Garrett's Feb 2K with VO2 Max analysis
Loading...
Uploaded by UChicagoRowing on Feb 20, 2009
Vo2 Max testing is normally a cost prohibitive tool for many club teams. Such a luxury is actually something only elite rowers and athletes at top tier schools get to partake in. During our regularly scheduled Feb 2009 2K we were lucky to have the opportunity of having the VO2 Max of some of the team analyzed. Mark Osadjan, a lecturer on Physiology at the Biological Sciences Collegiate Division at University of Chicago, has the training and lab equipment to conduct VO2 Max testing as part of his classes and labs. After an educational presentation to the whole team several rowers were given the choice of doing their test attached to a gas analyzer. Here one of the team's rowers is doing a 2K while having their VO2 MAX tested. Special thanks to the Bio Dept and Mark for allowing us this opportunity.

Cool?? Argh... Useful sure it is, but cool... We used to do this at least once a year, and i hated the thing. The pipe has to be rather long, so you end up breathing the same air over and over. As if it weren't painful enough :^)

what did he get for the test?

you realise that is actually slower on an erg. try do an all out sprint over 100m on the erg you will find its faster to just row normally rather than doing a racing start

that extra arms only pull after the first stroke was weird. do you do that for races on the water?
snackweight 2 years ago
No the "extra arm pull" thing is most likley just his way of doing a quick start. On the water the first 4 strokes were 3/4, 1/2, 3/4, Full. On an erg test I try and coach the rowers to not fly and die and quickly get the wheel spinning, but then settle right into their target splits.
