Want to make sure that the next few months of running really become those "champion-making instruments"? Try to conduct water exercises indoors. We will start with the first exercise most rowers learn and see if you can get something from the simplest and most common exercises-we think you can do it. Pick Drill Out On the water, Pick Drill-or "arms only" rowing-works on the finish line, especially: how the arm goes through, how a strong and stable core helps maintain the connection, and how a clean release requires you to continue Push your feet. Since these skills are also important to erg, this exercise can be a good way to use familiar water exercises to maintain high erg quality. Why spend time on practice? erg is a very stable platform where you can learn any exercise well, and your exercise execution can benefit a lot from some stability at the time of completion. Starting with a good practice on the erg will also provide constructive attention to your warm-up, just like the first practice on the water outside the pier or on the way to the starting line. Practicing on erg can help you focus on good execution, which can help you get more from the exercise when you return to the water. With Pick Drill, water execution sometimes looks (and feels) more like chopping or swinging in the water; if you are sure you have some connections and draw on the erg, it will improve on the water. Specifically, indoor pickaxe drills can help you focus on keeping the chain level with the floor when pulling your arms, maintain horizontal pressure on the handle, keep your wrists flat at the end of the stroke, and maintain a good connection between the final pull and the seat at the end. Don’t worry about an offset or swaying boat under you, use the “high core” to accelerate the wheels. This will help you gauge how the “correct” amount of retreat used on the erg starts from your posture: leaning your hands on your body , Sit where you want to stay on the water, pay attention to maintaining support on your small back-a strong core makes the rig work. Be sure to sit upright on the seat, let your feet "engage" on the pedals, and push the entire foot away from the heel to the toe. From there, you know the exercise: Use only your arms to row the boat, taking care not to swing your body forward. Keep track of the path your arm takes: the elbows should be pulled out to the sides, while the wrists and forearms should stay flat. This will help keep the chain parallel to the floor and fix people’s tendency to pull too high, too low, or change on the drive. It should feel as if you are moving the wheel steadily, picking it up and accelerating it as it spins, without tearing your arms or "flinging" your shoulders. You may also feel taller and hope to find that you are using some pressure from your feet to establish a good connection with your arms. You should be able to feel a good acceleration even if you don't have a lot of backing up. Usually, people on the erg can start to lie farther than they do on the boat, simply because the design of the erg (with a long chain) allows this. Pick Drill will let you know what a good finish posture on the boat looks like. Tips and add-ons to make it longer: Once you only get that connected rowing arm, keep it as you gradually complete the full stroke, by adding only the backward swing, and then adding some 1/2 or 3/4 slides before Draw the entire slide. Mirror, mirror: Putting a mirror next to you is a good way to train yourself-observing your rowing posture will only help you check whether you are properly leaning back, your shoulders are relaxed, your back is straight, and whether the horizontal chain at the end is good. Pause the beat: When you start the exercise, make a short pause at the end so you can check your tall core and push your feet, or add a pause as you progress to "reset" your posture as needed. Incorporate: If you find this exercise helpful, you can start with each piece and use only a few arms to check yourself; it moves the wheels a bit, starting with a good connection and posture as a good baseline for connection and posture. Do it well and move on: let's face it, this is not an exciting exercise, especially on erg; do some drilling while warming up, between two pieces or while cooling down, do it right, and start Real boating.

We will start with the first exercise most rowers learn and see if you can get something from the simplest and most common exercises-we think you can do it.

On the water, a rhinestone-or "arm only" rowing-works at the end point, especially: how the arm goes through, how a strong and stable core helps maintain the connection, and how a clean release requires you to keep pushing Your feet.

Since these skills are also important to erg, this exercise can be a good way to use familiar water exercises to maintain high erg quality.
