Wrightstown, PA – December 13th, 2009 (35 min. West of  Princeton 40 min. North of Philly)

This comprehensive one day seminar is designed for athletes and coaches at all levels, who are interested in improving their individual or team’s performance.  This event includes a comprehensive power point lecture on strength training, and how flexibility and strength imbalances will affect each individuals rowing performance.

  • Power point lecture (morning): Will include anatomy and structural imbalances as related to rowing, and how imbalances affect rowing and lifting performance.
  • Power point lecture (afternoon): Will include the bio-mechanics of strength training and rowing, and will discuss how the two can be directly correlated with proper implementation.
  • Strength Training: Hands-on review of bio-mechanics and lifting technique in the gym with class participation, including key points and safe effective exercises instruction.
  • Hands-on instruction:  How to identify individual athlete inflexibility, and explanations of why they will limit rowing performance.
  • Hands-on instruction:  How to perform basic stretching techniques that improve rowing mobility and performance.
  • Participation on the ergometer/weights:  Demonstration of specific exercises that directly tie in strength training to the rowing stroke.
  • Discussion of how to set up your gym or training area.
  • Each participant will receive a copy of the Power Point lecture(s)

Included in this one day clinic are several hands on teaching sessions which will assist in learning proper lifting techniques and related bio-mechanics, as well as demonstrations on how imbalances can be corrected.  Emphasis will also be placed on how correct strength training and flexibility exercises can improve power development of the rowing stroke.  We will also review the basics of sport nutrition as it relates to recovery from training, and summarize the concepts covered in the clinic.  This clinic will set a strong foundation for future strength training and remove myths often heard about its safety.  This class is ideal for those looking to improve overall performance and learn how to train far more effectively.

Class size is limited to (8) participants for the all day clinic to allow for effective hands on coaching instruction for each individual.  In addition spot are also available to attend the lecture(s) only.
