What happens if I get used to the BRace and then can’t use it in a trial or I don’t have a block under my legs in some boats?
A. Rowers have always had to adapt to different degrees of blocking under their legs with different boats. When the BRace is used on an ergo, the relief of pressure on the low back is immediately obvious, allowing optimal training of the postural support muscles and reducing injury risk. BRace use also has a significant training effect for the postural muscles, which will continue to be used when a block is not provided in some boats or during elite ergo trials. So, use the BRace on your ergo to train and gain the best muscle control, and to relieve back strain.
