Weight Loss/ Weight Control

<br />I am doing one hour of cardio six days a week in an effort to lose weight (30 minutes on the ERG and 30 minutes on a treadmill). I try to keep my heart rate at 135 to 140. However, Polar's website recommends 120 for me for weight loss. Their formula is 220 -age (48) = 172 X 70%. <br /><br />My...

I am a 48 year old male trying to loose weight and get into shape. Besides working out with weights in a gym, I row in the mornings and use a treadmill at the gym in the evening. <br /><br />My question is that I am having much more difficultly rowing than I do using a treadmill. After 20 minutes on...

I bought the M61 because of the additional features and that I can use it for other types of aerobic exercises. What I discovered is that the chest strap and transmitter is all that I use. I now use the M61 to give me the time and date. <br><br>Bruce Darby<br>

I am new to rowing having recently purchased a used Model "C" from a rowing club. <br><br>After a few days of use I decided to upgrade to the Model "D" handle. I like the hand position better and the wider grip better on the “D” handle but the rubber on the new handle seems to be harder. I am consid...
