One of the most successful athletes of all time, Steve Redgrave is
uniquely placed to share his expertise and experience in this go-to
guide for rowers, especially at a time when more people than ever
are participating in the sport. Redgrave firmly believes that the
basic principles and techniques of rowing are the same for
beginners and elite athletes alike, and it's this philosophy that
underpins the book. Starting with the basics of equipment and
clothing and how to get started in the sport, he then moves on to
more in-depth chapters on technique, tactics and competition. The
revised edition also focusses in detail on the physical and mental
preparation needed to excel, with chapters on biomechanics,
training and cross training, injury prevention and diet and
nutrition accompanied by insights into motivation and belief. The
text is illustrated throughout with line drawing and photographs,
and enlivened by personal anecdotes and reflections from Redgrave
himself. The book also includes full rigging charts, a fault
diagnostic to help hone technique, details of strengthening and
conditioning exercises and lists of useful information, such as how
to find a rowing club, a guide to courses and training camps and
equipment suppliers. This is a book for rowers of all levels who
want to learn from the best and aspire to perform to the best of
their abilities.
