Abstract

Olympic Rowing is a ‘power endurance’ sport with a range of anthropometric, physiological and technical requirements. Literature examining the physiological determinants of elite rowing performance has rarely included the analysis of different groups or their longitudinal development. Elite rowing traditionally adopts a ‘squad based’ approach to training which often fails to recognise the potential benefits of individualised training. To date, limited data exist examining the individualised profiling of elite rowers leading to the inclusion of bespoke training prescription in order to maximise performance.
