Getting Started—or Getting Back—on your RowErg, SkiErg or BikeErg?

We’ve put together a series of workouts designed to get you off to a good start, and offer choices for how you can access these workouts—on our website, on Instagram or by podcast. Each workout focuses on a topic:

• Workout 1: Getting Comfortable on Your Machine
• Workout 2: Experimenting with Stroke Rate (or the cycle time through your stroke) and Your Power
• Workout 3: Introducing Longer Duration Intervals with increasing Stroke Rate Targets
• Workout 4: Focusing on Long Steady State Efforts
• Workout 5: Seeing how fast, or how hard, or how much power you can put into short 1 minute intervals
• Workout 6: Establishing your Benchmark
