I’ve been keeping an eye out for a used Concept2 rower over the last few years. Yesterday one finally came up at a good price, so I drove 30 minutes over to Midland and picked it up. What better day to break it in than during today’s winter storm, so I brought it in to the living room.
Yeah… I’m going to loving having this at home.
I checked the computer and it only had 13,520 lifetime meters on it! To put that in perspective, I rowed 2,500 meters in my first workout, so the machine is essentially brand new.

I don’t use my Model E all that often because I’m usually outside running or biking. But it’s so nice having a solid machine to do workouts indoors when the weather is crap (like right now). Rowing 10km every couple weeks though takes its toll the next day!

I’ll have to try a 10k. I think the most I’ve done at the gym was 6-7k of intervals.

I usually do 5 2k segments at 24,26,28,30,28 spm. I’ve been trying to keep my 500m time closer to 2:00 although that’s tough for me still. 😬

Great machine! Now that we are all moved into our new house, I’ve been using mine more often since I have a dedicated space for it in my basement gym.
