I do about 25% more watts on the bike then I do on the erg. 345w on the bike for 20 minutes vs 275w on the erg for 20 minutes.

I decided to have a go on the C2CTC for this month. Ended up with an alltime PB with 21:57 on the 6k TT

It's been a long time since I posted something here. When I took up competitive cycling again in 2021 I hardly spent any time on the rower. During the cold dark winter months I climbed on my c2 again and last month I decided to help my team out to float another boat in the C2CTC. This month's challa...

Just did an interval workout. 7x1km @24spm. Fastest interval was 3:26.2. Got me on to the second boat

Hi Guys, I look forward to next month's challange with the 6k TT. On this month's 1k challange I'm not particularly strong but I could post a time just to float another boat, would that help?

Posted a time for the c2ctc. Wow man, I hardly ever do a 1k effort. It felt like I nearly died 3 times during the effort. I was 4 seconds off my PR on a 1k but I am very happy with that. 1014m as a result.

I do cycling as well as rowing. My personal best on a 2k is 6:48 which equals 330 watts On a recent PB attempt on a local climb I averaged 395 watts for 5 minutes. So 7 minute power would probably be around 25 watts lower @ 370w Earlier this week I equalled my PB on a 5k row @ 18:17 which equals 265...

100m PB 13.6 (-0.2) not the PB I wanted, su 1:20 500m was the plan, but since yesterday I have a little cough and problems breathing through the nose, so 500m were no option. Back and legs felt very fresh, so decided to try the 100m. In fact it were 2 PBs, Lowpull of 1:04 is 1 split faster too 😁 Ho...

As some of you might know I hardy ever touch the C2 anymore because the focus is on cycling atm. However, I managed to surprise myself yesterday equalling my PB on the 5k yesterday @ 18:17 .... It seems that my basic conditioning is pretty good and if I start rowing more I'll be able to set some new...

Thanks a lot mate, missing your posting in here, you were on a strong streak last time we spoke! :) Have been focussing on cycling for the past year. When it's really crappy weather outside i'm still on the C2 for 30 or 60 minute workouts. So the basic rowing conditioning is till there but if you d...

Hey guys, I'm back for a surprise visit. Focus has really been on cycling last year. Got my racing licence again and have my first official TimeTrial planned next saterday. Sadly real racing won't be hapening soon because of the pandamic. I've just put in a time for the april cross team challange. G...

Hoi Johan, Ook ik ben lid van de forum flyers. In de zomer doe ik veel wielrennen dus ik roei voornamelijk in de winter. Meestal piek ik op de roeier ergens rond maart en daarna is het veel buiten spelen op de racefiets. Als ik dan in oktober weer begin met roeien dan heb ik wel een tijdje nodig om ...

Hoi Johan, Het is zowiezo al mooi dat je gewoon een uur onafgebroken op de roeier kan zitten, de meeste mensen halen dat niet :-) Als ik kijk naar je data dan valt mij vooral op dat je een (hele) lage SPI hebt. Dat je Stroke Power Index. Hoeveel watt trek je per stroke. In jouw geval roei je met 27 ...
