join me!

I will join you! I purchased my rower in January, and I haven't used it to its full potential. This will be great to get back into the swing of things, thank you!

excellent!!!!

this is the challenge that always gets me back on the machine :)

I found a good deal on a WaterRower on Craigslist and I'm picking it up this weekend. Does anybody know where i can find some good beginner level rowing workouts?

check out the concept2 website

lots of variety there

daily challenges etc

Thanks. I'm looking forward to getting into rowing. I assume any of the Concept 2 workouts can still be done just fine using a Water Rower?

as far as i know :)

Wow, this looks GREAT!!!!! I've been jonesing to get a Concept2 for home but haven't pulled the trigger yet..... This might be what I needed! :)

I would like to try it
 

I have not been rowing but really NEED to start, so I will join you.

Anyone have a great place to buy a Concept 2? I am looking at Rogue Fitness who I like dealing with, but just doing some due diligence to see if I can find a better price since it's some pretty serious scratch.

Thanks!!
