Avoid OVER COMPRESSION on the ROWING MACHINE with These Tips
In the video, Olympian and Coach, Luke Walton walks you through what "over compression" is, what causes it, and how to ensure you avoid it while still maintaining free long roll into the front end of the rowing stroke. Over compression is bad, but full compression is still good. So you want to make sure you aren't shortening your stroke when working to prevent over compression. With proper foot position and drills, supplied to you by Coach Walton, you can still roll plenty far into the front end before over compressing. Understanding the dos and don't of compression at the catch is key to creating your most efficient, long, and powerful rowing strokes 00:00 Intro 00:26 What is “Over Compression” on the Rowing Machine? 02:32 Two Main Causes of Over Compression 03:00 Issue One: Poor Set Up After the Finish 04:36 Issue Two: Rower Foot Height Setting Too Low 06:20 Legs Only Rowing Drill for Proper Compression 06:19 Body Over Pause Rowing Drill for Proper Compression 08:15 Drills Work Best with Proper Rower Foot Height Setting 09:44 Over Compression Stresses the Knees and Quads 10:45 NEVER Shorten Your Rowing Stroke to Fix Compression Issues 12:30 Recap and Conclusion Channel Note: These videos, taught by Olympian Luke Walton, can be valuable to anyone new to rowing, rowing with a team/club, anyone looking for rowing machine workouts, training for CrossFit or Hyrox competitions, or anyone who who just wants to understand how to row the “rower” (rowing machine) better.
