What seating position do rowers use?

  • Standing

  • Kneeling

  • Seated

  • Lying down

Answer

Rowers use the seated position, with their legs extended in front of them and their feet secured in footrests. This position allows them to apply maximum force to the oars and maintain stability while rowing. Rowers sit on a sliding seat that moves along tracks in the boat, allowing them to extend their legs and pull the oars effectively.
