UT2 🧐
lol… Walmart and a shooting range - this American’s worst nightmare. Your “must see” 😂
I know lol! Tis the novelties of it all haha.
Great vid mate, just had a competition and this really helped me put things back together.
Glad to hear it!
Great content keep it up!
Watching this after watching Team GB men's fours getting bronze in Paris Olympics. You are very likeable, intelligent and self aware. Thanks for sharing
Thank you Kate that is very kind of you to say. It is an incredible achievement what that crew did! I havent been following the media coverage, but unfortunately I am sure there will be people out there talking about how it was a "failure". Lets keep spreading the message about what success is really about!
I almost finished "Can't hurt me" after your suggestion last week and it truly is an amazing and motivating book. If you have other great books like this one, please let me know!
On mindset, not so much - but my two other favourite rowing related books are "advanced rowing" by Charlie simpson and "The long win" by Cath Bishop
Very useful and interesting video. Thanks, Jack!
Very inspirational! I have two little distractors living in my house so I can practice all the time 😆
This is probably only my problem but you lost me with the watts percentage calculation. Unfortunately we don't get much explanation in the club about how to use the ergo so I am clueless about watts and what to do with them... (I was just told to try to stay beneath 2:20 or row at a certain stroke rate for a certain amount of minutes) So probably a very stupid question but how do I know what are the watts for 2k or 5K?
What is your personal best for 2k?
Hi Jack, Unfortunately I never did a 2k on an ergo. I have started rowing less than 2 years ago. The first year I just did three group lessons a week which weren’t very structured (all on the river). People told me that the only way to get better was to row, row and row so that’s what I did. I usually do 20/25 rowing sessions a month (8-10 km each) and 2 hours of private lessons a week to have my technique corrected. The coach follows me on the river and corrects my rowing. Very useful but apart from these two hours no real structured training or coaching. I never used the gym because I didn’t know it was useful 🙈. Two months ago I asked the coach a training program to make and measure progress. He gave me some schedules (like doing 7 min sessions on the bike and ergo with 3 min breaks, or doing 5 series of 7-min sessions with 3 min breaks on the ergo (4 min 22 - 2 min 24 - 1 min 26). My only measure was to see if I could go under 2:20. So that’s why I can’t answer your question about my best 2k time. Nobody ever told me that that was something you should do. Or how to do it. I would love to work on my rowing in a structured way that makes it possible to measure progress. Is this something that can be done from a distance with totally unexperienced people like me you think? 😆
Thanks for this very interesting video. I never saw such an approach before (also because I have just started rowing two years ago probably). Very useful and inspiring! Thanks for your time!
Last training: a training focussing on a certain aspect of technique?
alivin is the red chickmuck simis is the blue chickmuck and the green one i can,t remember his name no joke
16:40 Really enjoyed this anecdote, had me laughing out loud.
Excellent stuff 👌
Newb question: Is left-hand always the top hand, or is that preference, rig setup, or could you just switch whenever you want? I can't tell if it is a shadow, but your right knee almost ducks in a bit.
Can you make a video taking about weekly mileage/how to increase mileage/how much mileage is too much?
Okay dokay!
Hi Jack I am 63 and work on my level 2 being 94-110 ?
this deserves a comment as it's great advice...it's easy to get into high rate panic mode with dirty finishes and rowing it in at the catch...just try to relax...draw through to the finish which itself should help your blades to pop out...a clean finish sets you up for a clean recovery...I'd personally say it's tricky to square early when you're at race pace but just be sure you're square and not flipping it at the catch...and _always_ remember to _place_ and then drive...then you can really apply the power and get it moving...have fun.
I love edging
Another little gem there. I haven't been warming up hard enough. That'll change for the next 2k (and be practiced beforehand). Thanks.
Yes its so overlooked, let me know how it goes!
wish you hadn't edited out the "getting into a single" bit...I still struggle with this lol
Thanks for the comment, I’ll maybe make a video on this. In the meantime I can maybe put a google drive link in the description
Google drive link is in description!
@@JackBurnsEdgeRowing great thanks for that appreciated
Poetry in Motion Jack!
Strathclyde Park? I don't recall the footbridge but I only rowed there one. Looks lovely wherever it was!.
Where?
Strathclyde Park, Glasgow, Scotland!
yeah hearing about preventing back injury, and just in general a good core routine building the smaller stabilizing muscles would be amazing to see
Would be really interested to hear your thoughts about off-season training if you want to make a vid on it? Like how to structure it/what kind of training to prioritise/ how much erging etc.
Valuable content for people structuring their own training plans, thanks Jack 👌.
PS I'd like to see more Tokyo 😁
Just saw that you’re online now, Jack! Love the intro and content. Your message always comes through. Can’t wait to catch up with the episode.
Awesome video Jack, how does this apply to rowing in an 8. I'm more talking about pushing off during the stroke rather than the catch, so a race start/paddling/sprint work, my coach has been saying to really push off the legs as soon as you're in the water for suspension. I understand different boat sizes require different power curves, but are you able to give some insight what helps in an 8, especially for regatta season starting. Thanks!
Yes you want to push hard on the front, but only after you are connected. You want no air on the front of the spoon before you push.
thanks a lot! :) helped me with creating a core routine! plan to do it 2 times a week after training, maybe I can do it even 3 times :) going to start with flexion: hanging knee raises (15x 3sets) extension: hyperextensions (15x 3sets) rotation: russian twist (15x 3sets) antirotation: cable hold (40s x3) isometric: planks (40s x3)
Do you adjust your drag factor down for UT2 sessions? Also curious if you factor in watts into consideration when thinking about your zone training.
very useful ! thanks a lot . Is it possible to do it but not with square blades ?
Jack, your 'terrible' starts to your videos always put a smile on my face, don't change a thing!
Great stuff, very useful content 👌
May the Fourth be with you! Also… no racing?!
Haha, no definitely not for a while!
I don't know what to say about the audio difference... Echoes decreased, but volume seems to have dropped as well. I think a bigger sample size is necessary.
Oh, and "Hi, Mike."
I chuckled at your dig at yourself about how people stop watching when you're talking. It is certainly a tough balance to find. I like the transition from the stupid of a parking ticket to the zen of the water.
This was fun!!! Let’s get David in a boat!!!
i think it’s interesting how you do hold the body position forward for a very long time in order to elongate the stroke but you have a head movement up at the catch and then down throughout the stroke making it LOOK like you are opening with the body super early even if they are still, just something interesting i noticed
Yes that little head nod is a bad habit of mine!
Thank you for this discussion and the tips on the time length for cross training sessions and the reminder about the core. There are a few points that I would like to bring up - first, that cross training can give opportunity for cross-competition, which doesn't have to be high level (Parkrun for me) but it does add a spark to the motivation to get out the door in the morning. Second: a former US National Squad sculler and HOCR Championship sculler has told us that she does not think that the erg is superior to other off-the-water training and prefers running. She coaches juniors and of course this could be completely different at the elite adult level. Third: I know an international cross-country skier, coach, and sports training scientist who regards swimming as the least useful cross-training and running as the most useful. But sometimes we just do what our bodies, the weather, and our work schedules make possible for us.
Thank you for sharing this :) really inspiring.
I liked this video: you are right that it's often not helpful when a coach says "cleaner finishes" or "you're not connected" without giving a specific positive change to focus on in order to achieve the correction. And it helps to hear some different ways of expressing the change - what clicks for one person may not for another. What would I like to see in videos? Some lower rate rowing since things can change when the rate climbs over 35 (or so I'm told, I don't get there!). It would be great to see a rate 20-22, then 28-30, then the very high elite rates.
Very helpful - thank you!
Best Yet... In the end its about life skills and helping each other... Wining is part of it all. I have said for years. If you are not a true enough person to yourself without the accomplishments you will never be true enough with them... Enought being on a team, on the water and making lifelong friendships..
Excellent video, extremely useful content for me. I hope to see more of this. Thanks Jack
Will do thanks for the comment
Really like this type of content
Hi Jack, please could you do a video about exercises you would include in a core circuit to improve core strength (excluding compound lifts and actually rowing)? Thank you, really appreciate all your content.
just filmed it stay tuned
I've been doing zone training on the row for months- following this 80/20 (well i try...) using HR keeping my LSD in zone 2 HR and concentrating on max output (both effort and HR) a few times a week for shorter sessions.
I love the substance of vids but wondering if it was shorter it could get more watch percentage. I’m fine with length but a large chunk of rowing ppl simply won’t watch a video that long (or click for a matter of fact) and that might have implications on the algorithm. Just an idea
Longer and more detailed is naturally better
Hey Giovanni, check out my Instagram in the link in the bio. Thats were a post all the short sharp stuff.
