Indoor rowing is technically easy to learn, but more versatile than it appears at first glance. Those who train regularly will quickly encounter terms such as Catch, Drive, Stroke Rate, Watt, Pace, HIIT, LIT, Aerobic Threshold, or Lactate. This glossary explains the most important terms in an understandable way and categorizes them for training on the rowing machine.
