Destination: Seville Workout Planning

Welcome to Destination: Seville, a week dedicated to traveling the world with Hydrow. Our newest #HydrowDestination brought us to the architectural masterpiece that is Seville, Spain. 

Every day from Monday, April 11th through Sunday, April 17th, we’ll release a new set of rows and mat workouts designed to be paired together to maximize the benefits of rowing, strength, and flexibility. 

“It’s important to complement your rowing workouts with strength, mobility, yoga, and Pilates in order to improve your rowing technique and performance. By developing flexibility and strength, you reduce the risk of overuse injury, while building a balanced and healthy body. We collaborated with the Athletes that traveled to Seville to design workouts that pair well together in order to make the most out of every workout with Hydrow,” says Pete Donohoe, Hydrow’s Director of Fitness and Strength and Movement Specialist. 

Take a look at the workouts that will be released during our Destination: Seville week along with pairing recommendations by our Exercise Research team. Make the most of every day and start planning your week now.  —
