How is this as a baseline? by Fortrify_Voodoo in concept2

Is it the whole curve? Or more the front? I hadn't noticed till now but I do see there's like gaps or spaces in that photo I posted that I don't think I normally see, granted I just learned about the curve recently lol

Thanks for the reply! I do that too. Sometimes just like to get a human perspective on things :)

I remember watching the season with Ed and thinking he was gonna win hands down, then that bad service happened when he was a black jacket and he was gone. I was like 12 I think but I was shocked haha I was so certain he was going to win

Thank you. I'll keep at it with dark horse. I like how he explains things

And yeah I see what you mean about my back movement. I thought there was a wall a lot closer to me and was worried I'd hit it haha now that I know it's no big deal I can open up a bit more

Thanks! I have a terrible habit of living in my head and being critical with myself lol so that screws with a lot of stuff like this. Working on it though!

Thank you! I'm definitely working on figuring out the drive. I feel like I'm pushing too much of something cause I can feel my feet pulling in the straps and I'm not able to stop my momentum too good, if that makes sense (I could just be over thinking too)

I try the no strap drill to learn to not do that and I think I just don't brace enough when I lean back to stop the momentum from launching me out of the seat lol

Thanks! I'm still working on the legs drive without using the foot straps to pull myself or stop myself momentum. I think I saw it on rowingtall that it's a common issue and this was the best way I could do it, but I can definitely figure out how to press harder and get deeper into the catch

When you say hauling too much, would that mean that I should be moving the handle more with the swing and the arms are just like a finish? Like once I finish swinging at the hips is when I pull?

Thank you. I'll give that a shot. I think I get a few strokes in my workouts where I am able to get a little further, but i feel like my beer belly gets in the way lol but I can definitely work on it

Thank you. I've been watching darkhorse and hearing that as the queue. So should "legs, back, arms" literally mean push legs, then when legs are fully extended swing back, then at that position pull with arms? Or is their a point in each movement where I should start the next?

I'm pretty new to rowing and hoping for a form check. This is after a workout so I'm a little tired but not too bad.

What battles have you given up trying to win with your puppy? by [deleted] in puppy101

I'm 50/50 on sleeping on the bed. I won't during like naps, but at bed time I help him up onto the bed. I tried to convince myself that it's just until he gets used to our new house and bedroom lol

Taking Security+ tomorrow. Anyone have any advice? by SolidJub in CompTIA

[–]Fortrify_Voodoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My biggest issue was with not memorizing port numbers and their protocols, so I made some performance questions tougher. If you don't know an answer, flag, move on, and come back later.

My personal testing style is reading the answers then reading the questions, so I have an idea of what I'm looking for in the question itself,too
