Functional Strength and Movement

Rebecca · October 1, 2024

Functional Strength is your ability to carry out the tasks of “everyday life”. As rowers, these tasks include lifting a boat off a high rack, twisting to rotate in the sweep rowing movement as well as off-water activities.

Most masters rowing injuries occur off the water – loading the washing machine or missing your footing in the garden or shower.

If you think “those are preventable injuries” – you’re right. And David Frost is the man to show us how to prevent injury, maintain our body function and continue to row as we age past 60.

Designed for F, G, H and older masters

If you have hit 60 or are close to moving into the F racing category you will already have noticed how your body has changed; how it’s stiffer in the morning, it’s less good at doing simple movements which used to come easily and maybe you’ve also suffered an injury in the past years which has kept you off the water longer than you wanted.

David Frost is a masters rower, an author, and a functional strength training specialist – he says

“Our “whole body” sport mandates the “self-care” of all major body joints and connective tissues for better performance and injury prevention.”
