Anybody know of good rigging websites out there? I'm obsessing over the workthrough adjustments in my crew.

Mel and PaulS,<br /><br />Thanks to both of you. Some great tips, especially "point inside elbow toward person behind you" and "no frothy puddle". Much appreciated.<br /><br />I was also linked to a great video site to help with my girls' visualization. Check out <a href='http://www.invernessrowingc...

Any coaches or rowers out there know of good drills to correct the following problems?<br /><br />1. Leaning away from rigger. One girl in my 4+ will be a great rower if I can just get her to stop leaning away! I've tried the outside-arm only drill but to no avail.<br /><br />2. Skying/digging. My s...

Thanks J.D. I just plugged -6% into my spreadsheet and came out with slightly more accurate numbers. They pulled a 500m/1000m/1000m/500m workout yesterday using the -8 second target and came out pretty much bang-on with your -6% expectation. We'll see how Sunday's 2k pans out. I agree with the fly a...

Thanks Paul and Carole. Sounds like we're roughly in range. We've got 47 athletes pulling a 2k this Sunday so I'll have enough data to give future high-school expectations based on our standard 20-minute test.<br /><br />Carole, our girls age from 14-17 yrs old and their scores range from a low of 3...

Doesn't this vary widely by age though? I would expect my high school girls would have a wider variance between their 20-minute test and 2k test than somebody in their 50's. Greater short-burst energy. These calculations don't seem to pan out.

Coaches, my high school girls just pulled some great 20-minute test scores yesterday. Wondering if I can chart an expected 2000m result from these splits. I'm expecting approx an 8-second improvement on their splits, but wondering if you know of a more accurate expectation. Thx.
