I added a better resolution file of the 1996 Olympic gold medal race. I added a couple fotos too. Rowing, concept 2,... http://po.st/lW9
Amazing how other sports use lactate testing and in rowing, I am one of the very few coaches who does it.
.@JenSegger nicely designed website you have. What lactate measuring device do you intend to use. I have been happy with the lactate pro.
.@richroll where is your target heart rate for distance training? I worked best at 1.3-1.4
.@missburrows lance gets pricked in the finger. We use the ear lobe it is less messy and pain free.
@shaneyeap what is your target heart rate below 2mmol?
@slave_pauli hello, who tested you. I test rowers.
@HASDays the flywheel needs to be cleaned out and the drag increases. http://po.st/vvq
.@HASDays Do you know the brand of rowing machine. Do you do any slide increments? Arms only, half slide rowing? One arm... http://po.st/9af
.@DrEmmaWilcox Do you need any rowing input. You can find it all at www.row2go.com then you can put power behind your leg drive.
.@26mpw don't go cheap on the rowing machine. In the long run you will be rowing. The knees can handle running only so long. www.row2go.com
.@Mysitcomlife I want to see the one legged rowing is there any footage to share?
.@HASDays you do a good training circuit. What routine do you have on the rowing machine?
.@megankalmoe Hope other than the wind issue your training is going well. If you need technical feedback let me know. www.row2go.com
@divinesocialite good luck, although 10 minutes on the rowing machine can be improved. We row a minimum of 45 minutes at www.row2go.com

Read on to learn why Row2go is the best and most effective way to spend your workout-budget. 

Convenience

  • Available "on demand".
  • Exercise from the comfort of your home, any time.
  • Personal coaching via Skype available.
  • Very affordable.

Weight Loss

  • Rowing burns up to 50% more energy than other exercises.
  • Rowing exercises 84% of the body's muscle mass.
  • Rowing is gentle to your body: treadmill and ellipticals in comparison put heavy strain on the joints while only exercising certain muscle groups.

Beauty

  • Aerobic training makes for long muscles.
  • No "breaking" the muscles, no body building.
  • This results in nicely defined and well toned muscles, emphasizing that slim and sleek figure.

Fitness

  • Rowing as an aerobic sport improves your condition.
  • By working 84% of your muscles, rowing is a real time-saver.
  • A few additional exercises which can be done using the rowing machine work the rest of your muscles.

Rehabilitation

  • Ideal for heart patients because it is isokinetic, i.e. the resistance automatically adjusts to your effort.
  • Perfect for regaining your fitness and shape post-pregnancy.
  • Smooth movement, perfomed in a sitting position does not put shock load on your joints.

Cross-Training

  • Cyclists and runners train additional muscle groups and improve their over-all fitness.
  • Rowing as a full-body co-ordination exercise is perfect for swimmers.
  • Triathletes profit from all of the above, plus a great time-saving, and improve their general endurance.

For Rowers

  • Use Row2go to make your winter-training less boring.
  • Improve your technique with our personal coaching offers.
  • Get fitter following our workout sessions.
