Re: Seat Pain, Feels like 2 Positions that "Switch" almost with a "Pop"

I got the Citius Remex ProW today, low version, but I am not sure it has solved things better then the cheap seat just yet. I swapped back the stock seat, and with the pad it seemed much better at first, so much so that I possibly made the mistake of setting my feet from 1 back to 3 where I am more ...

Re: Seat Pain, Feels like 2 Positions that "Switch" almost with a "Pop"

So I tried widening the foot stance, and to my surprise it did not seem to have any effect. I did a mild session with the cheap amazon rower cushioned seat, making sure to sit to the rear, and the feet at 1, and while not perfect it was much better. I can stay mostly in the reclined position, and ge...

In general, just constantly engaging the muscle group also seems to help ...

Try no layback, low feet, straight back, head high. Yeah I can row like this and stay in one of the states, or I can row more reclined and stay in the other. Neither feels good as a permanent state, I want to be able to move normally. Simple. Remove the seat on the cheap rower and install it on the...

Seat Pain, Feels like 2 Positions that "Switch" almost with a "Pop"

Hi All, I have been rowing infrequently a few years on a cheap Amazon rower, but recently got the Concept2. I am very tall and very thin which is I am sure the root of this problem. I have a painful seating issue, where it feel likes there are 2 states my ischum/muscles want to be in, one that is mo...
