Re-Live Zoom Saturday Class of April 4, 2026

This is another one of these basic “row-like-a-pro” sessions, where I slowly started to prepare my athletes for a different approach. It worked well, though I will need to repeat it.

Video Analysis of the Mens Boat Race 2026

Rowing Racing

The 2026 Mens Boat Race was spectacular in many ways. Cambridge probably had one of their fastest crews in a very long time, and Oxford still closed the gap compared to last year. From the heroic push despite being behind to the rough conditions and their beautiful rowing style, this race had it all. In

Optimum handle height at the catch helps with lat extension into the finish – Sat Class of March 28, 2026

Re-Live Online Rowing Classes

How to keep your arms stretched and passive at the catch – Re Live Saturday Zoom, March 21, 2026

Re-Live Online Rowing Classes

A lot of rowers bend their arms at the catch, lift their shoulders, pivot their upper bodies, just to find connection. Rather than “forcing” that connection, you have to let it “occur”. This session focuses on that, and it will not be the last one.

+20 Watts with looser upper torso – Re-Live Zoom Class Feb 28, 2026

Re-Live Online Rowing Classes

This time we worked on the looser upper torso again. It is so important that I will prioritise this topic for the next few sessions as well, each time in a bit of a different context and with different wordings. One of our athletes said after the session that he had gained 10 Watts during […]
