What to Wear for Your Indoor Rowing Session at Ready 2 Row in Tulsa
If you're new to indoor rowing or a seasoned enthusiast, you know that having the right attire can make all the difference. At Ready 2 Row, Tulsa's premier indoor rowing studio, we believe that comfort and performance go hand in hand. Here's a guide to help you choose the best clothing and shoes for your next group workout class.
Why Clothing Matters
Choosing the right gear isn't just about looking good; it's about enhancing your performance and keeping you comfortable throughout your session. Here's what to consider:
Flexibility – Opt for clothing made from stretchy fabrics that allow you freedom of movement. Rowing involves a wide range of motion, so you'll want attire that moves with you.
Breathability – Look for moisture-wicking materials that keep you dry and cool, even during high-intensity classes.
Comfort – Avoid loose clothing that may get caught in the rowing machine. Form-fitting pieces are ideal as they stay out of the way.
Top Clothing Picks
Tops
Fitted Tank Tops – They provide breathability and allow your arms a full range of motion.
Moisture-Wicking T-Shirts – Choose shirts with technical fabrics for sweat management.
Bottoms
Compression Leggings or Shorts – These offer support and reduce muscle fatigue while ensuring that nothing gets tangled in the equipment.
High-Waisted Leggings – For added comfort and coverage, high-waisted options are perfect for any workout intensity.
The Best Footwear for Indoor Rowing
When it comes to footwear, choosing the right shoes is crucial for both performance and safety. Here are some top tips:
Cross-Trainers – These versatile shoes typically provide the lateral support needed for rowing.
Lightweight Running Shoes – If you prefer running shoes, ensure they have a flexible sole to accommodate the rowing motion.
It's also important to avoid shoes with thick soles, as they can hinder your connection with the footplate.
Accessories to Consider
Sweatbands – Keep sweat at bay and maintain a firm grip on the handle.
Grip Gloves – These can prevent blisters, especially if you're prone to them during long sessions.
Heart Rate Monitor – Track your intensity and ensure you're in your optimal training zone.
