Benefits

Assessing your performance after your row requires you to somehow internalize and hold onto suggested changes for your next outing – then try to implement them with no real idea of whether you are doing it right. With real-time technical feedback and effort measurement, you can make sure you're hitting your targets for technical proficiency and training effectiveness when you need it most: while you're rowing.

Rowing faster is a game of increments – "quicker catch", "more compression", "less layback", "longer leg drive". Getting a feel for these subjective concepts on the water can take hundreds of hours. By quantifying catch, finish, and force application into simple numerical targets, technical changes become much easier to achieve and maintain.

Achieving peak fitness requires a "just right" training load, and the EmPower Oarlock takes the guesswork out of determining training effort. By quantifying work, power, and heart rate, you can consistently perform within suggested training zones to maximize physiological training benefits.
