Force-Time Characteristics of the Rowing Stroke and Corresponding Physiological Muscle Adaptations

Abstract: The force-time characteristics of the rowing stroke was examined in a coxless pair. Sixteen highly trained rowers were evaluated in their usual training positions (stroke or bow). Stroke rowers had higher stroke speed and stroke force in the first part of the stroke than bow rowers. This finding was more prominent during competition speed rowing than during endurance training. Higher blood lactate levels and lower base excess were found at both speeds in stroke rowers. During and incremental ergometer rowing t… Show more

“…This adaptation occurred after only a brief warm-up period, indicative of an immediate, as opposed to learned, response from the rowers. Adaptability between long-term rowing partners has previously been discussed (Hill, 2002), and has been linked to both physiologic changes (Roth et al, 1993) and rowing experience (Smith and Spinks, 1995). The motivations and mechanisms of this adaptation should be better understood to increase a rower's ability to perform at high levels in different situations.…”

“…The rowing pace is slow compared with running and the percentage of slow twitch (ST) muscle fibres in rowers is as high as 85%, while the remainder of the fibres are dominated by fast twitch (FTa) fibres with high oxidative capacity (Roth et al. , 1993).…”

“…Para nosso conhecimento, somente o estudo de Roth et al (9) comparou as características fisiológicas de remadores com perfil bow e stroke, principalmente focalizando as diferenças na composição de fibras musculares e lactato sangüíneo. Assim, poderia ser levaantada a hipótese de que remadores com diferentes padrões de curva força x tempo poderiam apresentar diferentes respostas fisiológicas, como a predominância do metabolismo anaeróbio em remadores com perfil stroke e maior participação do metabolismo aeróbio em remadores com perfil bow.…”

“…Nossos resultados sugerem que perfil de produção de força apresentado pelo grupo bow é mais eficiente do que o do grupo stroke, o que vai ao encontro do estudo de Roth et al (9) , uma vez que os remadores bow produziram maior potência máxima (436 vs. 394W) do que os remadores stroke, enquanto a maioria dos parâmetros fisiológicos foi similar. O consumo de oxigênio foi praticamente o mesmo e as concentrações de lactato foram menores no grupo bow.…”
