding when to introduce the body swing. The body swing and the arms should be the most dynamic part of the drive. If you bring on the body swing too early you are actually lowering the handle speed and missing out on brining your split down by 2-5 seconds per stroke. Just my humble opinion.
Thank you for sharing. You seem like you know what you're talking about. I absolutely agree that in-person lessons that are custom to your needs and reacting to your issues would be amazing and useful and of course outside the scope of a 7 minute long YT video. UNLESS you're trying to say that she's not an "actual rowing coach" in which case we can fight.
@ I am a competitive rower, have coached beginners as well as competitive athletes. At the same time I don’t want to be too critical of this short video. There are many levels of technique but one of the common problems for many rowers is starting the body swing too early. When our quads take on the first and heaviest load of the drive they need to be free to work efficiently. The body swing involves engaging the glutes and hamstrings so if we engage those muscles early in the drive they are countering what the quads are doing - the end result is that we slow the drive = higher split (slower boat speed) and all we needlessly make things harder on our legs. But this is getting into high level technique.
Any explanation as to why I get anterior shoulder pain while rowing (just one side). It starts at about 3 minutes into the session. Could it be impingement? Perhaps a longer width handle would work, although the handle is about 12 inches long.
@@CoreBlendTraining When I do dumbbell lateral raises, slightly, but I only use about 5 pounds with strict controlled form, no swinging. Years ago, I used to do the Versa Climber and developed the same thing, and now currently, with rowing. These both have in common a narrow handle on which to grip and execute the repetitive motion.
@@srstevesn1984 It could obviously be a lot of different things, and diagnosing something over the internet is risky (both because it's hard and also because I'm not a doctor and this is not medical advice). I would get with a massage therapist and get them to work on your pec minor, anterior delt, and upper back and see if anything is abnormally tight. Then if there's a tight spot let them work on opening it up. If nothing there...then I would go to a PT.
Great video! Trying to find the other rowing videos on how to use the damper but can’t find it?! Is there a link please? Would love to learn more on how to use it 🙏
I think lots of rowing coaches have issues with you start using your back to early in the stroke. Normaly you want the rower to push further with the legs before you ingage your back. Just an reflection from some that have been rowing for 45 years, but still with extrem interest in how rowing tecnic develop during this time.
@@KrispyNuggetBoutique It's possible that he was criticizing her, but I chose to see it as just another way accomplish a good stroke. But, generally people are pretty nice to us on this channel, so maybe I've let my guard down.
@@CoreBlendTraining I don't think he meant any harm by it, but I think every young(ish) female in sports could write you a trilogy of books with stories of the times a middle aged man wanted to teach them how to do their sport.
I'm looking forward to showing this to my daughter. She's only 5 but loves to hang out while I row in the gym and jumps on to get her 100-300 m fun row in, then ask what all the numbers mean. She'll like to see another woman crushing it on the rower
Sorry to hear that. Assuming you've tried stretching it, I'd start doing some hip flexor strengthening work. Seeing an actual PT that can diagnose you would be smart. Diagnosing pain over the internet is really hard (and outside of my scope).
I have often thought that there is a common issue with rowing coaches and it's a complete overload of technical information. Like 10 coaching points per minute, all described in incredible detail. No silent demonstration to start (visual learning), followed by (initially) 3-4 main coaching points, ideally presented with clear concise explanations. I would not have a clue what to do after watching most rowing coaching videos. It's a highly complex movement when reduced to the minutiae, but rowing coaches would do well to work out how to make sessions far more basic and relatable for the inexperienced rower.
That's so kind of you. Yes, we worked hard to make this approachable to someone that doesn't have dreams of Olympic glory and just wants to know how to row for exercise efficiently. Really appreciate the encouragement and feedback!
I never set the resistance higher then 3. But I still get a tremendous work out. Is that okay Or should I Increase resistance. I am a very fit 64 yr old.
@@bartrobinson2103 So we have another video coming soon (not sure where it's at in the editing process) that dives into the damper setting. Essentially, it's not EXACTLY "resistance" as moving it up higher will allow you to get more distance on every pull. If you're getting a good workout, you absolutely don't have to change anything, but it would probably behoove you to try different setting and see what works well for you during different workouts. A 100 meter sprint might feel much better on a higher damper. As Morgan says in the video, if you're ever wrong about the damper setting you can always adjust it and continue on.
@@Sam_is_everywhere In the video when you see me actively rowing, I am where I like to be and find the most effective. So I think that I am not leaning too far back. That being said, I am not everyone. It is possible that I am leaning back farther than other people can or should. For a novice, I would suggest mimicking my technique and then as they gain more experience, they could adjust their technique as their experience grows. I would relax my shoulders more on a longer effort when I had more time. On a 500 or 1K (where I perform best) I don’t have time to relax. When I stretch it out to a 5 or 10K I do what you’re referencing to save my shoulders. Hope this helps.
That's a really good question. At the risk of offending people, it is originally practice for actual boat rowing in the Olympics. However, there are enough people that compete in it that there are some PHENOMENAL athletes that are never getting in a boat. You'll also have people that really care about how to do this for their Hyrox or Crossfit competitions. Does that help?
To be fair, raising the arms during the recovery like she did in the "don't do this" demo is definitely wrong and the opposite of what you'd do in a boat. Her "this is the right way" demo strokes had some lowering of the arms during the recovery, which is like what you'd do in a boat.
@@psb217 point taken! Its an obvious fitness machine designed to mimic the real thing and comes pretty damn close! This thing kicks my ass in the gym usually post workout torture for thee ol'ticker. I can only assume that's why skynet would think to bring it up on my feed. lmao... There was actually some guy during the lockdowns who made the "Guinness World Record for rowing only about 10 minutes at a RIDICULOUS high interval. Something like a constant 1300+ RPM, which is Insane. Besides jump rope this form of exercise is hands down only for the strong! Which is why in most gyms near me they sit idle. lol
@@CoreBlendTraining Haha, yeah, no worries-that it did! But I think I'll be laying low from my gym for a bit. All this time, I thought I had the rowing motion down, you know, releasing the handle as if I were actually paddling a canoe or something. Turns out, I’ve been so sure about doing it completely wrong! Now, I think I also got to find a masterclass for the ski machine, oh man, it better not be same story😄
Hello dear Morgan ..i think You are also leaning back ..a little to much ...its only my opinion ..ive learned to lay back about 5 to 10 degrees...thanks a lot for your informative video witk lovely regards from germany Wolfgang❤😊
@ I participated To a World Championship in Paris. I had a very tough coach. Knees are the last to bend. For everyone. Bending knees in advance quit power to the stroke. Arms hips knees/ knees hips arms. Other coaches teach like this. I don’t know if it’s correct, I’m foreigner. Chains super straight is important as well. The chain shouldn’t meet the knees .
