All About the Rower Safety Guidelines

What is a rower?  A machine used to simulate the action of watercraft rowing for the purpose of exercise or training for rowing.

Rower Timeline: 4 th Century B.C.  The first rowing machines were introduced as supplemental military training devices

Rower Timeline: 1872 AD  WB Curtis was granted a patent for the first modern early rowing machine

Rower Timeline: 1957  First rower was created that could measure power output.  It utilized a heavy solid iron flywheel.

Rower Timeline: 1970  Norway creates a rower that utilizes hanging weights which allows power production to be calculated more efficiently.

Rower Timeline: 1980  Air resistance ergometers are created

Rower Timeline: 1981  Concept 2, the leading manufacturer of rowers began selling their indoor rowers

What are the benefits of rowers?  Low impact  Allows joints to move through a wide range of motion  Total body exercise; utilizes arms, core and legs

Rower Safety Considerations  Clothing: long shirts should be tucked in, baggy shorts and skirts are not recommended as they may get caught in the seat rollers  Keep fingers away from the seat rollers  Do not let go of the handle, place it carefully either in the handle hooks or against the flywheel.

Rower Safety Considerations Cont.  Do not twist the chain or pull from side to side. Pull it straight back with both hands  When rowing hard maintain proper control. Failure to do so may result in slipping off of the seat.

Rowing Action Phases - Beginning  Shins vertical, torso angled slightly, arms fully extended, abdominals engaged, shoulders relaxed with slight pinch

Rowing Action Phases - Drive  Initiate the drive with the legs by giving a quick powerful push and begin to straighten the back while keeping arms straight

Rowing Action Phases - Extension  Legs are extended with a slight bend in the knee, back is extended slightly away from the body, arms make a 90 degree bend at the elbow and handle almost touching the ribs

Rowing Action Phases - Ending  Start returning back to the beginning position by extending the arms and allowing the handle to pull the body forward. Flex forward at the hips and align the chest over the thighs. Slide the seat forward with slow control.
