holy smokes... so many VT people here..
Chai: do you work at Fitness world?
just curious, but how does the coach determine if a person should be on the left/right side?
Nope, don't work at FW; just work out there 3 times a week. I also did not go to VT, I'm at DTer and proud of it 8)
As for paddling side, I just chose the left side myself when we first tried it out. It made logical sense to me since I'm right-handed and thus stronger on my right side, I'd be able to hold the right arm up for longer.....although some of you may disagree and chose the right side because your right-handed.
