Focus Point: The Handle
• When analyzing the rowing stroke we will be focused on the handle of the erg.
• The handle is most important because when your in a boat the speed of the handle directly relates to the speed of your boat.

Preliminary Movement
• Since the stroke is a cycle we will start the movement at the catch.
• Muscles involved: - Flexion of the phalanges - Contraction of gastrocnemius and
soleus - Contraction of the hamstrings

Critical Instant • The oar entering the water this is the critical instant, as
this if the moment when the force is applied. • The muscles begin to contract explosively and this
begins the stroke.• Muscles involved: - Rhomboids - Quadriceps - Hamstrings - Gastrocnemius - Soleus

Force Producing Movement • The force producing movement in the rowing stroke is
the drive.• This uses all the major joints in the body from largest to
smallest, creating the maximum velocity and force. • Muscles involved: - Trapezius - Hamstrings - Deltoids - Gastrocnemius - Triceps - Soleus - Rhomboids -Quadriceps - Pectoralis Major - Wrist Extensors and Flexors - Rectus Abdominus - Gluteus

Recovery/Follow-through/Backswing
• The rowing stroke has two main components, the drive and the recovery. The recovery, the follow-through and the backswing are all part of the recovery.
• Muscles involved: - Deltiods - Hamstings - Triceps - Quadriceps - Biceps - Pectoralis Major - Rectus Abdominus - Internal and External Obliques - Wrist extensors and flexors

Planes and Axis Used • A rower always moves in a straight line. When the boat
is moving through the water and when the rower is moving up and down the slide he will aways be moving through the sagittal plane.
• The rower might tip from side to side if s/he is unbalenced this would be movement through the frontal plane
• The axes used is that of the antereoposterior axes. The rotation occours in the hip joint and in knee joint

Levers
• The main lever used in the rowing stroke is that of the oar in the water, this is a first class lever.

7 Principles Biomechanics• Five of the seven priciples are used in the rowing stroke• Stability – Keeping the boat steady and level. • Maximum Effort – Joints used: Ankle, knee, hip and
shoulder• Linear Motion 1 – Pulling the oar through the water, the
harder you pull the faster you go• Linear Motion 2 – The movent occours because of the
high force applied to the oar.This force results in movement in the opposite direction
• Angular motion – In order to have a powerful stroke you must swing through your hips.

Newton's Laws• The Law of Inertia- Objects that are in motion tend to stay in motion unles an external force is
applied to it- Eg. The force from the oars move boat, but water apposes the movement of
the boat
• The Law of Acceleration- A force applied to a body causes an acceleration of that body of a magnitude
proportional to the force, in the direction of the force, and inversely proportional to the body’s mass
- Eg. The harder you pull the oar the faster you can move the boat
• The Law of Reaction - For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. - Eg. Push the water with your oars and the water pushes back just as
hard.

Final Analysis
• Tecnical improvements from the Video- Explode out of the catch - More lay-back- Straighter back
