Initially, I actually gained weight upon beginning to row. I've become thick and even wider than I usually am. At 5'3 that's a bit tough to deal with, especially since the goal is to lose weight. I'm older too, and take medication which can render one "...metabolically resistant to weight loss." Tha...

Anna--do you have row pro? We could do a midnight row on-line? Susan Hi Susan, When my Model E arrived in early November, I activated my Row-Pro trial and liked it very much. Unfortunately, with the upcoming holidays, I forgot to purchase the program before the trial expired. All efforts to purchas...

Hooray... I smell.....

......Sicilianna--Those meters piling up sure do get addicting, don't they? And some of those long, slow rows can sure get those feel-good endorphins flying. Gotta love those endorphins! Funny how after a long row, the next row seems easier. When I first started this HC, I worked to get 6k done, an...

Hello TVChikee,

Not to worry, with those numbers, you ARE rocking ! I've just started rowing in early November and only have 60,101 toward the HC as of this evening. I'm just stunned by everyone's accomplishments.

Buona Fortuna a tutti! Good Luck to all!

Keep up the good work,

Though I've owned my rower for a little less than a month, I'm trying for the 100,000 mark.

Still much to learn, but am happy to be part of this,

Hello Candace, I hope you are well. I rowed for 30 minutes tonight, and raised the damper to 4. I came out of it with 4257 meters and a wattage of 37. I have to say that I'm feeling it in my knees, so tomorrow, I'm going back to a damper setting of 3. Hi Schenley, Taking your advice, I went to the ...

I left it at 3 yesterday and rowed for 30 minutes plus some. I rowed a total of 5,466 metters and my average watt...

Hello again Candace, This morning I rowed for 31 minutes or so, yet I lost all the information by clicking the wrong button it seems. I do remember that my average wattage was around 41. If you say your average of 61 wasn't very strong, then I've certainly a long way to go. I may row abit before be...
