You start to wonder if there's something wrong with your erg when you can't hit those paces anymore. Is the fan dirty? Are the cords wearing out?

Re: Please comment on my technique - video

If you've ever played (or just tried) Golf you'll know there is "the perfect golf swing" that is universally taught throughout the world with really only very slight and subtle variation. However in practice there are almost as many different golf swings out there as players - including amongst the...

Re: Mud season madness 22

Did my 3rd last night, went at a steady pace of 2.17/500 compared to the first 2 done at my usual 2.14/500 can not believe the difference the 3 sec pace makes. Only took a minute longer but seemed so much easier.

Have ordered a HRM so look forward to using that.

According to Erg data my av Drive length was 1.30m Drive speed 1.75m/sec Av Force 95lb looking at these can someone tell me how these compare and what I could improve on. :?: Well done on the PB.

Re: Like Starting All Over Again (How Long ?)

Well I have just got back from my first session for 17 odd weeks. It is definitely going to take a while to get back to where I was. Did 8 x 10000m 2r at a steady rate and was really blowing and sweating 😅 buckets.

It’s good to be back roll on Wednesday :D
