Mastering Rowing Rhythm – A Critical Step for Beginners

Rhythm is one of the most overlooked yet critical components of proper rowing technique—especially for beginners. In the first episode of a new educational video series, coaches Aram and Charley highlight this often misunderstood aspect of rowing and explain why mastering rhythm is foundational to long-term progress.

Why Rhythm Matters

Many beginners associate improvement with rowing harder or faster, but real progress comes from rowing smarter—and rhythm is the starting point. A well-timed stroke helps prevent injuries, improves efficiency, and ultimately translates into better performance on the water or erg.

This video episode covers:

  • ✅ What rhythm in rowing actually means
  • ✅ Common pitfalls new rowers fall into
  • ✅ How to develop rhythm through simple drills
  • ✅ Why rhythm is critical for injury prevention

Filmed on the BIOROWER PRO, a rowing machine built to mirror on-water biomechanics, the video also demonstrates how equipment can help reinforce correct movement patterns.
