Faster Masters Episode 2 – Adapting Technique: Making Technical Gains with Physical Compromises

Episode 2 in the Faster Masters Suite is about how to adapt your technique so that you can make technical gains while managing physical compromises.

Most masters athletes are physically inflexible, many carry injuries or areas of compromised body movement. This does NOT stop us rowing. But it does mean we need to make compromises in order to get gains in our rowing. This episode shows how to address different types of “compromise” from stretching, improving mobility, adjusting the boat rig, getting comfortable in the boat.
