In this podcast episode I sit down with Dr. Volker Nolte and Dr. Valery Kleshnev to discuss power measurement and biomechanics in the rowing stroke. In Episode 119, I had interviewed Lotte Lintmeijer who presented a new method for power measurement. Dr. Nolte and Dr. Kleshnev wanted to discuss the traditional method of power measurement and share why this is still valid. We also discuss how this integrates into technology and what rowing can do to be more appealing to fans and spectators.
Here is a short bio on both of my guests.
Dr. Valery Kleshnev - a graduate sport scientist and silver Olympic medallist. Since 1986, Valery has been involved in R&D and consultancy in rowing biomechanics and has spent more than 20 years working at sport institutes in Russia, Australia and the UK. You can learn more about Valery at his company's website Biorow.com
Dr. Volker Nolte was the head rowing coach for Western University for 24 years and retired in 2017. Nolteâs work as a coach was recognized several times over his career. He received the Award of Merit from Rowing Canada Aviron in 1996 and the International Rowing Federation (FISA) in 1998, the Presidentâs Award from Rowing Canada in 1998 and was the 3M Coach of the Year in 2001. In 2006 and 2007, he was awarded Coach of the Year from the Canadian University Rowing Association and was the first Western coach after Jack Fairs who received the Jack Fairs Coaching Award of Merit in 2009. In 2010, Nolte was presented with the Coachesâ Recognition Award from Rowing Canada.
Nolte received both a Physical Education Diploma (1976) and a Civil Engineering Diploma (1979) from the University of SaarbrĂŒcken (Germany), and a Ph.D. (1984) from the German Sport University in Cologne (Germany) in Biomechanics.
He is an internationally acknowledged expert in biomechanics. Together with his expertise in the coaching field, he frequently presents at scientific and coach education conferences worldwide. His research includes coaching and biomechanics of high performance sport, especially rowing. He is also a distinguished researcher in the field of sport equipment. He co-holds international patents for isokinetic training machines and his developments range from special measurement tools up to new boat designs in rowing. His research has produced many papers in refereed journals, articles in various publications and the popular book âRowing Fasterâ, now in its second edition (2011).

In this interview I sit down with Dan Harris, World Class Start Coach for Bath. Dan works on behalf of British Rowing and is responsible for running talent ID testing regularly â to try to identify and recruit more athletes. In addition Dan is instrumental in training his athletes day to day and has been in this role since September 2011.
One of the things that makes Danâs perspective particularly insightful is handles the coaching on the water and in the strength and conditioning facility. I learned a lot from my conversation with Dan and how during the formative years of athletic development between 14-18 he emphasizes that some of his rowers strength train up to 4x a week to add mass in preparation for the high volume they will need to handle at the senior level.
Part 1 | Talent ID What physical metrics are you looking for in your athletes (height, weight, athletic background)? What ergo scores? Other athletic profile/physiological measurements to identify strong potential rowing candidates. Anything on the mental/psychological side? Part 2 | Athletic Development More gym sessions at a younger age to work on mobility, flexibility, strength, stability, power, - Why is this important? Athletic development and importance of adding some muscle mass so the athletes can sustain the training volume at U23 and Senior levels. What is your focus for that 14-18 age group in terms of gym? In terms of rowing? Notable Olympians who have come through the Bath Start programme? Skills to do Pull ups / chin ups Front and back squat Seated rows and lat pull down, bent over row vs. bench pull Rapid Fire Whatâs your top technical drill to develop skill for a rower? What strength and conditioning exercise do you feel has the best carryover to rowing? If you were in charge of FISA, what would you do to keep lightweight rowing? How would you continue to develop and expand the sport? What advice would you give yourself 10 years ago? Whatâs the one thing junior athletes should be doing more of to compliment their training and health?

Ed McNeely received his Masters Degree in Exercise Physiology from the University of Ottawa in 1994 and has been involved in the strength and conditioning industry for 30 years. He has been a consultant to twenty one Canadian national and professional sports teams and is currently the Strength and Conditioning Lead at the Canadian Sport Institute Ontario.
Ed served as a physiology and strength consultant to Rowing Canada for 24 years - through the Rio 2016 Olympics. He is the author of five books: Power Plyometrics, The Resistance Band Workout Book, One Hundred Strength Exercises, Training for Rowing, and Skillful Rowing. He has published over 100 articles on training and athlete conditioning covering topics such as strength training, plyometrics, making weight, assessing fitness, speed and power development, planning and periodization, and aerobic fitness. He is a frequent resource for other writers, acting as an expert for articles in Muscle & Fitness, Outside Magazine, the Georgia Tech Sports Medicine Newsletter, the Rowing News, the Globe and Mail, Ottawa Citizen and the Discovery Channel.
Ed and I discuss rowing at the elite and masters levels. In addition, he shares how he was able to establish benchmarks for rowing high performance athletes and research using isometrics. Enjoy the show!
Part 1 - Ed's background and bio Whatâs the backstory of how you came to work with and be the lead for the Canadian Rowing Team? 24:00 patience 4-5 exercises for strength Part 2 - Strength Standards for Rowing You were one of the first to research and publish strength and conditioning standards for rowers from the junior through masters levels in both Rowing Faster and Strength and Power Goals for Rowers How did you go about identifying the strength to bodyweight factors for each age group? Did you test each age group? How did you standardize squat depth, bench pull and deadlift for athletes/age groups of various weights and heights? Absolute Strength vs. Relative Strength and why relative strength is more important to a rower. How much strength is too much? Once your athletes hit the standards in the chart outlined in the journal what qualities do you begin to focus on to continue their development? Do you have concerns about mass impeding their ability to row technically or move well? Would you continue to emphasize the back squat, deadlift, and bench pull or is there another skill/lift you would focus on given your experiences at this point? When I attended your lecture at Joy of Sculling you mentioned you have athletes deadlift 1x a week, and squat 3x a week. Why do you feel there should be greater emphasis placed on the squat? Peak Power is the limiting factor of performance Most rowers are pretty equally trained when it comes to aerobic capacity. Peak power is often a key differentiator in rowing performance. Do you think this applies to all rowers or more mature rowers (college, U23, Elite, Masters) vs. juniors and novices? When following the protocol for peak power improvement, power output (strokes) must be 90% of greater. Why? What exercises in S&C do you feel are more transferable to improving power in the rowing stroke? Plyometrics / Jump Training for Rowers âPlyometrics is the link between strength and powerâ The athlete should be able to squat at least their bodyweight for lower body plyometrics and bench press 0.75 times bodyweight for upper body plyometrics. Why do we need this foundation of strength before we start introducing plyometric work and how were you able to determine this for the rowing population? Into catch position and accelerate out of catch position Masters rowers Benefits of strength training for the aging athlete Osteoporosis, dynapenia, sarcopenia, combat loss of power/strength Why masters rowers may need to place greater emphasis on strength training for age and health related factors? What would you prioritize more for this population vs. college/elite? Why you are not a fan of machines vs. free weights.

Periodization.
Strength and conditioning coaches and sport coaches use it to help their athletes progress and adapt - to get stronger, faster, and more powerful.
But, what if the foundation of periodization has roots from somewhere else? What if periodization was never intended for sport at all?
If I have tickled your curiosity then you are going to love this podcast with John Kiely.
John is a strength and conditioning coach and currently work at the Institute for Coaching and Performance (ICaP), at the University of Central Lancashire. His current research interests revolve around human performance, and include: The detrimental effects of fatigue on running coordination; the modernizing of Periodization planning paradigms; stress as it relates to performance and health; genetics and sports performance; and the link between fitness, movement, cognition and emotional health.

In Episode #119 of the LEO Training Podcast, I interview researcher and data scientist Dr. Lotte Lintmeijer.
This entire podcast interview is focused power measurement in a rowing shell and the historical measurement for power and Lotte's research regarding the development of a new, more accurate method.
Interview Topics: Part 1 : Background and Interest in Rowing How did you come to research rowing? Defense of PhD Pop Up Symposium this fall on âPower in Rowingâ Part 2 : Power in Rowing Why power is a key factor in rowing performance? Traditional/Standard way of calculating power On the water there is no constant velocity and boat is not standing still, the rowing shell accelerates and decelerates so equation on water is not accurate. New method Differences between the two and what the standard method misses. How and Why rowers should calculate power? What is the added value of power output feedback compared to feedback on boat speed? Are there alternatives to determine power output in practice? Study you did with rowers FEEDBACK ON ROWERSâ MECHANICAL POWER OUTPUT IMPROVES COMPLIANCE TO INTENDED ON-WATER TRAINING INTENSITY Rather obvious that rowers better comply with power output targets when they receive feedback: why is this study important? How to train and improve it? What is the next step in your research on power output in rowing? Show Notes: Improved determination of mechanical power output in rowing: Experimental results Mechanical power output in rowing should not be determined from oar forces and oar motion alone Rowers' on-water power output is commonly underestimated - Laat meer zien
