Has Someone Checked Your Shins ?

[[old] Bill]

Hello,<br><br>I asked my wife to check that my shins were vertical and was very surprised when she told me how far off I was. I was going way too far over.<br><br>How about you ?<br><br>I find it quite difficult to strictly keep my shins vertical <br><br>Just noticed in another post that the target to aim for is chest is flat on thighs with knees in armpits and shins vertical - I find this pretty difficult too.<br><br>Will keep trying<br><br>Bill

Bill, the last time someone checked my shins I was told they were very hairy....

When I first had Chris Tippin watch me on the erg, that's one of the 1st things he pointed out. He also noticed I was overextending on my finish.<br><br>It took some work, but reducing the wasted energy really pays off as you move to longer distances. However, I still find my form slips when I'm in the last 1/3 of my pieces... when I'm really gasping for air.
