Masters Winter Erging
This 3-month indoor erg training program is designed to build fitness and refine rowing technique in a fun, supportive environment. It is ideal for those brand new to rowing who want to try erging, as well as masters rowers with any level of rowing experience. Athletes will take part in weekly coached sessions focused on developing strength, endurance, and technical skills. The coach will also design a training plan for the weekly coached session plus three additional non-coached workouts that athletes can complete on their own. The program prepares athletes to return to the water in the spring feeling confident, conditioned, and ready to row or ready to learn how to row, depending on their experience level.
