December land training focuses on building strength, aerobic fitness, and technical consistency through structured erg workouts and weight training. This phase prepares athletes physically and mentally for the upcoming racing seasons by developing the conditioning needed to train and compete effectively on the water.
Athletes will work on:
-
Ergometer training to build endurance, pacing, and rowing efficiency
-
Strength training to improve power and overall athleticism
-
Consistent training habits that support long-term performance and progression
December land training is an important foundation period that helps athletes enter the new year stronger, fitter, and ready to transition back to on-the-water rowing.
