🐾💕 PUPPY YOGA WAS PAWSITIVELY AMAZING! 🧘‍♀️🐶

What an incredible day at The Crew of Clearwater!

Today, we had the absolute pleasure of partnering with FLUFF Animal Rescue for a heartwarming Puppy Yoga event filled with puppy kisses, wagging tails, laughter, cuddles, and LOTS of love! 🐾❤️

Who knew a little yoga and a whole lot of puppy snuggles could bring so much happiness into one room?! 🥰

A HUGE thank you to FLUFF Animal Rescue for bringing these precious pups to The Crew and for the amazing work they do rescuing animals and helping them find their forever homes. 🏡🐕

And to everyone who joined us, donated, volunteered, and supported this wonderful cause — THANK YOU! Your kindness and generosity help make a difference in these little lives.

💜 At The Crew, we're about so much more than fitness. We're about COMMUNITY, CONNECTION, COMPASSION, and GIVING BACK!

We loved seeing so many smiling faces, both human and furry! 🐶

📸 Enjoy some of our favorite moments from today's event!

💙✨ BREATHE. RELEASE. RESTORE. ✨💙

🌿 Ritual Breathwork Ceremony at The Crew of Clearwater 🌿

We are excited to welcome Heather Kauffer of Supersonic Priestess back to The Crew for another beautiful and transformative breathwork experience!

Our first ceremony was intimate, powerful, and truly special. 💜

Life can be overwhelming, and sometimes we carry stress, tension, and emotions without even realizing it.

Heather creates a welcoming, supportive space where you can slow down, reconnect with yourself, and explore the power of intentional breathing.

✨ What can you experience? 🌸 Deep relaxation and stress relief
🌸 Greater emotional awareness
🌸 A sense of calm and clarity
🌸 Mind-body connection
🌸 An opportunity to pause, reflect, and reset

🧘‍♀️ No prior breathwork experience is necessary. Just bring yourself and an open mind.

📍 Location: The Crew of Clearwater | Dunedin, FL
🗓️ October 2026 — Limited Ceremonies
💜 Facilitated by: Heather Kauffer, Supersonic Priestess

✨ Spaces are limited to keep these gatherings intimate and personal.

At The Crew, we believe wellness is about more than physical fitness. It's about nurturing the mind, body, and spirit.

Movement is medicine. Community is medicine. And sometimes, the most powerful thing we can do is simply BREATHE. 💙

Come experience something different with us!

DAMPER SETTING vs. DRAG FACTOR 🚣

These are NOT the same thing.

The damper setting is the lever on the side of the flywheel: 1–10.

The drag factor is the actual number the monitor calculates based on how quickly the flywheel slows down between strokes.

For most HYROX athletes, we can probably leave the conversation at damper setting.

But if you’re a competitive rower—or really want to understand the machine—you need to go a little deeper.

Why?

Because every erg is different.

A damper setting of 5 on one machine may not feel the same as 5 on another. Dust, airflow, machine age and maintenance can all change the relationship between damper setting and drag factor.

That’s why competitive rowers pay attention to drag factor.

But here’s the part I really want athletes to understand:

Higher drag does NOT automatically mean more power.

Your goal is to find the drag factor that allows you to establish a strong connection at the catch, accelerate the flywheel effectively and continue producing power for the entire piece.

Listen to the machine.

If the drag is too light for the way you row, you may feel like you’re missing the front end of the stroke. You drive, but you don’t immediately feel that solid connection—and you don’t hear that strong flywheel “ROAR” as you accelerate it.

Go too heavy and you’ll notice something completely different.

The flywheel slows significantly during the recovery. Every catch feels like you’re trying to restart the machine. It becomes harder to accelerate, your legs fatigue faster, and eventually your technique can start to break down.

The goal isn’t to make the erg feel as heavy as possible.

The goal is to find the setting where YOU can produce the most effective power—and sustain it for the duration of the piece.

For many athletes, a good starting point is somewhere around:

Damper: 4–6

Then adjust based on the athlete, the distance, stroke rate, technique and how well they connect to the machine.

Don’t just set the damper to 10 because you think harder = faster.

Find the drag. Find the connection. Then make the flywheel ROAR.
