cheat_training_group Cheat: Sat May 30 Workout Lock 5 | Sign up for Week 4

Hi Cheat Trainers,

It was great to see some of you on the river on Wednesday! While spending some serious time paddling forward toward the eddy at Wet Bottom, I was thinking a lot about stroke efficiency. When paddling forward it is good to think about isolating each movement so that the power you get from your stroke is directly going into moving the boat forward. Be aware of any expended energy- like your boat pitching (moving up and down) or yawing (moving side to side). It is good to be intentional about how the hull is hitting the water, keeping it quiet until you want to use edge, or your feet and pelvis to move it forward.

This segues into the boofing motion.....

For this Saturday, Cheat Regular is going to meet at Lock 5/6 to do a boof clinic with Steve-O before heading down Little Falls. You can bring a short boat! We will have to walk back up the towpath from Little Falls. For parking, remember you have a few options and we should spread it out so it doesn't get too tight. You can park in Brookmont, either near the crosswalk to Lock 6 or near the foot bridge to Lock 5. You can also park at Lock 5 or Lock 6. Please be on the water near the Lock 6 put in at your scheduled time.

Please use this new google doc to sign up for next week- one weeknight session and one weekend. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Fj5YeFSSxbTvDzx5JeZauhjwktmMomM0qNBBWEXqSak/edit?usp=sharing
I really appreciate your flexibility with schedules.

I would love to have any feedback about how the new format for Cheat Training is going and any thoughts you have about taking a trip to the Cheat- especially whether you would be able to run your own shuttle.

Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow! Ashley
