Concept2 Forum

Hey - my first time on this forum but probably not the last. I noticed (since I'm racing in it and checked) that there are 29 women racing in the 50-54 hywt. age group. Yahoo and very exciting, by far the largest group ever in this category! I remember watching from the stands in 1986 and there were...

Wow -very interesting. It will be interesting to see who ends up racing and what their times are. Will be interesting if a trend begins and if more people begin Indoor Rowing. Hey iced in for two days here in Austin -no school. . . no nothing. At least I didn't have to shovel anything. Not like you ...

Pam -You did it! It worked! Hey I tried to send you a private message a couple days ago (via the private message option) to let you know that I believe you paid for my Novotel banquet dinner -19 Euros. It was on the room bill. When I checked out, the front desk said you had already paid for it. I ne...

Teammates, Lisa, Brickett and Linda What a great time in Amsterdam thanks for all help and guidance (through the metro and tram system as well) It was lovely for me to have time to just hang out. Thank You . . . Thank You I tremendously enjoyed being part of a team and meeting all of you. Happy Holi...

Bob -thanks

I quite enjoyed the video of you doing the test piece at Xeno's. Great smile at the end!

I'm responding (finally) to you -Paul about about being so busy with business and not able to do a test piece or feel good enough about doing a test piece. . . I can totally understand. It's happened to me every year until this one. Real life and guilt about doing something for myself and therefore ...

Alright -I did it, got it over with. I decided in the middle of last night that I simply could not bear any more speed work -it kills me (which unfortunately means I should probably be doing more of it it). So today was the day. Now I can get back into regular training, which after the past 2 weeks ...

Hey -I'm finally getting back to you all - Slugbutt's suggestion and description worked. I printed it out and gave to our part time rigger boatman. He made a platform and clamped it on. The rower is very happy and even though she had not erged for about 8 months did well on her test piece because sh...

Guys - sorry about the double message. I do know how to use a computer I just can't totally figure them out.

Well -it's late but I did it! My last 5k test piece. My training in September always takes a far back seat to coaching. There never seems to be enough time in the day to get everything done. It's difficult for me to make working out a priority because . . . it isn't. 19.09.0 for 5 K, 154.9 split. An...

These test peices are great! Just give me about 20-30 minutes after the last test piece (3 days ago) which as I recall hurt a lot. I've already got got great plans for the next one.

Just take me out and shoot me!

Hey -thanks everybody -lots of good ideas and feedback. I went to the right place! I'll let the rower know all of these things. I think SlugButt's(!) contraption might work. I can visualize it and wil have rigger make one. The other ideas about foot level etc. are helpful as well -thanks so much all...

Hello I was looking around the topic pages and didn't find one that I thought would be appropriate for this question. So I made a new topic page. I'm a collegiate rowing coach and have 20 year old female athlete who hyperextends her knees at the finish of each stroke. Her knees bother her terribly w...

Alright -I did it: 156.3 in 19.23.1.

Again I was overlly agressive in the beginning -I'm older and should know better- and didn't control the piece, the piece controlled me. So now since I've done 2 of these. I'm going to start off with next one at 156.0 spilt and move down from there.
