Keep the seat from your feet
This teaching focus emphasizes the "catch" position of the rower sequence. In this position the athlete should be targeting a sound "a frame" created by the legs through the position between the seat of the rower and the foot pads. This position is most optimal for a lower body push to generate force in the drive sequence of the rower. Athletes often bring the seat all the way to their heels, creating an inefficient position to drive from.
Today's intervals are a good chance for us to go hard every work period. It will likely be optimal to increase your damper, choosing a number or two higher than your normal damper setting.
Focus on big, long exhales during your rest period to recover your heart rate as much as possible.
Getting in a good warm-up with some hard efforts will help prime the body to recover quicker between bouts of work.
