Steps
  • Sit down on the seat so that your body is
    centered. Your sitting bones on your rear should
    be on the seat, with the tops of your hamstrings
    just barely on the seat.
  • Adjust the foot straps so that your toes do not
    hang over the edges of the footboards.
  • Take hold of the handle with both hands. Avoid a
    tight grip, and keep your thumbs underneath the
    handle (unlike the image). They should be
    shoulder width apart.
  • Sit ready. Sit back on the slide, lean back
    slightly, and pull your arms in to your bra line
    (or where a bra would be on you.)
  • Start the stroke. Put your arms out.
  • Lean forwards.
  • Bend your legs.
  • Reverse the motion so you end in your starting
    position. Straighten your legs.
  • Lean back slightly.
  • Bring your arms in.
  • Repeat.
