READY TO ROW?


We take a look at a selection of gym-based equipment that’s able to cater specifically for those training for rowing


Precor AMT Olympic rower Greg Searle (see photo, right) uses Precor’s


Adaptive Motion Trainer (AMT) to top up his training, as it offers an all-over workout and is non-weight bearing, meaning zero impact on his joints. The way the stride works, adapting to the natural movement of the body, also means he can’t over-stretch muscles and risk injury. fitness-kit keyword: precor


Concept2 The Concept2 Indoor Rower used by the British Rowing team


is exactly the same as the ones in your gym. It forms the basis of all the land-based training and testing that the squad does, from short sharp bursts to develop power, through tests over race distances to longer distance work. Meanwhile, British Rowing were also among the fi rst people to purchase the Concept2 SkiErg, which they use for cross- training. Able to monitor power output in a similar way to the Indoor Rower, the squad has even taken its SkiErgs with them on altitude training camps.

Oartec Distributed by WaterRower, the Oartec Simulator replicates the


range of movement and rotation used when in a boat, reproducing the feeling of rowing on the water and encouraging correct technique. Meanwhile, on the Oartec Slider, the user and seat stay in the same position relative to the ground, while the rolling frame is pushed away during the drive and bought back toward the rower during recovery. fitness-kit keyword: waterrower
