Bip Roberts posted:If you get a rowing machine basically you should get a Concept2 or nothing. QFT. Those water-rowers aren't all they're cracked up to be unless you absolutely can't have the noise of a flywheel. I would say something like Rowperfect probably rocks the socks, but I haven't actually ever used one - I'm super jealous of anyone who's got that kind of setup. The idea behind it is very well thought out, though - making the flywheel a moving part supposedly emulates the momentum retention and decay that occurs in a boat when your technique varies. If you're flinging your weight back and forth in a boat, you'll be killing the boat's ability to run, because the boat is jerking back and forth equivalently - but on an erg you can just heave on the fucker and not really care, which is a bad habit. It doesn't really matter for cardio/strength conditioning, which is what most ergometers get used for... but hey. strangemusic has a new favorite as of 23:34 on Sep 24, 2014 |

psyopmonkey posted:It depends on how long you go and how intense you make it. This, and: Biomechanically it's very good for you. You will work your core, back, shoulders, legs, glutes, and somewhat your arms also (pro tip: don't yank the handle with your arms to try to generate power. It comes from the legs and stabilizing with the core.) There's not a lot of ways you can hurt yourself doing it other than hyperextending something, and it does not take a lot of effort to learn good technique. You must learn good technique. Generally this boils down to keeping your back at a stable/ideal range of angles, not letting your head and torso fly all over the place during the stroke, and maintaining co-ordination between your hand and leg movements. You are free to do long, steady workouts to build your endurance, or short, intense, repetitive workouts to build explosiveness and power. You can challenge yourself to build power by aiming for a fast split at a slow stroke rate, try for smoothness and consistency at a high stroke rate, or anything in between. Any rowing machine worth a drat has a computer that can show you all kinds of extremely useful metrics (split times, stroke rate, power, distance, calories...) for you to measure your performance and keep an accurate log of how you're progressing. And most machines have an adjustable damper to make the resistance easier or harder. strangemusic has a new favorite as of 05:21 on Sep 25, 2014 |

If not for the fact that the very last tier on Expert is the world's biggest poo poo show (Reign in Blood AND One... my fingers just cringed reflexively) it's far and away the most fun I've had with a GH game. Plus, "Slither" and "Impulse" are amazing.

To the guy who bought the MX-5: let your awesome flag fly. My dad had a Miata ages ago and it was the best little car. To contribute: I bought this absolute loving tank of a stir fry pan. Normally these are like $300 or more, I got it for $150. I'm going to cook EVERYTHING.

Swoosh, stand flying towards me. He dented my bass, but it didn't hit me. He was fired later that month for that and other incidents. I took home and kept the schools bass, which was a nicer version of mine. Oh man. I know you said you totally deserved it or whatever, but what would possess you to do something so crazy, not to mention disrespectful? I've sung in ensembles for years. Not to advocate violent throwing of objects, but I can't imagine anyone telling a director off in front of the choir/band and not suffering immediately. strangemusic has a new favorite as of 07:46 on Jan 16, 2015 |
