sallykate Apr 2011 10:40am, 28 Apr 2011 1,255 posts	Quote Pin sallykate I'll have a go today or tomorrow and see how far I get -- could be a useful weekly fitness benchmark! based on my 5000m PB I'm likely to be about the 3300-3400 mark but probably less at the moment. And I have DOMS from starting the 100 pushups challenge!
sallykate Apr 2011 10:41am, 28 Apr 2011 1,256 posts	Quote Pin sallykate PH just take the stroke rate down slightly -- if you're rowing at 26spm say on level 3 then try 22spm on level 5

plodding hippo Apr 2011 10:46am, 28 Apr 2011 33,060 posts	Quote Pin plodding hippo ha ha, Im doing the pushups and sit ups too Ive always done level 3, am comfy at a stroke rate of 28-30
lammo Apr 2011 10:51am, 28 Apr 2011 3,847 posts	Quote Pin lammo Ooh, i'm going to have a go at this i think. Haven't rowed for about a month but i managed 5k in 21:42 last time, so all out i would like to get to nearly 4k. This is the torture machine as far as i am concerned, and the machine that gives my highest HR, i might measure that too, last tme i did it, got to 196

HappyG(rrr) Apr 2011 11:07am, 28 Apr 2011 14,785 posts	Quote Pin HappyG(rrr) BTW, I've been told that the resistance doesn't make it easier or harder regarding pace (distance over time - the subject of this challenge). 10 at a slower stroke rate = 1 at a higher stroke rate, but you'll get same distance for equivalent "effort". It's a different style not a harder difficulty. Does this make sense? Is it right?! :-)G
