Do you know it's a slipped disc or could it be a strain or muslce tear? I *think* I gave myself a slipped disc about 5 years ago pushing gears that were too big on the bike and it was much sharper pain than the strain I currently have from doing deadlifting. :roll: [/quote] I actually heard/felt the...

It actually a great feeling when they crack it...worth the £40 alone lol. Last i asked my GP, they dont treat common back issues on the NHS, pressumably it would cost them a fortune. But possibly worth asking the GP first. Best of luck with it...and keep moving it, laying down doesnt do it much goo...

Ive battled with bilateral sciatica on and off since i was 15 and had a rugby accident at school. On the whole i have found rowing benefical to my back pain...i row a little more than 60k a week, i pressume my core and lower back muscle have strengthened and i have more stability in that area. Some...

Thanks, I don’t row since Saturday plus I made the appointment to see my doctor as well.
I’m going to improve my technique, was just wondering, if anyone had a similar problems?

Is it related? I started rowing 8 months ago (30 k weekly). On the begging my partner was checking my technique and it it was all brilliant. Eventually, after a month, I started to row when no one was there. Around a month ago, my husband seen me rowing and said I have learnt the wrong technique, I ...

I'm puzzled that you regard yourself as overweight. From the figures you've given, it looks like your BMI is about 23.5-ish i.e. not far off bang in the middle of the 20-25 band that denotes 'healthy weight' for your height. I realise that BMI is an imperfect gauge but using it as a rough indicator...

Are you saying you are doing 22000 steps five times a week?

Yes, I am.
I’m a postwoman.

Thanks.
I will look more closely into my diet.
I was feeling and looking better, when my weight was slightly less than now, that’s the reason I would like to lose some kg.
Thanks for all advice

I don’t eat too much after workout, but I think now the problem is what I eat. You mentioned too much carbs, I checked what food contains carbs and it looks like I eat only carbs

Unfortunately, I don’t have time for long workouts, 25 minutes fits just fine in in my schedule.

My partner says to change the resistance level from 4 to 3 and try to do 5k in the better time. Do you think it’s a good idea?

I row on resistance level 4

Hi everyone It’s my 7th week on concept2 model d. I do 5k 5-6 days a week + walking 22k steps 5 days a week. Healthy eating I think. I started 5k with 27:48, now it’s 23:58, so there is a difference. I don’t really look at anything else on monitor, well, maybe expect the calories lol But the weight....

Thank you for all answers.
I’m going through all videos and info given.

Hi, Thanks for your reply. We are checking the technique ourselves and it seems my partner does it right, he doesn’t lean back to much. I am thinking now, that maybe I don’t feel my abs, as they are quite strong already- I walk 13 km a day. I hope this is the reason. When he told me about how his ab...

Hi, I have just purchased the model d. Both, me and my husband using it. We have watched a lot of videos with techniques, etc. , to make sure we do it right. But I don’t feel my abs at all, while my partner says he feels it a lot. We do the same distance 5 k, the difference is he does it in much sho...
