Der Preis liegt im oberen Bereich. Dafür bekommt man allerdings ein super verarbeitetes und ein super stabiles Trainingsgerät. Es ist schnell montiert. Das Gerät kann überall schnell aufgestellt werden. Beim Training ist das Windrad nicht zu laut. Die Geräusche bleiben im Zimmer. Sind also nicht in der gesamten Wohnung zu hören. Das Concept2 RowErg ist so gut wie wartungsfrei. Es macht Spaß darauf zu trainieren. Das Display liefert übersichtlich die wichtigen Trainingsdaten. Eine Herzfrequenz-Uhr ist schnell gekoppelt. Über die App ErgData werden die Trainingseinheiten professionell aufgearbeitet. Per E-Mail gibt es Trainingsanreize (Workout of the Day). Mir persönlich gefallen die vorgeschlagenen Intervalle sehr gut. Ein Concept2-YouTube-Channel liefert sehr gute Trainingstipps und Anwendungshinweise. Eine klare Kaufempfehlung!

Acquistato su Amazon con un piccolo sconto rispetto al prezzo di listino e arrivato in anticipo di 5 giorni, per cui nulla da eccepire per quanto riguarda la spedizione, precisa e veloce.
Per quanto riguarda l’attrezzo, mi sono informato per qualche tempo su Youtube e altri siti prima di decidere per acquistarlo. Cercavo un attrezzo che mi permettesse di fare Cardio visto che non potevo praticare la corsa per dei problemi ai piedi (piede piatto), e cercavo soprattutto un attrezzo che mi permettesse di allenarmi bene e allo stesso tempo non fosse troppo monotono e questa versione di Concept 2, ha presente due punti di forza principali, il programma Computer PM5 e il fatto che sia un modello D.
1) Il PM5 è un programma che permette diverse funzioni, ne elenco solo alcune importanti. Si ha la possibilità di sfruttare esercizi in training, si può connettere a dispositivi come Tablet, Smartphone per usare app di Training e in più ha collegamenti Ant+ e Bluethoot per collegarsi a Smartwatch Sportivi e Cardiofrequenziometri con fascia toracica. Il Computer mi è arrivato già aggiornato all’ultimo firmware e si può impostare la lingua Italiana.
2) Il modello D è comodo perchè semplicemente il vogatore è composto da 2 pezzi, uno con la ruota ad aria del vogatore e Computer ripiegabile e l’altro pezzo la slitta con il sedile. Si possono agganciare e sganciare al volo tramite una staffa e si possono ripiegare poi in un angolo occupando pochissimo spazio.
Prima di acquistare questo vogatore, devo dire comunque che la cosa più importante è che rende pienamente come esperienza di esercizio e allenamento se collegato ad un Tablet, ne sto usando uno che avevo già in casa in versione Android (ma può essere collegato in alternativa anche alla TV di casa, importante è che abbia connessione bluethoot e Android).
Dico che il tablet è importante perchè mi sono iscritto inizialmente ad una app, quella che uso attualmente si chiama EXR (che si può usare gratuitamente per 14 giorni per poi abbonarsi), e dopo averlo configurato con i vostri dati, sono presenti sia programmi di allenamento dinamici, gare, giochi e altro e selezionando uno di questi programmi di allenamento, esso andrà a modificare dinamicamente la resistenza della ruota e del vogatore, impostando diversi livelli di difficoltà, per cui dovrete remare seguendo il ritmo imposto dal programma, tipo bracciate, distanza, potenza ecc…ci sono diversi livelli e training per i vostri gusti.
Senza contare anche che mentre remerete vi troverete come se foste in un mondo virtuale, dove è presente una barca che rappresenta voi e ogni volta che remerete la barca di muove al vostro ritmo, e potrete scegliere percorsi, luoghi, ambienti per non annoiarvi nelle lunghe sessioni.
Ne esistono anche altre app e dovrete andare poi a studiarli, sul sito della concept 2 ufficiale sono presenti una lista delle app compatibili e delle loro caratteristiche, per ora mi trovo bene con questa.
APPUNTO: l’app EXR è in lingua inglese e sono presenti altre 4 lingue ma non l’Italiano.
Il rematore strutturalmente è molto robusto e sopratutto stabile, di ottima fattura e costruzione, ci remo da due settimane e mi trovo benissimo. Premetto che peso al momento 97kg e alto 180cm, nessun problema con questo rematore come stabilità e comodità.
Per concludere inserisco un altro appunto, il programma si collega al mio orologio sportivo per registrare la sessione di allenamento oltre che al tablet che registra anche questo la sessione in contemporranea. Unica cosa è che non rilevava il mio battito cardiaco dal mio orologio e non lo trasmetteva al tabet e ho dovuto prendermi comunque una fascia toracica cardiofrequenzimetro Ant+ e ho risolto il problema.
Attrezzatura completa usata da me:
– Rematore Concept 2 Modello D
– Tablet 7°/10° Android (che tenevo già a casa, ma potete usare anche la tv se compatibile)
– Orologio Garmin Venu 3 (si collega al rematore e registra la sessione allenamento completa sul sito Garmin con tutti i dati completi. Non trasmette però la frequenza al Tablet/App. NON E’ COMUNQUE OBBLIGATORIO o NECESSARIO. Ma essendo sportivo registro sempre le sessioni.)
– Cardiofrequenzimetro a fascia toracica modello Garmin HRM-Pro Plus (Per poter trasmettere/visualizzare la propria frequenza cardiaca sul Tablet/APP durante allenamento e al rematore. Se possedete uno smartwatch controllate se è compatibile per trasmettere i dati al tablet, diversamente vi servirà una fascia cardiofrequenzimetro compatibile.).
– App EXR con Abbonamento 1 anno (primi 14 giorni gratuiti per provarlo)
Per ora è un ottimo attrezzo e mi trovo soddisfatto pienamente e i risultati si cominciano a vedere.

I am new to rowing, and was looking for something supplement my normal bike and hike routine. Reading reviews on the Concept2 Model D, along with using one in a local YMCA, convinced me this was a solid machine. I have not been disappointed.
The unit was neatly packaged and easily moved to an upstairs room in two large pieces. I put it together without any instructions — very simple and intuitive. The display comes on immediately with any movement and while I did have to get out the instructions to see the variety of options and screens, it was easy to understand. The display itself is large enough to see easily in all conditions. A quick look at the Concept2 website provided some basics on correct rowing form and the meaning of the display metrics.
I have been using the Concept2 every day for the past couple of weeks — 15-20 minutes at a time at half resistance. it continues to be quiet and provide a vigorous workout. It definitely is using sets of muscles that are underused in biking and hiking, notably upper body.
If I have any reservations it might be about the durability of the plastic rollers under the seat. Keeping the track clean along with proper seating provides the optimal smooth back and forth movement, but sometimes it seems a bit rougher as I get towards the end of a workout.
Loving this Concept2 so far.
I can see how clubs have rows of them.
If you are in the market, this is certainly worth a try and buy!

Tenía una remadora de agua y decidí comprar esta, ahora me doy cuenta que la anterior remadora me engañaba en cuanto al esfuerzo y distancias que estaba remando (me di cuenta porque supuestamente remaba los 2K en el mismo tiempo que los seleccionados olímpicos). La remadora concept2 se siente súper bien construida y se nota que le han pensado cada detalle y mejorado con el tiempo. Lo que me hizo decidir más es que venden todas las refacciones y estas comprando una remadora que va a durar más que tú; mi hija de 5 años me pregunto si algún día va a ser suya y le conteste que por supuesto

I have never rowed in my life, but during the winters in New England, I am often uninspired to go outside for a run, especially when the sidewalks are icy. I did a lot of surfing on the web to see what might be some options. I don’t have the room for a treadmill, a stationary bicycle did not appeal to me, and I do some bodyweight exercises already. The indoor rowing machine was something that continually caught my eye and the more I read about it, the more I was intrigued. Once I decided on the indoor rower, I did a lot of reading on different websites, compared many indoor rowers, and also talked to a couple of people with some experience with rowing. If I was willing to pay for it, the Concept2 Model D was the one I wanted.
It was certainly an investment, but having had it for a month, I have nothing but great things to say about it. I’m nowhere near the indoor rower that I hope to one day be, but I try to get a decent row in several times a week. For me, “decent” means trying to work on my form (I have watched many videos) and getting to the point where I am very tired. Thankfully, it feels like I can go a bit longer each week. With the proper form, I feel that my wind has certainly improved, my legs are very tired, and my arms seem to get a decent workout as well. The legs are definitely the body parts that get the best workout. I know I haven’t even come close to figuring out everything that the digital monitor can do, but after such a short period of time, I can say with certainty that this machine is perhaps my best overall purchase in many years. I need to be diligent, but it feels like something I can do for years to come and if I continue to concentrate on my form, I should stay healthy with it as well.
I must say that I enjoy the different workout options on the digital monitor and I’ll continue to figure it out more and more. I definitely like how the machine was extremely easy to put together (instructions were great and it took about 15 minutes to assemble) and it can also come apart in about 5 seconds so you can store the rower in a closet if needed. I’m careful with it, but it also feels very sturdy. Last but not least, keeping track of workouts and syncing it with my phone using Bluetooth is a great option so I don’t have to write things down all the time anymore.
And…for the time being, until I move it upstairs, the Concept2 Model D sits in front of a television so I never have an excuse to avoid even a quick workout while watching a show or movie. I could not recommend this indoor rower any more highly! It’s definitely a financial investment, but for me, it’s already been a very worthwhile one.
One final thing…I emailed Concept2 with a couple of simple (probably stupid) questions and they got back to me within a couple of hours on a Saturday. I always expect good customer service, but this was great. They were both helpful and extremely enthusiastic with their response. That just takes things over the top and if I could, I would have added a sixth star to the rating.

I rowed for a time in college, and I have to say, it was most “in shape” I have ever been in my life. To be fair, I was 19-22yrs old, so getting in shape was a lot easier to do and maintain back then. But I digress…. Since the pandemic put us all in lockdown, I have been doing my best to keep in shape with my at-home equipment, but without access to a full gym, this is an inherently limited endeavor. So, I decided to finally invest in a rowing machine. Did a lot of research and shopping around, spending a lot of time looking at the water-rowers since they are such nice looking pieces of equipment. However, the prospect of maintenance and having to fill/empty the water container didn’t seem particularly conducive to my 2nd floor workout room. After much deliberation, I decided to drop the extra coin on the concept 2 rower. This rower is the gold standard of all rowing machines. And honestly, nothing even compares. It is the rowing machine that we trained on in college and it’s the rowing machine that ALL competitive rowing programs train on. And when you get on it, you can see why. This machine is rock solid. Smooth seat glide. Authentic crew rowing reach and range of motion. Excellent pull and recoil of the chain. And the resistance levels have something for any level rower. And I guarantee, after 5 minutes on this machine, you’ll see why all of the *serious* rowers train on it. It’s definitely a full-body workout. You’ll be huffing with a racing heart after those first couple of workouts on here. It’s not the quietest rower on the market, but it’s by no means loud. Noise is more on par with a loud fan – which is basically what it is. Make sure that you watch the videos on correct form for the concept 2 – it’s key. Yes, you will spend a few more dollars for this rower, but I guarantee you that if you compare this to any other rower on the market, you’ll see why you’re paying more for this one. It’s an excellent investment in your health, and if you ever decide to sell it, you’ll see that they hold their value. You’ll rarely find one for re-sale for less than 800. Stop your research of the other rowers. If you want to be serious about getting in fantastic shape, and you want to do it on a machine that will out-live you, invest in a concept 2.

Brilliant product – have been using them in the gym, great to have one at home.

Acheté pendant l’année 2020 pour faire du sport à mon domicile. Le produit est absolument extraordinaire: la robustesse n’est plus a prouver, le design est plutôt joli et ne dénote pas dans un intérieur, la qualité de fabrication irréprochable. Attention le produit est particulièrement long et massif une fois assemblé, il faut effectivement de la place en longueur. Concernant l’utilisation, le mouvement est d’une fluidité absolue ce qui permet de doser parfaitement son effort sans risquer la moindre blessure. Il existe une roue de réglage manuelle sur 10 positions qui permet de régler la difficulté (cela permet de simuler un bateau qui glisse plus ou moins bien sur l’eau), le réglage conseillé est au milieu soit “5”. Ce qui différencie l’ergomètre de tous les autres appareils c’est le principe du choix de la difficulté. Ici il ne faut pas changer le réglage (à “5” de la roue mais plutôt de fournir un effort à une cadence régulière, sur une durée choisie et à une puissance choisie (les trois paramètres sont importants). C’est sur ce point que le moniteur PM5 fait la différence avec les autres marques et modèles. L’affichage est exhaustif et complet: la référence est le temps moyen au 500 mètres, mais cette moyenne s’affiche simultanément selon trois bases de temps (le temps instantané, le temps moyen au 500 mètres sur un intervalle choisit (par exemple 10 minutes) et le temps moyen au 500 mètres total sur l’intégralité de la séance. Ces trois informations permettent de doser avec une précision diabolique son effort et donc de voir d’une séance sur l’autre ses progrès ce qui est très encourageant. Il est possible de faire une séance en sélectionnant: une durée (ex: 1 heure), un nombre de calorie à bruler (ex: 700 Cal ou kcal), une distance totale à parcourir (12km). Ensuite il est possible de mixer les choix précédents pour faire des entrainements fractionnés et travailler sur l’intensité avec des passages de récupération… Franchement tous ce que vous voudrez paramétrer est possible. Maintenant depuis un mois et demi que je l’utilise au début séances de 15-20 minutes puis maintenant j’alterne des séances quasi quotidiennes soit de 45 minutes (500 Cal) soit de une heure (700 Cal). J’ai perdu 3 kgs (même si ce n’est absolument pas mon objectif mais c’est très agréable de se sentir bien), je me sens en pleine forme physique (plus d’essoufflement dans les escaliers, je bricole avec les bras en l’air pendant 12 heures ou après une journée de jardinage et je n’ai pas de courbature, je ne me fais plus de claquages musculaires avec des faux mouvements), l’impact sur la qualité du sommeil est aussi incroyable. Pour terminer et surtout pour protéger ma santé j’ai acheté une ceinture cardio polar H9 complètement compatible ce qui me permet de surveiller mon rythme cardiaque pendant l’effort et de ne pas dépasser 160 (dans mon cas). Au bout d’un mois et demi sur le même exercice j’ai diminué ma fréquence cardiaque durant l’effort de 15 battements par minutes (de 155 à 140) ce qui reflète à mon avis significativement le renforcement cardiaque et musculaire. Livré avec l’appareil il y a un support pour smartphone qui se monte sur l’écran PM5 (dans mon cas complètement inutile). Pendant l’effort je ne m’ennuie pas car je regarde des épisodes de série TVs ou des films. Les seuls points négatifs sont la longueur, le bruit pendant l’effort de la roue et de l’air qui est quand même important pour l’entourage, le siège est dur et pendant le premier mois fait clairement mal aux fessiers (après les muscles se forment et absolument plus aucune douleur), l’unique entretien nécessaire est de déposer quelques gouttes d’huile sur la chaîne tous les six mois, et une petite pipette n’est pas fournie avec… (vu le prix de l’appareil, bon…). Je suis ravi de mon achat et je pense que cet achat me servira pendant les 30 prochaines années vu la qualité du produit. Cerise sur le gâteau, les pièces sont disponibles très facilement.
Mise a jour du 27/07/2021: Après quasiment 1 an je suis toujours aussi satisfait, aucune blessure avec un usage modéré (environ 10 séances de 45 minutes par mois lorsqu’au début je faisais 20 séances par mois). L’appareil n’a pas pris le moindre jeu après 700 kms quand même. L’enthousiasme et la motivation des premiers mois ne retombe pas car l’impact sur la forme physique et le sommeil au quotidien s’en ressent… A acheter les yeux fermés!
