Being a newcomer to erging I get a great deal of comic relief from this thread. Has it ever occured to everyone so worked up about this guy named "Ranger" that he is just "pulling your chains" to see how worked up he can get you and how much controversy he can create?

Anna, 100K is still a great accomplishment! My work schedule has been tough lately but have been working to stay on the 200K pace. I recall a few years ago when I was in school that it was murderous to have exams and try to erg against a goal. The erging helped with stress management but having erg ...

Weight Loss/ Weight Control

My weight is now at 255. Lost 6 pounds so far based upon rowing 8K per day and moderating my diet without going nuts. I am sure I will plateau in awhile. My goal is still 1 pound per week. So far so good.
