Rowing machine
Setting up the exercise on the rowing machine. We have two criteria in the application: time and speed. The time is shown either by the machine or separately, but not all rowing machines tell you the speed. Some have speed steps, others have an electronic display and show you the power in watts. Could we have other criteria for measuring effort besides "speed"? And in the current case what does the speed refer to, in kilometers/miles per hour or is it a preset gear of the device?
Answer
Hi Ovi,
Thank you for your suggestion.
We understand that different machines have varying displays and metrics, which can sometimes create confusion.
Yes, we could incorporate additional criteria for measuring effort beyond just speed and time. For instance, distance can also be a valuable metric to track during rowing sessions. It's been voted on already at: Adding Detailed Cardio.
To clarify your question about speed: it can refer to different units depending on your machine. If your rowing machine displays speed in kilometers per hour (km/h), you can use that measurement directly. If it uses a preset gear system, you can input the corresponding speed value as best suited to your workout.
Thanks again for your feedback. I look forward to seeing this get more votes.
