Abstract

One of the factors that can affect rowing speed is the flexibility of the waist and good arm muscle power. The physical element of flexibility can help increase the range when rowing and help the frequency to be faster so that the athlete can row well, while arm muscle power is needed in rowing, in order to be able to do every row that produces a movement to advance the boat, flexibility can help increase reach when rowing. and helps the frequency to be faster so that the athlete can row well. The purpose of this study was to determine the contribution of waist muscle flexibility and arm muscle strength to the speed of rowing a dragon boat. This study uses a qualitative research type. The data collection technique in this study was to use the literature review method, so that data collection in this study used sources from reference books, textbooks, scientific journals, as well as periodicals or scientific magazines published regularly by institutions both government and private. The results of this study indicate that there are several physical components that need to be considered to be developed in rowing speed, namely cardiovascular endurance, strength endurance, muscle strength, flexibility, speed, stamina, agility, muscle explosive power, strength endurance. Researchers also found a significant contribution between the flexibility of the waist and arm muscles to rowing speed of the dragon boat. In addition, it is also known that there are several other factors that affect the achievement or speed of speed, especially rowing, namely (1) factors from nature (strong or strong winds and currents), (2) factors from the rowers themselves including the techniques they have. The conclusion of this study is that the contribution of the flexibility of the waist muscles and arm muscles is very influential on the rowing speed of the dragon boat male & female athletes.
