We’re back for a quick episode to talk about Will’s new book, “Rowing Stronger, Second Edition.” The first edition was Rowperfect UK’s best-selling e-book since 2016, and after 3+ more years of coaching, learning, writing, and talking with rowers and rowing coaches all over the world, Will has produced a second edition with revised and all-new content. Blake and Joe contributed guest chapters, and join this episode to talk about movement assessments and kettlebell training for rowing, and information and discussion that didn’t make the final cut of the new book.

Swan Creek Rowing Club

The Swan Creek Rowing Club is named for the Swan Creek, a leading tributary flowing through Lambertville, New Jersey, to the Delaware River. Our club was founded in 1992 by individuals interested in promoting rowing in the area. Members are from diverse backgrounds and vary from novice rowers to those who have maintained a lifelong interest in rowing. While many gained their experience in college we also have a good amount who showed up for Learn to Row and stayed. We share a common bond in our love of the river.

Hammerfest Indoor Race, Feb. 23:

Have a love-hate relationship with the erg? Looking to set a 2k time for spring season? Just looking to get some hardware? Regardless of your reason, get ready to drop the hammer and kick it into overdrive with 500s, 1000s, and 2000s. There's also going to be fun stuff such as coxswain races, relays, and a quick Learn to Erg (to get your spouse/parents/friends to sweat a bit as well).
