Re: Sub-40min 10K for 5'7"-tall male

Thanks. Very helpful (especially since I'll have to lean out A LOT in the next few months before I can seriously even contemplate such a feat).

Sub-40min 10K for 5'7"-tall male

Just curious if it's even possible for a 5-ft 7-inch male in his mid-40s to achieve a sub-40-minute 10k, and what kind of training plan would be necessary to achieve that.

Has ergLog been discontinued?

Every time I touch on the app on my iPhone, it immediately crashes. And when I went to the app store, it doesn't seem to be there anymore.

Anybody know about this?

Optimal Drive Length

So I've been using the ErgData app for a few months now. Love it to death. Really like the "Second Screen" that includes the drive length. What's the optimal drive length for a 5-foot, 7-inch-tall guy who rows between damper settings 3 and 4? .85m? .95m? 1.05m? Don't want my drive to be too short, y...

Re: Bluetooth Smart Adapter for PM3/4

Stupid me just this week realized that the signal from my new Polar H7 chest belt can be picked up by both the Polar Beat app on my iPhone as well as Concept2's Polar heart rate receiver and cable hooked up to the PM3 monitor at the same time (Evidently the H7 has two emitters: one Bluetooth signal ...

Re: Bluetooth Smart Adapter for PM3/4

If you could develop a Bluetooth Heart Rate Receiver similar to the Polar one (http://www.concept2.com/indoor-rowers/accessories/heart-rate-equipment), THAT I would buy in a heartbeat (pun intended)! That would allow exercisers to use products like UnderArmour's Armour39 (http://www.underarmour.com/...

Re: New iPhone app Concept2 Indoor Rower: "ErgData"

Any plans to update the ergData app (or develop a separate app) that allows one to update the firmware on the PM3/PM4 *DIRECTLY* from the iPhone?

Love ergData, BTW. :-)

Best Rug/Mat For Concept 2 Noise Reduction

I just bought a condo that has these beautiful hardwood floors. Can anybody suggest a good rug or mat that can help dampen the noise/vibration of my Concept2 Model D and thus hopefully keep the neighbor one floor below me happy?

Thanks!
