There is an undergraduate thesis from Umea University trying to develop testing protocol and a model for estimating VO2max off SkiErg: https://umu.diva-portal.org/smash/get/diva2:1618188/FULLTEXT01.pdf I wouldn't trust the result as this is undergrad thesis after all :-) And I have a hard time under...

I noticed that some managed to install [SkiGrip](https://exxentric.com/store/kpulley-category/training-accessories-kpulley/skigrip-elite/)-like handles on SkiErg. Where do I buy those (preferably EU but US shops also work)? Your experience using them? The elite sometimes use them on SkiErg (see e.g....

I watched the guy who set the SkiErg marathon record on YouTube use a cadence between high 40s and low 50s, which is consistent with my natural cadence. I counted world cup skiers and longer distance ski classics skiers double poling in races and they are using a higher cadence of around 60. It's p...

Vau, I didn't imagine people do workouts beyond 1h on SkiErg, I'm impressed. My main goal is to use SkiErg to aid my long distnace (classic) skiing (distances 40K to 90K), and I never do workouts longer than 1h. The types of workouts I use SkiErg for are: - Z1-2 sessions for 45min-60min, mostly when...

Anyone doing endurance erging on SkiErg? What distances do you ski?

I am wondering the exact same thing. My feeling is that roller skis are a better investment than SkiErg. I believe SkiErg could be most useful for interval training and form check-ins (controller environment with exact measurements). I feel that it does help me: I can still work out on days when I c...

I use it to do 5K test, sometimes I do easy 5K or 10Ks, and occasionally I will add interval training in there. I have mostly done 15x30/30r sprints, I now want to try other workouts such as 6x5m/2r and 8x8m/2r.

Hey there! Did my first ever 5,000m on the SkiErg, was kinda fun, kinda sucked, but super glad I attempted it! How is 28:20.2 for 5000 meters? Also, how's my form looking? (Sorry for the janky angle and footage!) https://youtu.be/nAnDrAaoKBA Your body weight is very relevant. What matters is the po...

Mine is ~39s/m and I'm wondering how to increase it. Could be technique, could be something else.
