Aerobic conditioning in rowing is a key physical attribute for success in the boat, because it gives the rower the ability to maximally perform throughout each race and through each round of every competition. This is why we have identified it and provided programmes to develop your aerobic threshold.

 

Our aerobic programmes are designed to develop your endurance by increasing your maximum oxygen capacity, which then allows you to perform higher levels of skill when fatigued. This will then transfer in to the boat where you can maintain a higher stroke rate for longer.

 

The aerobic conditioning programmes are perfect for two phases of your training cycle, at the beginning as part of your general conditioning phase and also as part of your pre and during competition phase of training, to maintain a high level of endurance.
