In a boat, the athlete has three points of contact: the seat, foot stretcher, and oar grips. Grips provide feedback to the athlete on technical execution. It is a sensitive connection for the athlete, allowing a “feel” for the water.

The Solstice Challenge doesn’t have to be done non-stop or on one machine type, so it’s a great opportunity to get creative in your workout planning. You can even include on water rowing or on snow skiing if either of those are available to you. Continue Reading ›
