The science behind BAT Logic's rowing products does not exist in isolation. While we take a unique approach to the practical application of knowledge, for those with a thirst for knowledge, we recommend the following publications. Where possible we have linked the publications directly - for others, you may have to get to the library!
Taken from a range of sports, what you'll find here is some of the best minds in sport underlining the validity of the BAT Logic approach. Happy reading!
