Questions regarding Weight Loss?

Hi,

New Concept 2 user. About 3 weeks into the Pete's Beginner Plan. Was wondering what everyone's experience is in terms of losing weight? Did you start losing weight right away or did it take some time. Do you build muscle/tone only in the beginning but not lose weight?

Thanks.

Has anyone tried the Scosche Rythm Plus armband monitor? Wondering how that compares to the chest straps. Thanks.

New to Concept 2 - Need Heart Rate Monitor Recommendations?

Hi, Received my new concept 2 and just did my first row. Looking for a heart rate monitor. I already have an Apple Watch (which apparently you can't sync) so am primarily concerned solely about finding a device that works with the Concept 2 - probably wont use it for any other applications if that m...

Re: Drag Factor On A New Model D

I just received a Model D yesterday. When I go to "Display Drag Factor" I got values of 73 at 1 and 235 at 10. Is that acceptable - is the 73 value too low?

Smartphone Cradle?

Was wondering what everyone thought of the Smartphone Cradle sold by Concept 2? How does it work for larger phones like the iPhone 7 Plus? Thanks.

Re: iPAD mount designed for the PM4

When using an iPad with the RowFree mount is it low enough that you could hit it with the chain?

Re: First Concept 2 - Need Some Advice!

Haven't made the order yet but think I am going to go with the Model D (was debating E too but doesn't seem to be worth extra $). I am tempted but the dynamic but it is the unknown versus i've used a Model D before. Although easier on back is tempting too...

Re: First Concept 2 - Need Some Advice!

For weight loss use (as opposed to competition) is there a benefit to the Model D on slides versus just a regular Model D?

Re: First Concept 2 - Need Some Advice!

Thanks for all the input. Seems like there is a little bit of mixed opinions as to whether Model D or Dynamic is the way to go (price aside). Leaning toward Model D at this point.

First Concept 2 - Need Some Advice!

Hi, I'm looking to purchase my first rower and Concept2's seem to be highly recommended. My goal is to use it for fitness/cardio/weight loss. With that use noted a few questions: 1. Dynamic v. Static - Is one better than the other for weight loss? Any other pro/cons I should consider. 2. Is it true ...
