At the 2025 @henleyroyalregatta , the Greek Womens Double defeated the Dutch, who later became World Champions. How was this possible?
These two boats could not possibly have more opposing styles and ideas of how to row fast.
In this video, I explain why this technique is so effective and why it’s something every rower can learn from. Combining your body weight in a team boat is more important than being smooth, it is more important than dipping the bow deep into the water and thus having more drag - it literally outweighs all odds.
In this video, I cover:
- Why the Greek style is unbelievably effective. It is the essence of rowing a team boat fast.
- The difference between mid race speed and your technical capacity to spring.
- On the Biorower biorower.com I jump on the machine to demonstrate these force curves in real-time, showing that the Greek style gives me 100W more than the Dutch style does.
- Practical Coaching: How you can move away from "smooth" rowing and develop a style that is faster, more proficient, and better for your back.
Take your rowing to the next level:
If you want to train with the most realistic on-water feel and protect yourself from injury, the Biorower is the ultimate tool for mastering your force curve.
For those looking for a complete roadmap to their goals—whether you are a beginner or a pro—I offer personalized online training at aramtraining.com . My programs cover everything from strength and mobility to cardio development to help you become a faster rower.
