Description
Originally designed as a training tool for cross-country skiers, the SkiErg has become popular in the fitness community for its ability to engage the legs, core, and arms in smooth, continuous motion. Using the same flywheel and Performance Monitor as the RowErg, it offers a distinctive workout that builds strength and endurance. Suitable for all athletes, it can be adapted for those with lower body injuries. The PM5, Smartphone Cradle, and Handle Hooks are included. The SkiErg floor stand with caster wheels is also included for flexibility and mobility.
Skiing provides a unique movement, offering an intense upper body and core workout while involving the lower body. The SkiErg effectively targets the glutes, hamstrings, triceps, lats, and shoulders in ways other cardio workouts cannot. The SkiErg delivers a low-impact workout that is gentle on the knees and ankles, making it ideal for athletes with lower leg injuries. Injured users can train while sitting or kneeling, focusing on the upper body and core.
The PM5 Performance Monitor tracks metrics like time, distance, pace, calories, and watts. Standard on every SkiErg, it self-calibrates for accurate comparisons of pulls and workouts. The Concept2 Online Logbook allows users to store data and compare results with skiers worldwide. ErgData, a free app for iOS and Android, connects to the Performance Monitor. It lets users train virtually on the Real Time Loop, set up workouts, and access the Concept2 Workout of the Day. The app tracks progress and provides real-time workout data.
Concept2 machines are known for their durability and can withstand heavy use in gyms and homes. They are easy to maintain, allowing users to focus on training. Though best known for rowing, many Concept2 team members are skiers. In northern Vermont, where winters are long and snowy, skiing and rowing are perfect for cross-training in opposite seasons. The SkiErg was conceived in 1982, using parts from the Model A Indoor Rower. After years of development, it was released in 2009, followed by the second-generation model in 2014.
