METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MEASURING ROWING SKILL

The present disclosure relates to a system for providing real-time performance feedback on a rowing machine, the rowing machine comprising a load unit 1 coupled to a support track, a seat 5 slidably coupled to the support track for supporting a rower, a handle 3 coupled to the load unit arranged to move relative to the load unit by a pulling action on the handle, and a foot stretcher 4 coupled to the support track arranged to receive a pushing action thereon, the system comprising: a first sensor 13 configured to measure a first parameter indicative of the pulling action on the handle; a second sensor 11 configured to measure a second parameter indicative of the pushing action received by the foot stretcher; and a data processing unit, DPU, configured to determine a relationship between the pulling action on the handle and the pushing action received by the foot stretcher based on the first parameter and the second parameter.
