I recommend pull-ups (or chin-ups) and dips, regardless of whether you row or bike. I wish. Unfortunately ever since my last back surgery, anything that has me hanging my legs hurts my back A LOT. It's like if I decompress my lower spine it gets worse. :( I'll defer to your physiotherapist. Maybe w...

I wish. Unfortunately ever since my last back surgery, anything that has me hanging my legs hurts my back A LOT. It's like if I decompress my lower spine it gets worse.

So I'm coming back after a brief forced hiatus thanks to a combination of the flu in November, Covid and Strep throat in December, and then a new spinal injury. Due to primarily the newest addition to my ever growing list of spinal injuries and surgeries, I've decided to get a BikeErg instead of con...

So last march I believe I Injured my back lifting weights. It wasn't really apparent other than some soreness until I was running and I felt severe pain which felt like it had crippled me mid run. I crawled home and rested for a few weeks. I began stretching and back rehabbing daily and when pain r...

Go with what seems comfortable. Folks vary a lot with cycling cadence. Alright, good to know! Thank you! Remamber you'll need to adjust the drag(as in like a bike gear) to suit your preferred cadence/power and not leave it at one setting like the rower, Yeah. Only had it for about two days now and ...

2 hard workouts and the rest steady state would work fine for cycling.

For steady state on the rower I was aiming for 22s/m. Is there a cadence I should shoot for with the BikeErg?

I'm coming off yet another spinal injury and considering the amount of back surgeries I've had to have now I'm thinking of just selling the rower and getting a BikeErg instead since it seems like it would be better for my back. Since I've been down for a little more than 6 months (plus also going th...

First off, sorry if this has been asked or discussed before, but am I going crazy? I recall ErgData sending a lot more data to Apple Fitness/Health (like distance!), but I'm looking at old workouts now and I'm only seeing HR, calories, and time recorded. Is there anyway to get this data syncing to A...

sorry in advance for my horrible english, I'm a german with only school english... before the update, my rowing workout was displayed in kilometres in the activity app. now only the duration is displayed in minutes. Does anyone have a tip on how to set this back to distance covered (i.e. kilometres...

I tried multiple ways to get heartbeat data from the Apple Watch integrate with the concept2 logbook. Ultimately I came to the conclusion that that would happen only when ErgData supports an Apple Watch app. Till then, I use Polar h10 chest monitor connected to Apple Watch and pm5 via Bluetooth. Er...
