Dr Valery Kleshnev, Rowing Scientist

Interview with Dr Valery Kleshnev, one of the world's leading
experts in rowing biomechanics and advisor to Olympic rowing teams.
In this interview Valery chats with me about his life growing up in
the former USSR, what first attracted him to rowing, and his
journey to becoming the head of Biomechanics for the Australian and
Great Britain Rowing teams. Valery covers some fascinating insights
into his past as an international rower, including how he won the
 championship single scull for the USSR at the age of 18 and
insights into the what some of the top crews focus on measuring and
improving to make the boat go faster. This is a long form
conversational interview with Valery and we will do a follow up on
his thoughts on the key aspects on how to set up the boat and
athlete to go fast.  You can connect with Valery at
