Why do novices do so well on the erg? Super fitness? Why do more experienced rowers lose this super fitness?

Why are you obsessed with the FM? The distance enforces the HR limitation. You can't do a FM at much over 75% HRR, which is pretty near UT2. ranger Tell these guys then Eddie Fletcher recorded these HR's during these Marathon rows Anna Bailey (50-59 hwt) 2:53 86% HRR (WR) Anne Yates (50-59 lwt) 3:1...

I never really heard why you once reported this at 133df and now state it was something like 200.

ranger wrote: Sure, after I get warmed up tomorrow, I should be able to slow down and ease up a bit and get you a screen shot of 10K at top=end UT2, steady state.

I'll see what I can do.

Can I have a screenshot too? or Carl, PM me the one you get or maybe post it here?
