4.9/5 (12579 ratings)

Description:This is a practical manual for rowers and coaches. Whatever your level or experience, it will help you sort out your own technique, and show you how to teach beginners or improve the crews you coach. There's only one way to row well, and that's what this manual is about. The manual covers how an oar moves a boat, the rowing stroke, watermanship, rigging, sculling, and coaching for technique. There are also sections on rowing fads and the old masters of technique. We've tried to keep the language straightforward. You probably know most of the jargon, but for beginners there's a glossary at the back. Peter Holmes rowed at Latymer and Queens' College Cambridge. Then he coached at Radley, St Paul's and Eton, as well as working with college and club crews for many years. He has researched widely in the history of rowing technique. Andy Holmes also began rowing at Latymer, coached and inspired by Olympic silver medalist Jim Clark (Montreal, 1976). Following success at Leander and Kingston, Andy joined the GB national squad led by Penny Chuter. In the four nicknamed 'the unlikely lads', coached by Mike Spracklen, Andy won gold at the Los Angeles Olympics in 1984. The crew also broke the world record. He went on to pair with Steve Redgrave, winning at the World Championships in 1986 and 1987, and the Seoul Olympics in 1988. They broke the world records in the coxed and coxless pair. Andy worked with the French national squad, and he coached junior and club crews. For this Kindle Edition of the manual, there is a postscript about two related articles, one discussing blade lift force and its implications for technique, and the other the advisability of coaching for backsplash. These are available on request.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
