LHRC Presents a 3-Part Master’s Seminar Series

From Fit to Unstoppable: Unlock Strength, Flexibility, and Functional Movement

Join LHRC and Coach Bridget Logan for this three-part winter seminar series that will equip you with the knowledge and tools to become a well-rounded masters athlete and be able to elevate your fitness to its highest potential.

Seminar 1: Saturday, December 13th, 11:30am-1:00pm
Seminar 2: Saturday, January 10th, 11:30am-1:00pm
Seminar 3: Saturday, February 21st, 11:30am-1:00pm

In the first seminar you will discover the essential elements of a well- rounded training program that enhances both rowing performance and builds lasting strength for everyday life. We will also take a close look at the flexibility required for an efficient rowing stroke and guide you through a movement screen to assess your individual capabilities and limitations. Lastly, we’ll explore topics specific to masters rowers, including how normal aging impacts the body, the influence of medications on training and the effects of several common chronic conditions. The session will conclude with a guided dynamic warm-up and a series of creative exercises designed to target sport-specific muscles and movement patterns.

The second seminar is all about getting you moving. We’ll begin with a dynamic warm-up, followed by a wide variety of exercises with modifications suitable for every fitness level. These will include multi-joint movements, balance work, agility drills, and dual-task challenges to push your coordination and athleticism in new ways. After the workout, we’ll review essential stretching techniques and discuss strategies to maximize your recovery.

In our third meeting, we’ll turn to one of the most influential factors in performance: stress. You’ll learn how stress impacts your body, when it can be a powerful asset, and how to manage it when it becomes overwhelming. We’ll also practice several breathing and mindfulness techniques to help you stay focused and resilient.

This seminar series will be held in person at Litchfield Hills Fitness*, located at 599 Bantam Road in Litchfield, CT 06759.

*If you do not have an LHF membership, you will be responsible for their daily entry rate, which is not included in the seminar cost.
