So now i Dragon Boat...

[Rissole]

Hi everyone, wow i havent been on a forums for ages...
So now i'm kinda desperate /confused
I just made selection to paddle in the Australian Dragon Boat team in China at the end of April and prob need to change the way i train.
I have no idea how to train for explosive power... All i've known is body building.
What splits should i be looking at, body parts, days.
What sort of exercises??? I dont think flys and bicep curls are gonna do me much good... lol
Any help would be appreciated... i feel so outta my depth...
Thanks guys
Pete

Do we know you...OMG the Rizz is back!!!!!
Pete,
Off the top of my head.
Rows, high rows and low rows.
Low back, hyper extensions/rack deads
Hips strength will be important, box squats.
Ab strength, weighted crunches, hanging knee's
to the chest.
And mainly, find a rowing machine and start rowing.
