HOW DO I GET A BETTER WORKOUT WHILE ROWING?
y Check how you are situated in the seat - too far forward or back, and you may not be able to hinge/pivot from
the hips as easily.
y Check the position of your feet - where you position your feet determines how easy or hard it is to slide
forward towards the catch. Find a comfortable height (usually around the balls of your feet) and don’t strap in
too tightly!
y Be aware of how you are using the handle - as you start to ‘pull’, remember that the more you push with your
legs and move the handle (without bending your arms), the more power you will be able to generate and
maintain.
y Focus on your form (rather than output, pace, and stroke rate) - as you learn how to row, proper form will help
you maximize the effectiveness of your workout and better enjoy the wide array of rowing that Peloton offers.
