Sculling hands

Seems I have more wear and tear at the base of the three outside fingers on my right hand (dominant). Calluses build up in these areas at a much faster rate than my left hand. One thought I had, but hard to verify, is that my fingers grasp the oar handle more tightly with my right hand. Is this comm...

Thanks much. I have a general sense of the overall pacing strategy but it is the opening few hundred meters that leave me most confused. At what point does the average split begin to converge with the instantaneous split is my question? Do you fight hard for a quick convergence or settle into race p...

But the average split is well below my race pace because of the time lost accelerating the flywheel. The only way to push the average split down quickly is to lower the instantaneous splits wh...

I would like to see a time average of my heart rate for a given piece. The data could be displayed in graphical form. The average rather than instantaneous value is of greater interest to me. Perhaps programmable limits might also be useful as well.
