Row Faster - Get Recruited

Email to Enquire

Seb and I are personally coaching some athletes after they dm'd us. If you're interested, you can join in too.

Here's what we offer:

  1. A weekly training programme made specially for each athlete. View sample programme
  2. Video review of each athlete's technique on the erg and on the water.
  3. Daily texts to keep you accountable. (Often calls too).
  4. Answers to any questions you have about nutrition, race planning, mentality, etc.

If your goal is to get recruited to a top school (e.g. Cal, Stanford, Ivies, Oxbridge, etc.), we can also walk you through the recruitment process. We'll introduce you to athletes who've been recruited there before, speak to coaches, and act as a technical reference.

On top of that, we meet in-person once a week on The Boat Race course. We do two in-person sessions:

  1. A hard erg and/or weights session together in the gym.
  2. A row in a big boat (4- or an 8+) with a couple guys from recent Boat Races.

It's a lot of fun, and the quickest way to learn rowing. We've seen crazy-fast improvement in our athletes already.

Obviously, this is a highly personalised programme and we're really invested in the success of each athlete. We won't take on more than 6 athletes. You should be able to travel to Putney once a week.

If you'd like to apply, send us a brief email with a bit about yourself to lyncht248@gmail.com. Include your:

And we'll set up a call.

If you are only interested in one part of this programme, feel free to reach out anyway. We'll put together a fully-remote group if there is enough interest.

Cheers,
Tom & Seb
