DESCRIPTION Upon commencing its third year since its re-introduction, the University of Malta Rowing Club invites all students who are interested and/or intrigued by the sport of rowing. Sessions will be held on Concept 2 rowing machines, which greatly mimic the resistance experienced on water. Strength and conditioning sessions will also be part of the program. We will be breaking down the movements of a single rowing stroke, focusing on developing proper form so as to avoid injuries. The Indoor Rowing Championships held by the club would be a great learning experience for members wishing to row (on a machine) in a competitive setting.

Unit Material:

Appropriate unit material will be provided by the tutors during the sessions.
