Registration for Winter Training 2020-2021 is now open!
Rowers of all skill levels are welcome.
Want to stay fit, keep motivated, and have fun while waiting for the 2021 Rowing season to begin?
Join RCR's Winter Training program! Men's and women's group programs are open to club members and others who share similar fitness goals. Our Winter Training is a comprehensive strength and aerobic training program including erging, weights and body circuits. Coach Lisa Dorn provides workouts and helps rowers improve technique, set goals and increase rowing fitness.
Covid changes everything and RCR is responding with a safe winter workout plan. Instead of our usual winter conditioning program together at Georgetown University’s Yates Field House gym, for the 2020-2021 winter we have workouts coached via zoom using an erg if you have one, your own body weight and other weights - even if they are homemade from jugs, books, etc.
Zoom:
Offline alternative to zoom:
Holiday Date Exceptions: No zoom or offline workouts on holidays such as Nov 26 & 27, Dec 25 and Jan 1. Additional weekday holidays Jan 18, 20 and Feb 15 TBD.
Checklist:
1. Register for Rock Creek's Winter Training <== register here!
2. Sign your US Rowing waiver online. To sign go to https://membership.usrowing.org. If you're not already a member, you will be required to join USRowing as either a "basic" (less than $10) or "championship" ($65) member. Follow the instructions to sign your waiver and update your profile information. You may be asked to provide Rock Creek Rowing's club code. If so, it is LEJ9X.
After signing your waiver online, note your USRowing membership number for future reference...you may have already entered it in the Rower Information section when you registered for Rock Creek's winter program. Ensure that RCR's Winter Training coordinator knows your membership number and can therefore find your waiver online.
US Rowing waivers are valid for 1 year from date of signing. Please ensure your waiver is valid through the end of Winter Training, through April 2021.
Be aware that USRowing has been using the waiver process to educate people about safety by requiring everyone to answer a few safety questions. Answer them as best you can; however, if you're wrong, you'll still be able to join.
Email us for more information and/or to be notified when registration opens.
We look forward to another successful winter training program!
