The field of strength and conditioning has grown exponentially over
the last two decades, making both collaboration with others and
recognition of the impact S&C coaches can have beyond the
weight room more important than ever before. This book purposefully
begins by sharing professional insights from both the individuals
S&C coaches work with - the event coaches - and those
individuals S&C coaches work for - the athletes - to examine
how collaboration towards agreed, shared and understood performance
goals works in practice. The latter chapters focus on applying
S&C principles within rowing populations, which are easily
transferred to any athlete. This includes: a 'performance
backwards' approach to planning; exploring an adaptation approach
to programming; common injuries across rowing populations; exercise
selection, including specific trunk training assessment and
programming; transfer of training to rowing performance, and
finally, understanding the needs of Paralympic Rowers.
This book aims to provide and challenge coaches and rowers with
best practice, advice, principles and training programmes to
improve their rowing experience and performance. Regardless of
whether you are looking to improve on-water performance, set an
indoor rowing personal best or enhance the quality of your training
you will find something of value within these pages. Topics covered
include: training and technique; egrometer training; specific
rowing conditioning; strength training; monitoring and assessing
land training; mobility and flexibility; weighlifting technique;
trunk training; nutrition and mental skills. "With the approaches
detailed in this book, were were able to break records on the water
and on the rowing machine and face our Olympic final feeling
totally prepared and genuinely excited about the challenge.
Regardless of your starting point, the guidance in this book will
help you take the next steps towards your own goal, and to making
your own magic. Good luck!" Dr Katherine Grainger CBE and Anna
Watkins MBE
