So, moving into the summer we will see a shift in the programming to increase the METCON portion to help get that summer body that everyone wants.

To make it happen, not only do you need to work out hard and with high intensity but you also need to look into your nutrition.  Yes, there are many different nutritional programs that will get you there.  Which one is best?  Simple, the one that you can easily follow and stay on and ENJOY.  If you don’t follow it as directed then it’s not for you.

So, we have been noticing some trends on rowing that we want to fix.  Here are some links to help you.  The big errors that we see are

1- Bringing heels up (going too far forward)

2 – Lunging forward at the catch (weak shoulders)

3 – improper sequence

3 – Rowing at too high of a drag factor.
