I believe the old version is still available on the App Store. Scroll down and look for ErgData for PM3 PM4. Not sure if that would work with the PM5 or not. Thanks! Upon reviewing some of the other threads, looks like I"m not the only person who was happy w/the old version. I just downloaded the P...

Don't think an "update" was necessary. I was fine with the prior version and liked the operation and look/feel of the screen/data options better. The 1st time that I saw/used the update was today. My normal routine is to do two 5km sessions. During the 1st session, I had no problems logging in or wi...

Looks like it's down (again) as of 7pm Pacific Time. Couldn't post my last Jan Challenge workout. Hopefully, it'll be bac up before midnight.

Point it, the skierg does not mimic snow ski much. It is much more an exercise on itself. Re double, single poling. Single poling gets you nowhere, cause al you do is use your arms, which is ofcourse not much. Re Double poling, this is the only way to go, if you want speed and its perfectly possibl...

Brand new here and to the Erg world. I know this would slow me down, however if my goal is to increase my effective arm work out, what effect would you guess using 3# wrist weights would have? TIA, Soon to be owner of a Ski Erg I do a simulated SkiErg routine that mimics the movements of x-country ...

I own a rower and have put a modest (as compared w/others) 5M meters on it in 4 yrs of ownership (3 yrs of actual rowing). I don't own a SkiErg yet but I have used one and I have x-country skied before. Most of the demos and "training" videos I've seen regarding the use of a SkiErg are worse (in ter...

Swing, I sense a kindred spirit re: training methodology. LISS, LSD, for me, whatever you want to call it. 6 days a week, minimum 1.5 hrs a day, plus bodyweight exercises. My days of HIIT, intervals, minute drills, burpees pyramids, heavy lifting, complexes, etc, etc are far in the past for me. Mor...

My rowing has been up and down over the 3 full years that I've owned/used mine. Did 1.6M meters in 2017/2018 and 2.1M meters in 2018/2019. An elbow injury sidelined me in 2019/2020 during which I only did 700k meters due to an elbow injury and travel plans that limited how much I could and/or wanted...

Losing weight is all about calories in vs calories out (CICO). If you burn more cals than you ingest, you will lose weight. Simple as that. I lost 40# just 6 months by monitoring my food intake just lifting and w/o doing any cardio. I have also maintained my weight loss over the following 18 months ...

Been having discomfort with those nasty little "piles." Traditional medical advice is lots of hydration, high fiber in the diet, exercise, and sitz baths - doing all three but still lots of discomfort. I'm going to lay off the erg for a few days but continue light lifting and walking for exercise. ...

Apart from a seat pad any suggestions?? Nope. I've tried a variety of pads with no success. I've got a very bony butt which isn't surprising since my BF% (as measured by hydro) is only 8.3%. All the pressure goes rests right on the bottom of my hip bones. Anything past 15 mins for me is literally a...

I have been rowing 10k meters/day (with occasional rest days here and there) for the past 4 months and plan to do so indefinitely. Hasn't been a problem for me. It only takes me a little over an hour a day to do this and I do not fatigued or tired because I do. However, I generally only row at a "mo...

I'm 67 and have been rowing 10k meters everyday (which an occasional rest day here and there) for about an hour a day for the past 4 months and plan to cont I do this by rowing 4 sets of 2500 meters each (with a 5 min break between each set) at a rate of 27-29 spm which takes me 12-12.5 mins per set...
