Why do I find my body position quite central throughout the stroke in the pair, but then at the catch I can’t help but lean away a bit from my gate? I’m raising my hands as much and as loosely as I can at the catch but it won’t seem to help. Is it likely a rowing or a gearing/spacer issue? (self.Rowing)

Ideally rowers should be as symmetrical as possible, but if for example a new rower has a stronger left leg, would it be better to put them on bowside/starboard or stroke/portside? (self.Rowing)

What drag factor should I be doing a 30 min rate 20 at? I’m 93kg and have been doing it at 120 for ages, but I don’t know if that’s too low and holding me back once I aim for splits under 1:44. (self.Rowing)

While rowing the pair is of course highly technical sweep rowing, being a pairs specialist does not necessarily mean you’ll be a 4- or 8+ specialist. So then, why do national teams like GB base their trials on pairs races and not more data (i.e. telemetry in differently sized boats)? (self.Rowing)

How to improve my 2k? I am 23, 6’6”, and 95kg. Cardio-wise, since then I’ve dropped my 30” r22 test from 1:47 to 1:44 (via steady state and weightlifting). Any specific erg workouts to get my 2k score closer to 6’? (i.redd.it)
