Crew strength training
Perform multi-joint weight-bearing exercises such as body-weight squats for lower body strength, and push-ups to develop upper and lower body strength. Push-ups should be done with arms extended (but not locked), and level with the chest. Students who cannot do standard push-ups should begin with bent-knee push-ups (knees on the ground).
