    Thank you for the video. The ski erg is one of my favourite bits of equipment! I often rise up a bit on my toes because I do a lot of cross country skiing and it’s how the boot would move on a real ski.

    I found this super helpful - thanks for such an informative video! Question - does the technique change at all for us shorter athletes? I'm guilty of "squatting" when my arms get fatigued because I feel like otherwise, I'm using a ton of triceps to finish the stroke. Maybe I'm pulling too early instead of hinging properly?

    How does the damper setting translate to speed in reaching a higher number of meters in the shortest amount of time in competition?

    Good video! Question, what about this technique were people spread their arms out? Someone told me it is more efficient because lats are engaged, but it goes against my mechanical brain saying the cords driving the flywheel need to be straight up and down to reduce resistance/ increase efficiency.

      @patrickoconnell2380 Před 3 lety

      Mr Monkey people being built with different proportions can change things a little, though normally the further away from the body you get the less power you are able to generate. The lats can and should be used though!!

    @dolinmax Před 2 lety

    How would you change the damper setting for sprints (e.g., 20 cals)?
    I like the efficiency of your recommendation but even on the damper set on the higher range at a 5, I can only bring up skier to 1300 cals vs. 1600+ w/ damper at an 8.

    • @eastsidepb8139
      @eastsidepb8139 Před 2 lety

      In most cases with the damper set higher you're always going to burn more calories, I don't know 100% if it's the same on the ski erg but I do know on the rower that consistently rowing on too high of a damper can and will eventually lead to injuries or chronic pain. I used to row d1 and 90% of the people I see using it have improper form even some people I've seen give instructions/trainers. So it's not just a battle of calories. Your health is very important as well.

    • @Kristi-Eramo-OConnell
      @Kristi-Eramo-OConnell  Před 2 lety +1

      sometimes people do that to help flush out there shoulders if it is a long ski or maybe paired with a movement that also taxes the arms!

    • @jaymccormick737
      @jaymccormick737 Před 2 lety

      the butterfly wastes energy. think forehead to pockets for the ski erg stroke. this video shows an overextended arm position and exaggerated follow through. bent arms, hands above forehead or just about, hard drive keeping hands close to the body, light follow through brushing along the pockets/hips. you shouldn't be fully straightening your arms at the bottom of the stroke, it's not a tricep extension. and don't reach high overhead, it's not a pull up!

  • @michaeldudziec8409
    @michaeldudziec8409 Před 2 lety +1

    Maybe I'mmisunderstanding. I get starting at the lower setting to perfect form. However I thought the objective of this machine is to maximise VO2. Cross country skiers actually have some of the highest VO2 rating of any sport compared to runners or biking. They use there whole body actually using legs and arms getting blood going through the whole body to achieve this. Yes it is a lot harder, but thats the point building up to that. I've seen other demos using your whole body understading thats the method to achieve this.

    In a real ski situation you're going to lose in sprints if you're not going on your toes. This machine is just a simulation of the real thing. So of course one should do the same thing what he or she is doing outdoors. One should, however, change the technique during the workout. It's not possible to push full power for an hour for example.

      @mathewhopkinsw.f.g5671 Před 2 lety

      it does work, its really a split second action...for me i think it goes something like this...knee drop...hips back ...pull down to pockets probably takes less than a second. Pretty much like the rower in respect of timing. Power...patience ...patience. One for the down then two/three for the recovery. The 1:2 ratio will work regardless of stroke pace.
