Slide seat rowing is the most magnificent sport, according to Fritz Hagerman, Ph.D., professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at Ohio University. Hagerman, who studies exercise physiology, such as aerobic and anaerobic capacity, metabolic response, and the effects of blood lactate levels in athletes has shown that competitive rowers expended almost twice as many calories to 2000 meters of the course as a runner in the 3000 - meter steeplechase. He says that the latter is considered one of the toughest events.
Doctors say they are now 1 million joint replacement surgeries performed each year due to high impact sports. In 1999, 440.000 people have joint replacement surgery in the United States, with hip and knee comprise 98 percent of these procedures. For hip surgery, the average age is 66 and the knee, the average age of the 68th
, and competitive and recreational rowing are unique compared to most sports in that they exercise all your major muscle groups. All of your legs, back and arms are involved, and rowing. In addition, rowing is a low-impact sport. When performed correctly, the rowing stroke is fairly safe motion, provided little room for serious injuries are often in contact and high-impact sports.
the motion of each stroke consists of four parts that flow into one another. These are the catch, drive, finish and oporavak.Slijedi description of the bio-mechanics of rowing.
catch the start of each stroke, and this is the moment when your paddle in vodu.Noge, hips and shoulders in the use of the catch include the following muscle groups: quadriceps, gastrocenius, soleus, gluteus maximus, and biceps brachii
.drive
As you begin to push with your feet, you enter the drive stroke. During the drive your L EGS, back and arms are working with trapezlus, posterior deltoid, quadriceps, pectorals major and biceps brachii muscle groups.
, drag
Once your legs are fully extended, you start to pull the paddle in your hands and swing your shoulders back, which is the end position. You just use the rest of the whole body muscle groups as follows: g luteus maximus, quadriceps, brachioradialis, and abdominal
to recover
The whole process is repeated, each movement flows into the next, creating yet another stroke.
to achieve fitness goals faster at the University of Stockholm study confirms additional benefits of recreational activities, when carried out in an open environment. Many of us have suspected that exercise is more difficult to exercise outside without feeling as tired or even as we worked. We also know that the higher the exercise intensity, before fitness goals can be reached. Achieving fitness goals faster with the improvements that have been acquired, such as weight loss, reduced stress levels, shaping and toning the rewards that help us keep our program and continue to see improvements.
In a recent interview with Dr. Grant Gainor, a chiropractor local Olympic rowers, and professional athletes, about rowing in the real world than on a rowing machine, further advantages are explained. According to Dr. Gainor, range of motion needed for rowing on the water is conditioned by the need to move your hands to "catch" and "liberation", which require a deliberate change in the plane of motion in motion. This combined with a variable water surface and the surrounding obstacles takes you in a constant state of awareness, and thus pro-perceptual activities that are difficult to simulate the rowing machine. He stated that the physical, structural level, it is true, but the mental or emotional level even more. He believes that the impact on us in dealing with the stress of modern society it is difficult to calculate, but the effect of consistent and comprehensive activity in combination with the environment, in my experience, has an unparalleled influence to help an individual to maintain health, that he is more to just fitness.
Rowing is also a time for effective work and low impact sport enjoyed by all ages.
To reduce the health effects of stress and increased cortisol
Stress causes chemical changes in the body, such as increased levels of cortisol, which, left unchecked, can have a negative impact on both mental and physical health. High levels of stress contribute to health problems as diverse as depression, insomnia, heart disease, skin disorders and headaches. Interestingly, stress is the subject of more than 20,000 scientific studies.
, a 10-year study Kiecolt-Glaser looked at the effects of stress on the health of medical students. The study showed decreased levels of the body of natural killer cells, which fight infections and tumors, while the well-known exam stress period. Whether you are studying for a test or just trying to cover the additional bills, stress can have a negative effect on health.
Another study from "Circulation: Journal of the American Heart Association''pokazala that mental stress can actually reduce blood flow to the heart, combined with bad cholesterol, and smoking a risk factor of stress on coronary heart disease patients is significant..
Even though studies confirm stress can have devastating consequences for our overall heath, sometimes pride ourselves on working longer and harder, staying on top of the competition and worked until late at the office. It can make us ask for the cycle of stress.
rid of the vicious cycle of stress and emotional fatigue, decline and depression, try regular rowing along the local waterway. Your overall health will improve as the tension melts away with every breath of fresh air rich in negative ions.
Be the environment
Finally, while rowing you abstain from the use of outboard engines and can enjoy added peace of mind knowing that they do not contribute to abrasive sounds an awful smell and heavy pollution levels outboard power boating. For more information on this I recommend the book "polluting the pleasure" of Andre Mele. In 1993, his initial calculations showed that 50 million gallons of oil per year, or the equivalent of 5 Exxon Valdes oil spill and the satisfaction of boaters released in the U.S. roads annually. At the end he concluded that outboard pleasure of sailing products as much hydrocarbon pollution as well as all vehicles in America.
In addition, total body conditioning that builds lean muscle mass while burning 600 calories per hour, rowing allows you to stress, lose weight and reduce blood pressure. This is a great opportunity to enjoy the movement and its relationship with water as each stroke. It can also be an opportunity to push beyond you ever thought possible.
