Thank you for all the good comments ! Please, don't forget that the rower who was doing the demonstration at that time was a beginner rower and by doing this video I wanted to show you that you can use the rowing machine as a beginner without any problems. I was asked by many different rowing clubs, TV programs and GYMs around the World if they could use this video for helping the athletes and the general public understand how to row on the rowing machine because of the very simple demonstration and explanation of the rowing technique on the rowing machine. Enjoy it and keep on rowing, because rowing is one of the greatest exercises in the World !

Thanks you for making and posting this video. I've enjoyed rowing at the gym for a few years now and have decided to hire one at home and give up the gym membership. I picked up some tips from this. The main improvement has been generating more power per stroke and lowering the stroke rate giving me better times and more endurance.

+Trevor de Koekkoek , the rower that is doing the demo is a 100% novice, so he is great for this demonstration. If you start judging the rowing technique on the erg to the one on the water, you would be doing a mistake. Don't forget that this video has only one purpose - to show a proper technique on how to row on the rowing machine for people all over the World. The video has been used to teach people in the GYMs and in different fitness TV shows all over the World, so they don't get injured or look funny when rowing on the ERGO. Most of the high performance athletes in rowing have their own technique on the ERG, so when they do testing on the ERG, they can do their PB. Many of these athletes don't look so nice on the ERG, but they pull very, very hard and in a way they feel most comfortable, so they could do their PB. That's it. Cheers.

I want to send my best wishes to the rowers and the people from Japan, who are having a very hard time now.

Would love to see an instruction video how to row for people who have back issues (lower back pain or even with herniated disc injury) I think the only difference is that you don't lean back and try to keep a straight back during the finish, but it would be nice to see an example.

As someone already commented. All fitness instructors need to watch this. I see such poor technique being taught to people who get no reach pull just with their arms. This video helped a lot with my own technique, I had no idea I was over-compressing so much. Good rocking over is essential and you don't have to have a perfectly straight back (always gets me tired).

pbcmbeez22 -Thank you for your comments. Please don't forget that we are talking about technique on the Ergo. I want to ask you the following question - If your legs are straight, what would be the direction of your power curve UP or DOWN? At the point when your legs are straight and you start pulling with your back your power curve will be going UP or DOWN. In my opinion if you put your legs straight and only after that you pull with your back you will have two power picks stroke LEGS and BODY.

Hi there. It is not normal to use so much hamstrings but then again you are very new to this machine and for sure you are trying harder. Once you get better and more relaxed, then you will not use them so much. There is a natural slope on the rail on this machine, so try to use more if it when you go for the next stroke and less of the hamstrings. Have fun.

@TheFlinglish Hi there. You should try to keep your back straight (upper and lower back) .The slight curve that you see on the back of the Olympic rowers is not from not having the back of these athletes straight but from the position of the shoulders and the arms that are straight forward and the size of the chest that creates the visual illusion that the back is curved. We can't change the anatomy of our back but we have to try to keep the strong straight position of our back when we row.
