Haha. Yeah, it did expand a bit. But I tried making a more on the nose version, and knew that those try it once and give up would still be left doing that if I didn’t give a fuller reason why the elements are important.

Send me an address!

Glad you enjoyed

Glad you liked it!

I think I’ve done a few strapless. But I’ll do the next 30 with feet out. If nothing else, it’ll give me something else to talk about!!

You have to remember though, all machines are different. Mine is set to 6 right now, giving a drag factor of 165 - all because of the HYROX training I’m doing. But another, dirtier machine at 6 May only give 110 drag factor. That said, I’ll try to work out a way to get this info on screen without slowing the videos down.

@@rowalong Ya. Good point.

Well, hopefully if you do it right, you’ll look anything BUT daft. You’ll actually look like you’ll know what you’re doing.

Not really. The point of pointing the toes is to get all of the power and momentum into the machine. So that when you get to the back, you’re kinda floating there. Neither moving forwards or backwards. And pointing toes removes any force from your feet. Then sending the handle away and tilting over your hips is the way you start the momentum to return to the front again.

Yeah. Although for me, once I get to 26spm, I need the straps. Not for getting forwards, but just to stop falling off the back. Maybe I should watch my own video about this!!

It depends if there's a lip on the pedals to keep your feet from sliding off when they're horizontal at the catch. To be honest, I'm not sure how well it would work. I think I have a machine that has swivel pedals, so I'll give it a try - but you may want to stay in the straps, and just focus on not pulling yourself forwards.

It is quite amazing how in one love, the forces across your body totally change. Sounds like it’s really working for you.

@@rowalong yea I like it alot

It'll help you burn calories, and if you have a good technique, it can strengthen your core. But fat/weightloss should be done in the kitchen first, not the gym. If you don't hit a calorie deficit by being careful about what you're eating, then the exercise just won't cut it for you.

True. Thanks for your response

Great habit to have gotten into!

Or rowing without a heart rate strap?

Ergzone changed the access for RowAlong. To see the legacy workouts, you now need to subscribe. Recent workouts are now under the “Free RowAlong workouts” track. It’s a shame. I’ve seen use on Ergzone plummet since this happened. I now have to question whether to continue to maintain and upload sessions.

What does a subscription cost? If you’re going to continue with them I’d consider buying one. But if you’re leaving, no way. I try using erg data while watching, but the sound volume continuously drops.

@@djcip1 it’s only $5 a month. And I need to check the numbers after a year or so before making any decisions.
