Drills for beginners on the ergo

In this video, Ken takes us through a series of exercises to help beginners with their posture and sequence on the ergo. This video is especially useful for all newcomers to the sport of rowing and their coaches.

The posture and the sequence of the rowing stroke is one of the hardest parts to grasp, and to a beginner, the movement feels very unnatural. For this reason, it is especially important to take it slow to start with and with a keen eye observing. If a beginner attempts to row on the rowing machine without guidance, they will develop many bad habits which will be hard to break down the track.​
