I have decided to pony up for Asensei. There is a 40% off sale right now, that coupled with "subscribing" brought the cost down to $85.50 for a year.
One of the things that pushed me over the edge was the on and off erg stuff, particularly dark horse. Obviously I haven't done anything yet, my PM5 should be here tomorrow, but I think this will be good and keep me focused with some direction.
Rowing isn't my ONLY thing, I want to be the old guy that people say "no, you aren't X age! you seem 20 years younger than that!" My wife and I are already decades younger than most people our age, and we are lazy! We do bowflex, free weights, she has an old recumbent stationary bike she uses because the rowing hurts her bad knees if she does too much. I tend to overdo the weights a little and then hurt for too long
Here goes the next "season"!
