Welcome aboard! From what I can tell for losing weight you should be rowing longer. SO row at a pace that you can go for 30 minutes. If you go to fast/hard you will get tired before you hit the 30 minute mark. Go at what ever speed you need to to row for 30 minutes. Log the time and the Meters. Slow...

Its to hot and humid. I might train tonight around 10. once it cools down a little. I dont have AC in the house and it was well over 90 today and very humid.

I ended up rowing from 10-10:30.

good questions. Being new to rowing myself i dont have any answers for you but i hope some one does. I would love to read them.

Welcome aboard!!! I started out at 260 and I'm down to 245. Im trying to reach 190. We are all trying to shed the extra pounds and get back in shape.

thanks for the responce. I have been away the last 5 days and Today was my first day back and it was 98 degrees out. I dont have AC so I might try to do a light row tonight after it cools down a little.

Hello every one,

I rowed for 30 minutes today!

My longest row so far.

My main goal is to lose weight. So I need to find a program that will work for me to reach my goal. I rowed 2000 meters this morning at 9:35. But i cant keep up that pace for 20 or 30 min. So tonight I tried just rowing to see how I would do. I was rowing slower to try to get more time on the machin...

Thanks for the INFO I rowed 2000 meters this morning in 10:45.5 Im still working on my form. I felt my self getting sloppy near the end . When I was done I was exhusted. I had to fight for that last 200 meters. Im going to try to do 30 min a day to loose weight. Right now I can only handle about 10 ...

GOT IT TODAY! I was a little nervous about the condition of the machine when I saw the box. The Box looked like It had been around the world and back. Once I opened it i was happy to see everything looked good. I put it together in no time. Now this is when in going to need help. Since I have never ...

Thats my problem now My pants keep falling down because my belly pushes them down! I really am motivated. I want to beable to tie my shoe laces with out running out of breath.

I have rowed 110 km in a day, with the regular seat and unpadded nylon lycra shorts. In the process of doing 1 million meters in 19 days last fall and a high day of 80+ km one day then 70+ km for three days in a row I found it was helpful to put a layer of 1/2 inch semi hard foam on top of the seat...

Would it help to wear padded cycling shorts?
