Winter Training Programme
Background
Through the kind support of the ILT Foundation the Southland Rowing Association has developed a Structured Winter Training Programme for a small group of aspiring rowers from the region.
The objective of the programme is to have a selected group train through the winter period concentrating mainly on off water strength and conditioning. The Programmed is managed for the Association by SIT lecturer and Academy of Sport South Island Accredited Strength and Conditioning trainer Will Payne.
The Programme begins mid May and finishes the week before the R2K Singles Regatta (19 or 20 Weeks).
The Association is fully aware that a significant number of especially school aged rowers who may be interested in the Programme will have other commitments (e.g. other sports, school or work) over the winter and may not be able to be involved. It is important that ONLY those athletes who can complete the vast majority of training sessions nominate themselves for the programme.
Purpose of Programme:
• Offer a well structured winter training programmed for a group of pre-elite rowers
• Put a greater number of resources into a small group of athletes
• Offer an effective sport education programme
• Increase rowers strength and endurance for summer season
• Improve performance!
