StrengthErg Rest Time

Post by hohjoe » April 7th, 2025, 4:10 pm

I used my StrengthErg today for benchmark testing and I noticed the rest time between reps is 10 seconds. Some of the workouts suggest 1 minute or 90 seconds. Is there a way to change the default rest time between sets from 10 seconds to something else?

I'm using the Ergdata app and not a PM5. It's in the app I need to modify the rest time.

So, I’m going to answer my own question. It wasn’t anything I figured out. I spoke to Josh at Concept2, and he did the research and called me back to give me the info. Many thanks to, Josh.

The default timer cannot be changed. However, a rest timer can be setup to display. Once the three beginning reps have been completed and the rep count starts tapping on a dialog box opens a sub menu and from there the Rest Timer can be selected and saved in the dialog box that was selected. The Rest Timer will count up in seconds. I swiped to the far-right screen in the workout display and there are more dialog boxes available to modify. I picked a dialog box I was interested in and set the rest timer there and I can see the rest time at the end of each rep.
