Video courtesy of CrossFit HQ. During this WOD, try to avoid this common error in rowing, opening the hips too soon. If hips open prematurely, it turns into a only a leg drive and pull of the arms; Meaning the quads are then responsible for the majority of the power/work. Over taxing the quads will make for a very, very challenging effort of heavy squatting while being fatigued. What we want to see is that initial leg drive, followed by an opening of the hip, finishing with a pull of the arms.
