- The pick drill is the most fundamental of all the rowing drills. Use this one every workout warmup to groove the right order of operations in the rowing stroke and to avoid the most common technique mistakes.
In this video we're showing you what the pick drill is, how to do it (you can row along!), and how to use it in a workout. Whether you're a fitness professional or a rowing enthusiast, and whether you're new to rowing or looking for a refresher, this is the perfect video for you.

I'm an out-of-shape, middle aged woman who just recently started rowing. Your videos are terrific, especially the one for shorter people. I really didn't know what I was doing but I'm learning a lot and I'm encouraged to improve every time I row. I'm up to 30 minutes 5x a week...my time is slow but getting better little by little. Love these videos!
Yay! You're our people and we're THRILLED you're here! Rowing meets you where you are and takes you as far as you want to go, as we like to say. Hang out with us, ask questions, keep rowing. You're already making great progress and the best is yet to come!
I'm glad you like them!! And yes, little by little - that's how it goes. You're doing great!
@@UCanRow2Thanks so much! I incorporated your strategies for effective rowing for shorter people and what a difference it made this morning...I can't believe it. I couldn't get my 500m time under 3:30 and this morning by doing what you said, I got to 2:54 and in 30 minutes I was able to row 5200 meters. I know that's not a big deal to most but for me it is. I'm so glad I found your videos!
WOW, Peggy! 3:30 to 2:54 is a HUGE change! Well done, keep us in the loop on your progress!!! 🙌 - Sarah

@@UCanRow2 Keep them coming Cassi!
@@UCanRow2 Cassi, I have a problem with the finish, when I pulled to my chest, It seems its too easy for me. I want more resistance. I am trying to build more definition in my arms! I try settings at lower and larger numbers what do you advise?
Here's the thing: rowing is not a muscle-specific activity. Meaning it does not work just one part of your body, and you can't effectively make it do that with a setting change on the machine or in your body position. A proper, effective stroke is a full-body exercise that works almost all your muscles at the same time. And because of that, your body is going to use the largest muscles primarily... which are your legs.
The arms are very important in the stroke, but they are not doing the bulk of the work. So to really work on that definition in your arms, you might want to add in some separate resistance training exercises off the machine as you'll get much more bang for your buck there! Then when you're rowing, focus in on those big movers that produce lots of force to build that general strength and work capacity!
And you're in luck, UCanRow2 has a lot of workouts that are on and off the rowing machine - using separate bodyweight and dumbbell exercises! I think you might benefit from those types of workouts - so check them out here:

@@UCanRow2 Thx Cassi, I will check it out and keep bringing those wonderful videos♥️
Very helpful. Music was a bit loud and overpowered your voice a tiny bit. Would've also loved to hear the difference in the flywheel sound a bit more as you described them.
That's a great point, thank you!
For how long would you recommend one do this?
We typically do it for a few minutes in the first part of a warmup, for example. You can run through a certain number of strokes at each position, say 10-15.
I bought a rower it really hurts my tailbone What I’m I doing wrong
Ouchie! A couple of possibilities:
1. Try sitting up taller on the machine. This video may help: ruclips.net/video/4rZ5EcgfVuM/видео.htmlsi=wV0OHEOLOWvVnalS
2. A seat pad could also help. Which one to buy is very individual and they can get pricey. For starters, try just sitting on a small folded towel or a piece of bubble wrap to see if it helps.
Let us know how that works! - Sarah
