Today marks the Statewide Reopening.

We will continue as we have operated for the last few months: enter when a staff-member allows, sign-in, then you’ll be assigned a lane.

News of our plans for our NEW NORMAL (no sign-in, no lanes, no masks, very much RSVP) are coming very soon, included an expanded class schedule.

Be on the lookout for said news, otherwise we keep the vulnerable ones safe by continuing what we’ve been doing. At least for the remainder of the week.

Warmup

Row until told otherwise then

Coach Lauren has awesome shoulder positioning

Rather than “head through the window” most athletes should be focusing on “pushing the bar back” so it lines up above the spine AND reveals the ear while remaining in good posture. The issue with the “head through” cue is that it tends to control the neck more than the shoulder.
