“You can always become better” – Tiger Woods
Practicing good rowing technique is important to maximizing energy output and minimizing inefficient movement. There are two parts to the rowing stroke, the drive and the recovery, but the movements are blended together to make the stroke smooth and continuous. There should be no stopping at any point in the stroke. However, when learning proper stroke technique, a momentary pause can be helpful after FINISHING the DRIVE just before the RECOVERY to ensure a complete PULL.

Next to MURPH this one is my favorite! btw, since I mention MURPH I thought you guys should know that 28 June marks four years since Navy SeAL Lieutenant Micheal Murphey, Navy SeAL Petty Officers Danny Dietz, Navy SeAL Micheal Axelson gave their lives in Afghanistan on a botched mission. Now I'm in no place to ask for a workout or for special programming but 28 June I'm doing a full MURPH, body armor and all. Hooyah.
