Effective Cardiovascular Workout

Quick to deploy, uncomplicated to stow away, and highly effective. Indoor rowing machines have come a long way in the 21st century, and the Black Concept 2 RowErg Rower is widely regarded as a benchmark model for the category.

Measure Of PM5 Performance

In terms of capabilities, the PM5 is a major improvement over previous models. Displaying your workout stats in crisp black and white, this device lets you keep tabs on everything from your distance covered to the number of calories you've burned and the power your workout is generating. Heart rate monitors and the ErgData app (purchased separately) can communicate wirelessly with one another. The monitor arm is adjustable, allowing for optimal viewing in any posture. Designed for head-to-head machine competition and playable on a USB flash drive.

Flywheel And Dumper

With its fanning flywheel, the Concept 2 harnesses the power of air resistance. The RowErg Rower, formerly known as the Model D, features a special spiral damper that can be adjusted from a setting of 1 to a setting of 10 to change the amount of air that enters the flywheel housing on each stroke. This operates similarly to the gears of a bicycle in that it modifies the amount of effort necessary to get momentum from one stroke to the next. No. 10 is the most open and provides the greatest protection from the wind. Generally speaking, most people should use a volume level between 3 and 5.
