Got my concept two April of 2023 and I’m down 80 pounds! With a good diet and consistent rowing the fat will melt off you people

Nice! How often do you row for that?

The form portion was very helpful! My shoulders were getting burned out so quickly and I couldn't figure out why. I'm gonna try this form out.

I love your explanation of rowing technique, I definitely did the robot today on my first row. I picked up a used Ergatta last night for a steal. I needed something quiet and easy to store (and not bad looking) since we live in a smaller open-concept house. Buying used is a great way to get a quality item for just a bit more than amazon prices, especially workout equipment, usually it's in almost new condition.

My gym, 24 Hour Fitness has Concept 2’s. Use them about 3 times per week, usually 30 minute sessions. In the years of using them, only once has one broken down, otherwise, they’re built to last. I’ll be moving into a house soon and buying a Concept 2 for my own use. Thanks for your great video!

Happy New Year! Amazing and concise!!! Austin I love the no BS, high energy and detailed knowledge in this video. You managed to cram tips from a bunch of your videos quickly into this one. Thanks 🙏 The only change I am making this year is to get the tablet holder for my Concept 2. Watching a show while rowing will my the minutes glide by.

Hey Austin, great video! I like the idea about using a budget rower and you asked for ways to incorporate it into your workout. Usually I row on a waterrower performance ergometer, yet also rowed for a year on a C2. I tried the RP3 and Biorower and also some cheaper machines from Decathlon. Currently I got a fairly cheap air rowing machine standing beside my desk and also thought about ways on how to use it. The data being shown is absolute bogus. So my advice: Take out the batteries of the monitor and just use a smartwatch. Look at your heartrate, do either aerobic or anaerobic workouts or just try to follow along video workouts on youtube. If you row 30 or 45 minutes, and you get a little sweaty, this should already do the trick. Nonetheless, I second your thoughts about the digital output. With some new machines this season this is slowly getting better (at least in europe). Best Ulf

awesome to see an upload Austin ! I watched so many of your videos in June 2023 when I got my C2 and since then my fitness has increased so much even spreading out into weight training thanks for all your great information and tips for new rowers!

My favorite workout since ~1986, C2 Model A days. I love the C2,, finally bought one of my own during/just after Covid and have been doing the same basic workout I did back then, not as fast now at 72 years old but was able to get back to a continuous 20 minute workout ~4km. Rowing is the best workout and TT is the best online rowing coach out there. His tip about back pain really helped my form coming back. Sit on those hammies!!! And... yes... C2 and the PM5 monitor is the best standard.

@NatDan_404 9 ай бұрын

Cheers for the 2024 inspirational video Austin. By lowering the footplates 1 setting, I was able to drop my splits from 2:10 to 2:03 for a 2k row. The sub 8 min 2k now looks possible! All the best for 2024.

Love your videos and love my Concept2 RowErg - it is the benchmark. I started with a water rower - mad data though: it seemed to suggest I was burning thousands of calories and moving just a few hundred meters. Moved to the Concept2 and there’s so much data out there - especially the data that helps you understand how well you’re doing for your age and experience.

@richardjohnson5306 8 ай бұрын

Hi Austin, great video! I bought a water rower with smartrow, which replaces the standard pulley and transmits workout data to your phone via bluetooth. It's supposedly much more accurate than the standard monitor and I would love to see you cover it down the line with how it compares to the concept2 monitor. Thanks

@maseraticc2834 9 ай бұрын

Thanks Austin that's a great video which has helped re motivate me to get back onto my Concept2. When I used to row 2/3 times a week, around my torso I lost so much weight and became so much more toned - so I am now ready to hit the rower again. Thanks for posting and happy new year! 😀👍

@monkeyb1820 9 ай бұрын

if the foot plates don't lower, someone can probably put some thick pad under the butt. I stared using a foam kneeling pad (it's a fairly firm foam) on my C2 seat. It's been good for butt comfort, and it gives a bit of extra height boost.

Thanks Austin for the great motivation, I have a concept2 for a couple years and love the machine. I have done the rowing with kettle bell swings ,squats etc. but the belly just does not want to go away. I am 63 and very active. Just wondering can rowing get rid of belly fat?

I have found that a combination of intermittent fasting and a ketogenic diet has worked well for me. I also add a fair amount of abdominal work to my workouts. I’m 62 and have a flat stomach again.

Like all new drummers speed up over time, I have a difficult time maintaining pace, rate, power, whatever metric you choose. Watching the monitor starts to become obsessive, and takes away from the experience. I'd rather be a lazy Five Nights At Freddy's player & get jump scared from not watching the monitors enough. The search is to develop an internal regulator to keep pace in check. Thinking about form causes my output to climb and within a minute or two I need to slow down to catch up on oxygen, which feels terrible. The times I've been able to avoid that modality the workout was much more enjoyable. Somehow it seems tied to accepting at the onset that I'm not attempting PR. sorry for the long comment. any suggestions welcome. Great videos.

I row 20 minutes at home and my lifecore machine says I traveled 3,200 meters. When I use the concept 2 machine at the gym for 20 minutes the machine says I traveled 3,600 meters. The resistance settings on both machines (max for concept 2) feel about the same.
