In our recently published articles [1 and 2] we have shown that the commonly used method to calculate power output is flawed (see also this blog). To determine accurate ‘true’ power output values we came up with an alternative method. This new valid method differs from the commonly used method with an amount that is equal to […]
In his most recent Rowing Biomechanics Newsletter (October, 2018), Dr. Kleshnev comments on two studies that were recently published in the Journal of Sports Sciences (see Hofmijster et al. ,2018; Lintmeijer et al., 2018). In these studies, we explain why the common method to determine rowing power is incorrect, we determined how large the error is and […]
We wrote a guest blog at rowe.rs on the flaw in current power output calculations. It illustrates why most used methods do not result in correct power output values and the problem of the this flaw.
Today our second article on improved calculations of mechanical power output in on-water rowing has been published as well. In this paper we quantified the difference between power output that is calculated using the common method and the actual true power output. For this study we used Xsens sensors. Additionally, we provide a method that […]
We proudly announce that our article on power output calculations in rowing has been published. In this article we show that common calculations of mechanical power output are incorrect. Additionally, we provide a theoretically correct method to calculate power output in on water rowing. The following article on experimental data will be published soon. The […]
IRIS, Insights & Research in Sports: De tool om topsportdata op één plek op te slaan en terug te koppelen. Met trots presenteert een consortium van wetenschap, bedrijfsleven en topsport de nieuwe topsportdata tool IRIS (Insights & Research in Sports). Een tool ontwikkeld om alle topsportdata binnen de Nederlandse Roei- en Zwembond (KNRB en KNZB) […]
