We are excited to continue building our momentum and community from the Maine Coast Summer and Fall 2024 seasons into the winter as we look ahead to the upcoming Spring and Summer 2025 Racing season.

Rowing is about more than the meters you put in on the water with an oar or sculls in your hand(s). It is also about the steps you take off the water, both physically and mentally to improve yourself as an athlete.  It is about the discipline to pursue goals and challenges.

During the Winter Training season at Maine Coast, we will continue to build our rowers' speed and strength, through weight training, bodywork, and ergometer training to build aerobic resilience, explosive power, and mental fortitude.  Utilizing concepts of mobility and mindfulness, we want to focus on preparing for a competitive spring season and beyond while creating a strong 2k background for all rowers, especially those on the collegiate track with plans to row at the college or university level.

As a benefit of our partnership with the Brunswick Parks and Recreation Fitness Center, all participants at any schedule level (full session/ weekly / or daily program options) will benefit from full member access to the  Cardio Center and Weightroom for the duration of the Winter Training period at any time outside of scheduled team training periods during normal facility operating hours.  This will allow those engaged in winter sports or irregular schedules to be able to access the facility on the weekends or other hours to supplement their winter sports team workouts.  The group's discounted membership rate through this partnership and schedule allows Maine Coast Rowing to keep the coached training program costs as reasonable as possible while providing maximum accessibility and flexibility.

Additional benefits of signing up for any schedule level include access to Maine Coast ergometers 7 days a week during operational hours, as well as focused rowing-centric training modalities and strategies during the coached practice sessions.  Our full-session athletes will receive personal training plans tailored to their goals with specific strength and fitness markers in addition to the daily training support and supervision of guided strength training and exercise form development.  On the ergometer, we will work on maintaining and improving form fundamentals with a disciplined rowing base technique that is critical to maintaining good form in the boat.
