"A biomechanical review of factors affecting rowing performance" A Baudouin and D Hawkins
"Many have explored the physiology, biomechanics, and physical aspects of rowing. However, few efforts have been made to understand the interrelationship between the biological and mechanical systems. This paper attempts to bridge these gaps by analysing rowing as an overall system driven by a biological system"

"Better rowing through strength training" Wayne L Westcott
"we will concentrate on those exercises that specifically address the rowing muscles. However, the second objective is to strengthen the muscles not used in these activities, especially the opposing muscle groups that must balance the prime mover muscles and maintain joint integrity throughout thousands of repetitive rowing movements. That is, you need a sound and sensible strength training program for comprehensive musculoskeletal conditioning."

"Junior national team strength training program" Ed McNeely
"Using Dutch Olympic, national, and club level rowers it was found that international rowers on average generated 204 kg of force [at the catch]. National level rowers generated 183 kg of force and club rowers generated 162 kg of force."

"Kinesiology of the rowing stroke" Thomas Mazzone
Illustrated discussion of the muscle involvement in the six stages of the sculling stroke.

"Modeling the leg motion of a rower during the drive and recovery phases of the rowing stroke" Suzanne G Hoffman
"although finding a knee torque curve which yields the desired behavior is quite difficult, the results obtained earlier, although incorrect, clearly indicate that it is possible."

"The physics and physiology of rowing faster: the stroke" Stephen Seiler
" The Fat Middle Drive represents a happy medium. The catch is still important. Early leg drive is still critical, but the action is controlled and extended through the entire leg extension, not brutal and cut short. The athlete is trying to extend the power application over a longer time period."

"Rowing injuries and lower back injuries: the case of the rower who drove himself to a bad back" Raphael Brandon
"we ... decided that he should introduce a dynamic, full range-of-motion hip flexion/extension exercise into his daily routine to help counteract the tightening effects of his city-centre driving. "

"ScrumTruk used for strength training by world champion rowers " Bruce Ross
"Gluteal strength and forceful hip movement are essential factors in developing boat speed for rowing. The ScrumTruk facilitates power gains, in these areas, in a controlled environment."

"Specialized strength training for rowers" Stephen Seiler
"Most rowing programs around the world incorporate a structured strength program of some type into the overall training program. However, the relative volume of these programs varies considerably, and some of the most successful rowing programs do almost no weightroom based strength training."

"Strength training and endurance performance" Stephen Seiler
"Specific strength training can help us to teach our brain to communicate with the right muscles. ... However, the concept that just making muscles bigger and stronger will automatically translate to faster endurance performance is Wrong! "
