I don't think it's that adequate for rowers, since is to general. VO2 max depends also on body type.

Power work-out first, then erging or opposite?

I don't have time to split my training in two and do one in the morning and the other afternoon. Usually I row first and then go to do some power work-out at gym. Anyway fitness instructor at new gym I've just joined told me it should be opposite? Who's right?

Plus today 14250m in 1h...45m more than previous PB!

Anyway my initial question was, how useful is data received by the watch that you can analyze on laptop screen to get times down? that's review from UK site...

T6 doesn't work with PMx, how about connecting Polar S625X instead? Does Polar S625X have to be connected to PMx? I thought all data goes from sensor on my body to S625X straight away and then I could see on the screen at home. What gives me connection to PMx? Blinking heart on the PM screen? What i...

Thanks for your help, I checked Amazon and they sell it for less than $300. That's a lot better than $449 somewhere else. All reviews focus on running and biking. None of say a word about rowing.

Suunto T6...good buy or not?

I'm planning to buy Suunto T6 to use it for rowing on erg. How helpful is it for getting my times down? Is it worth $400?

What do you think? Any suggestions?
