New 2K record for me today: 08:48.3 (Amazing what a more efficient form can do. ) I was only at a 21 or so stroke, but the distance was covered quicker.)<br /><br />I followed it up with a slow 10minute 2K to get some distance logged.

Thanks for the info.<br /><br />I used my mechanics gloves, which I've found worked nicely for mountain biking, and the blisters didn't hurt.

Need help with times...<br /><br />I don't understand how everyone is getting such good times. I'm 34, 180 pounds and not totally out of shape. I need to lose 15 pounds, but I'm not even close to others my age.<br /><br />I just rowed 10K with the damper setting at 5 and I'm rowing at 37 strokes per...

I tried the 5 damper setting last night and my times were about the same, but I didn't feel like I worked out.<br /><br />I'm going to go back to 10, it just feels like I'm strengthening my muscles as well and leaning them out.<br /><br />Of course, I'm just getting back into this rowing and two day...

I'll go try it at 5 for 5K and see what my times come out to.

Movies like Rocky or Blood Sport where the hero has to beat the odds, get me to keep rowing.

I've found that pulling the rower in front of the TV keeps my mind from thinking about rowing. If you are into a series like Rocky (watching the Italian get the snot beat out of him) then put a motivational movie like that in.<br /><br />Scary movies don't work for me, but maybe for you they will ge...

Thanks for the welcome. I got excited and pulled the rower out. Started watching , "Kill Bill Vol. 1" and went to 5K. It took almost 26 minutes on the 10 damper setting.<br /><br />Question: What is everyone running for their damper level?<br /><br />I feel more musle exhausting with the 10 setting,...
