I found a really great pic that illustrates perfectly the best erg footplate position article I posted recently.

It’s here  on the world rowing site:
http://www.worldrowing.com/index.php?pageid=44

See the guy on the left?
His catch leg angle position is perfect.

The guy on the right?

He’s over-compressed.

He’s longer but less efficient for erg rowing.
