More power : the story of Jurgen Grobler : the most successful Olympic coach of all time
Matheson, Hugh (Rowing correspondent)2021
Books
Jürgen Gröbler's Olympic coaching career is one of legend, yet the man himself has remained resolutely out of the spotlight. Over the last twenty years he has masterminded British Rowing's incomparable success. And when the difference between gold and silver can mean mere fractions of a second, Jürgen Gröbler, and his more power mantra, has achieved gloriously consistent victory. This authoritative account of Gröbler's career straddles the Iron Curtain, beginning in the German Democratic Republic, where systemic state-funded doping was an open secret, before crossing to Britain following the fall of the Berlin Wall.
