- Make sure that your training is effective and repeatable by setting the drag factor each time you train or test on your Concept 2 Rower, Ski-Erg or Bike-Erg.
Every rower will vary in the level of resistance that it provides at a given damper setting (1-10) and a given machine may also vary from day to day or week to week, and that is why it is important to use the drag factor to make your training repeatable so you can monitor progress and gains!

Thanks for that. Just what I meeded
Thanks for that one Ben as you said no two machines are the same Know what im doing when back in the gym
I can’t wait till the gyms reopen!
@@thestrengthfactory. to right love riding but love the training
Ooooooh that’s where the thing is. I had no idea how to make the machine go “harder” and only use the gym at like midnight so couldn’t ask anyone 😅
@@Vexarax 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@thestrengthfactory. nooo I just got back from the gym - I couldn’t find any nobs to make it harder 😭 I was on it for 30 mins and didn’t feel anything - no heart race increase. Ended up just doing level 15 incline on the treadmill instead. I wish I could work out how to make the rowing machine function!?
@@Vexarax maybe google the specific brand they have there?
@@thestrengthfactory. yeah definitely! it’s called Elite Fitness Pro I tried having a quick Google in the gym but I’m going to have to watch some CZcams videos :D definitely need more resistance as my core is already very strong (can do 100+ weighted sit-ups easily as a petite 5’2 female etc). My core strength may be making the rowing machine less effective so hopefully I can work out how to turn the resistance up - not using the feet strap things either as I heard that makes it more challenging 🙏🏻
What is the equivalent of the 125-130 rowing machine Drag Factor in the skierg?
Probably about 85- 90, that is what we tend to use.
