PM3 on Model C - what "easy" update options?

Hi everyone I have an older Concept2 with PM3, for which I have the USB cable from 10 years back. I am still not using my Erg to the max of its capabilities (as in regular weekly rowing) but the past 3 weeks now have found myself actually getting back to it on the back of a lent resolution, and stil...

Re: Video idea: GoPro 30 min in an Eight from Bow perspective steady row

I love Ben Hur, one of the greatest films ever made (I still have a VHS lying around, ...) . And yes, quite a motivational setup.

Alas, not quite the thing for a 30 min piece :)

Video idea: GoPro 30 min in an Eight from Bow perspective steady row

Not sure who will read it, but what I am really missing is a video on youtube from some team's go pro 30 min at a steady state (e.g. spm 22-25). There are plenty of races looking at the painful face of stroke from cox seat during races, particularly world championships or Oxford bumps. But for me, f...

Re: 5k / 5 *1k / 20' @ 20 / 30' - decent base training

Thanks for all the feedback, some has really given me food for thought. To be honest, I loathe exercise. Specifically I unfortunately loathe cycling and running. If there was a pill I could take with the same effects, I would buy it in an instant. The only exception was rowing on the water in an eig...

5k / 5 *1k / 20' @ 20 / 30' - decent base training

Hi everyone I am reasonably experienced rower in terms of technique, including a few seasons of bumps races. However my fitness is less than what it could be, and I am lazy and have low self discipline. What I mean is if a coach or team member is standing behind me I can finish a 2k at 8 (and some y...
