can you roughly predict your 2k time from your 500 interval times? yet to do a 2k on the skierg so don't really have an idea what to set out for which means I could go too hard or too slow. currently doing 8x500 with 1 minutes rest at an average of 2.11.

any ideas???

thanks in advance!

I was wondering if there was a virtual app out there for training on the skierg. Seem to be able to find them for the rower and cycle but not the skierg.

anybody know of one?

Happy new year all!

Thanks

Danny

Thanks again

hi! I was a very keen tower but due to a damaged knee I needed to give it up.

Hi I've just been told I need a knee replacement and that rowing is definitely out of the question...only cycling allowed until my knee finally packs up! For this reason, and this reason only I am selling my black model d with a pm5. Only 62k on the clock so like a new machine. Looking for £650 for ...

Hi again Thanks for the input. I think I will do one low stroke rate session per week and build that up in terms of time spent on the rower, along with a 15k session, a 10k and a 5k. That should get me up to 40+k a week which I think is all I will have time for. How does that sound? I'll probably po...

Thanks for that

Do you think some low stroke rate stuff would be beneficial?

Hi I'm 52, 5'10'' and weigh in at 85kg. Last year I did my one and only marathon and managed 3 hours 25 minutes and 18 seconds. I am more of a cyclist than a rower but my bike frame just snapped so I've sort of given up on this season as its gone off to Trek for an examination and hopefully I will g...

PB for my second HM today. Knocked 5 minutes off my previous best with a time of 1 hour, 33 minutes and 37 seconds.

Felt it with 3k to go but nailed the last 1k and the rest is history!
