CORRECT ROWING GUIDE

Over Reaching
INCORRECT
The body stretches too far forward. The shins may be
past vertical. The head and shoulders tend to drop
towards the feet. The body is in a weak position for
the stroke.
SOLUTION
The shins are vertical. The body is pressed up to the
legs. The arms are fully extended and relaxed, body
tilted slightly forward. This position should feel
comfortable.
Rowing with Arms Bent
INCORRECT
The user starts the stroke by pulling with the arms
rather than pushing with the legs.
SOLUTION
The user starts the stroke by pushing the legs and
bracing the back with the arms fully extended and
relaxed.
Bent Wrists
INCORRECT
The user bends their wrists at any time through
the stroke.
SOLUTION
Always row with flat wrists through the entire stroke.
