@YeenGurley4 @usrowing @arpolk Exaggerated stop at stroke's end looks awful, like a dog on 3 legs

@Rowperfect Read Stuart McGill "Ultimate Back Fitness." His wife is a rower and his advice will save backs.

@rowingwolf7 The Uzbekistan wrestling team used this first

@rowsandall @boston_sculler to ensure a clear view of dwnstrm traffic. The Cambridge arch at Anderson saves about 23 meters, ± 7". Can Cambridge arches (except Weeks) be mandatory for safety?
Green had the best line to the finish, Blue's aberrant course was previously scolded by Blue's wife.

[Carlo Zezza @carlozezza]

@rowsandall @boston_sculler fairness should recognize the need for prudence. In defense of Blue's line, note that Cambridge arches are taken at River St, Western Av, and Anderson bridges, that the course bows out between Anderson and the Eliot bend, and out again just before Eliot bridge

@StephenSeiler whattayabet this pose was elevated in post-production - check hard edges of image and focus clarity difference

can you put CC's on your Youtube presentations?

@boston_sculler May be a hero, but out of a job and forget promotion to admiral. No one in the Navy can break the chain of command without payback.

@sweatscience For rowing races my warmup is 20 strokes at race pace x 3 or x 4 until HR reaches 150 (my HR max is ± 175, at 4 mMol lactate HR is ± 155). Effect lasts 15-20 minutes despite inactivity, ensures aerobic kicks in before ATP is exhausted.

@StephenSeiler This is interesting but my 20-year detailed record doesn't show heart rate going down, and reps to failure on a leg press has changed very little. I think the slowdown comes from cardiovascular efficiency. At least for me, it doesn't seem to be tied to heart rate.

@mcguirkmike what did you fly?

@rickeyvisinski This should have been in Boys in a Box. (Peter Sagan's 1st pro stage win - age 19. Tour de France green jersey - age 23)

[Carlo Zezza @carlozezza]

@rickeyvisinski - age 25 is late. Top elites show their potential earlier. Yes, HS sculling is the way to get there.

@DetroitRowing @usrowing grooming for O's is useless w/o a talent base. As NGB @usrowing's medal goals are mandated ("Boys in a Box"-Ch. 6)
