Rowing looks like a good form of exercise. Thinking about getting a Concept 2 Model D. Does anyone have any experience with this machine? Thanks

    Yep - I have one at home it is the best zero impact all body work out you can get.

    Three things to keep in mind

    1. keep the damper at 3 is there is a drag test to tell if you are in the right zone - this is not a intensity measure it just mimic a heavy boat.

    2. It is about the effort you put in the harder you row the more watts you use the better (more intense) the work out gets - if you row slow but hard it is better that fast and easy.

    3. Watch the video correct form when rowing prevent injury and gets more from it

    I have very bad knee and this is just the best thing out there for me!
