New Personal Best! Brag About That New Pb!

[hjs]

Good work Paul, maybe do 100m reps? 10x 100 on 2 min. For stuff like this, maxspeed matters most, get that lower and you will be faster.

[johnlvs2run]

I reach max between 5-7 strokes. I test low pull as a part of a 5-7x100m/1:00r workout. I usually do it in interval 2-3 as I need 1-2 hard intervals before I'm able to really max out(even though I warm up properly at different speeds/rates)

Thanks much. I'll try them that way the next time. Congrats on your new 100 PB!

Congrats Gammmmo! Got to agree with hjs, do 100m intervals to generate higher top speed.
Congrats to you as well Minimoof123. If you only row once a week then that is a great score!

Thanks John Forgot to connect ErgData for the 100m, which was very annoying as I wanted to look at stroke data. Managed several pulls at 1:11.
New 100m pb of 14.9(pace 1:14.5)
Then some minutes rest and 5x100m/1:00r. Interval 2 to be the fastest and try a new lp pb

Solid, but I do rank your other stuff higher. Rating is relative low, in the rankings
I even see a guy rate above 100

Will try to get close to 15 myself this winter.

Tried a 500m PB this morning, I was actually helping the wife on the erg and she said 'you do it', 1:41 from a 2 min warm up. First time I've tried something that short.

The 100m was done at 73spm, no need to rate any higher as it will not go any faster for me. I have tried +80spm but the only thing that happens is that I loose “connection” with the machine and my technique starts to fail big time. Of course my other stuff is better 100m is my worst distance.
I think you should aim for sub 15, you look like a powerful man

That 14.0s 100m at 145spm is wrong data from ergdata. Why hasn’t he claimed the wr if it is legit?

Plus he's 181 pounds, and his second fastest was 18.4 at 72spm, so that time is very unlikely.

Been plugging away the last months averaging about 55-60K per week between the rower and skierg. Did a 2K on the rower this morning followed by a 2K on the skierg, felt good despite having a bit of a cold.

Decided to try a 2K for real, been at least 2 years, ended up with a current era PB of 7:34.0 at 30spm. Pretty pleased with this since I don't do a lot of interval training. Finished the morning with another 2K on the skierg.

And my 13yo daughter swam a 19:07 1650 this morning at her meet. 1 minute under the current state qualifying time for her age group. So, it's been a good day.

Well done on the PB Kini and that's a really great effort by your daughter

Did not check the rankings. Wierd indeed, he uses a very low drag, that can,t be right.

See btw also Eddy Hall on the list... So enhanced times are also valid

If thats max, so it is.

We will see, would not call myself Powerfull anymore but we will see. Just back home, not seen an ergo in two weeks plus a 9 hour yetlag pffff. Will pick things up again though.
Yep 100 is your less strongest side, same on the rower.

[Anth_F]

I even see a guy rate above 100

Wouldn't mind seeing that first hand!

I'd likely collapse from dizziness off trying to watch him though.

Are you saying the C2 honor system is not working as it should?

@kini62 - Congrats to you both!
