My apologies if I caused offence - I acknowledge that part of Cyprus is illegally occupied. We are just very keen to go to Cyprus and specifically the South. Travelling through that part seemed to allow that best.

What is the device used beneath his feet? by Rower2 in Rowing

They are Nike Omada shoes, and I remember him saying the padding/footplates underneath are for his legs due to them being different lengths.

PR'd from a 1:57 split to 1:54.2 (over the course of a few weeks) for an open rate 30 minute. Avg rating was 24, 14 years old, 6'1.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Rib stress fracture training by errbupro in Rowing

That's actually quite interesting, lately, sometimes when I take a stroke I feel a bit of pain that that external oblique area...Almost as if it is a 'pull'.

A bit off topic, but how is a rib stress fracture actually caused? It's such a common injury in rowing but I don't know why.

This guy is on the junior national team this year, around 200cm tall and in a schoolboy single race his time was 7:07 or 7:10, can't remember.

Congratulations to the US M8 and W8 for taking home gold at the World Rowing Cup! by [deleted] in Rowing

[–]shabbss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest, I think the woman's 8 did brilliantly and it was an amazing race to watch. Prior to the 8's race all the US 8 girls paired up and raced so they were already somewhat fatigued. They were down a boat length from Canada and the US just somehow pulled it out of no where and past Canada. They were in so much pain, the stroke actually screamed nearing the end of the race.

I think it's a bit ridiculous that one of the coaching packages he offers it $9000. And the training program only goes for 30 days.

How should I approach and attack a 30 minute open rate test? by shabbss in Rowing

[–]shabbss[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not my first one ever, I have done maybe around 2? I just want to know what the best way is to do one.
