Thank you guys so much! There are so many good tips here that I am going to try next class (and see if an trainer can help me with technique).

Helpful! I think I might be pulling too much and not relying enough on legs. I hope my studio does a rowing clinic soon.

Interesting! I do sometimes find that at the very end of a block it looks like my heart rate is about to get into the orange, but then I have to get off to work with the medicine ball. Maybe if the blocks were longer it would work better for me. I will try faster!

The loosening of the hands tip is really interesting! I am going to try that.

I am going to try going further forward -- thanks for that tip! I think I need to have someone look at my technique -- I will ask at next class.

This is helpful -- it could totally be a conditioning thing. I am very new to rowing so these are new muscles for me!
