The number of meters does not have all that much significance. It depends on how hard you go at it. 1000m at a racing pace is far harder on the body than a 5000m at an easy paddle. It is the combination of distance and intensity that counts. Bob S. I am going at what most people would call a pretty...

Hi Joe- My husband and I are following the same path as you and your wife. Just going slow, avoiding injuries and trying to make it part of our lifestyle. We sold the last "clothes rack" (an elliptical) when we realized that neither of really like to run. :) We got our Model E about a week ago, we w...

Hi everyone. I'm new to the C2- have a bunch of weight to lose and have spotted some posts recently from other newbie's in the same boat :D I know I like to have a place I can check daily with others to keep me focused and on the right track so I don't slack off. I figured I would start a thread and...

Thank you! That was exactly the info I needed.

I am new here and I'm trying to understand the program for weightloss at the UK site. I went thru the steps and entered my height, weight, pounds I want to lose, etc. I generated a training plan for me --but I don't understand it. I copied a bit ....hopefully it will paste correctly.

I don't know if you are still checking in here, but wanted to say hello. I'm a newbie too. I'm hoping you are making progress.

I'm a newbie too and I just wanted to say hello and wish you luck.

Hi everyone!
Newbie here! Just wanting to say hello. I'm still learning my way around the logbook, the machine, the technique, etc. My erg arrived yesterday and tried it out. I am WAAAY out of shape-but hopefully the erg will help change that.

anyway- just wanted to say hello.

I tore my feet up pretty bad doing a boxing/bag class. Both feet achilles tendonitis and PF. It was difficult to walk for over a year. Stretching daily is the only thing to really help it. The best stretch I found was in the mornings before getting out of bed. Lay on your tummy like you are going to...

Thanks for the warm welcome. :D I prepared to be the tortoise and take this slow and easy. The last time I tried the 'fast' route I ended up tearing my achilles & plantar facia in BOTH feet. It took almost a year to recover from that and get back to just being able to do the daily around the house w...

Hi everyone. I posted the intro below last night in the weightloss forum and then found this spot for introductions. I am looking forward to being here more often. I ordered my rower tonight and I'm excited for its arrival. I've been reading the posts in this forum and its very inspiring to hear the...

Hi everyone, I ordered my rower tonight and I'm excited for its arrival. I've been reading the posts in this forum and its very inspiring to hear the success stories and know they started out where I am now. I'm 45, mom to 2 girls, and simply have not taken care of myself. My father passed away just...
