Started cycling to work when i'm in the office. Had to build an e-bike mind as tried cycling out of the hill of where i live now and practically died by the time I summitted it. It's only a very slight gradient but at over a mile it just grinds away at you and yeah i am woefully unfit, and it practically killed me.

E-Bike though, i'm up it no problem, still an effort like but nowhere near as difficult and the following 10 miles after it to get to work is a nothing burger, same for the trip back.

I also rock a concept 2 at home, but at the moment it's an expensive and terrible clothes airer. Plan on getting back into it. My father currently rows 12km every other day, he's a pensioner and is putting my fat ass to shame :)

Clock'd 0Ne:
I'd be very interested to hear your thoughts on the Concept 2 especially if you can compare it to any others, as practically everyone says there's no point buying any other rowing machine because they are that good and the build quality is excellent but they're not exactly cheap.

I've been skiving off work about 6 weeks now, and my gf has been over more making proper meals (instead of my pre-made and frozen pasta I eat night)

I got fat really quick... like the rest of me is normal but I look pregnant


need to get back to graft and work it off a bit, shocking how fast I piled it on

bear:
Too little

I've got a concept 2 rower, got it not long before the COVID scam, I could have sold it during said scam for a fortune as they went through the roof!

If you get one they're all pretty much the same as it's based on a big RSJ let's be honest ;D but just ensure you get a PM3 monitor or above, you can link these to PCs and stuff (if you cba)

Obviously budget for floor space, I use mine for half a year as I like to cycle in the summer. (You can split it in half and it takes up a lot less space vertically)


Maintenance on the concepts are cleaning the rollers under the seat and oiling the chain (takes months to be required) It's an RSJ and they're built to last to the extreme, we have the same handle from when it was made in the late 90s I think, it's made of wood and the more modern ones are plastic, it's been in a gym and a school prior to me having it, it's not breaking any time soon!
