Just a suggestion. For the fans and viewers there should be a virtual screen showing the race, try to imagine virtual horse racing. Something that can keep the average viewer entertained.
Just looked up a few things. The Uzbek guy with a weird technique was a finalist in 2019 world championship in M1x. Goretti is Olympian and 2019 world champion. Houin was world champion and gold medallist at the 2016 olympics in Rio. Colard got a Bronze medal in Rio. Erg is just their daily routine, it might not look impressive but they are on top of their game when on a boat anyway.
Separating out the specific parts and tools for each of the seven step assembly process steps was brilliant on the part of the manufacturer. For the price, I am impressed at how sturdy this ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxvObaTzoHoHQLL4lHbJQmExHqsrZQm-f7 unit is and it does go together easily. Well, I was puzzled at first at Step 5 and maybe the instructions should mention that rail #62 needs to be tilted upwards a little to get the rail to fit into the main part #44. I like it that the rower can be stored vertically in a really small amount of space, but be forewarned that this rower is top heavy and for safety you'll need at least two bungee cords to keep the unit upright, attaching them to something; in my case to a third garage door. I have had this unit only a short time, and I will post an update once I've had it for a year. As for working your legs, I have to admit that I'm mainly rowing for upper body strength and I use other forms of exercise for leg strength (like walking fast, biking, or using a trampoline. But if you pull as far forward as possible, then you can give preference to your legs for the first 4 feet or so of travel. I also admit to not taking the two electronic connectors apart at Step 7. I simply inserted the two batteries while the other parts remained connected. By the way, there is plenty of resistance here, even in the lowest resistance settings. Kudos to Sunny Health & Fitness !
But last year when worlds where in The US, 2/3 to 3/4 of the field where american. And for example in the heavyweight junior event, where girls who rowed 8min and slower. Also very very bad times
I guess it's fair... indoor rowing is not the hottest sport. Not many national rowing budgets will allow to fly people around and will rather save that for the WRC regattas where it counts.
Hope someone can answer my question! I used to row 2000m in the gym as training, but I never thought it is a championship, I am interested to know more about it, may I can apply for the next event, Would you do a favor by sharing some info with me, I am wondering about the rules, activities, and how to apply for this !

This is a great way to work on technique and gain strength without the danger of falling into the water. Also it can be hard to find time to take a boat out all the time.
No, that's way too high, you'd lose way too much energy too fast for little to no speed boost. Plus, they use drag factor to set ergs as it is much more consistent between different machines. Lightweight rowers usually use a setting around 130 DF, which is around 5 on a new erg (with time and dust, overall resistance diminishes).
this are lightweight men, they had probably some more races that day & and i wanna know your exact 2k time, because i'm not sure if your actually even close to 6 minutes

Amazing to actual commentate this. He's pulling and pulling and faster and longer.

what resistance setting do they race on?
what resistance do they race with? 1-10
Why did they bend their wrist, I thought we not supposed to
I'm pretty new to this; why do people do this instead of rowing on the water?
This is a great way to work on technique and gain strength without the danger of falling into the water. Also it can be hard to find time to take a boat out all the time.
As you can see by their technique, most of them cannot row a boat or have an erg-only technique that wouldn't work in a skiff.
@@hansjuergen28 Most of them are in national teams and several times medalist at international rowing events.
Il manque les vidéos des U19
Covid19 effect. Making people crazy and start watching people doing this. Next program - Grass growing competition - don't miss it.
there's a 10 hour video of a guy watching paint dry
What a bizarre championship
Extremely
Same, got lost. Seems like a event where men got to together and said “let’s workout together on this machine”
If you never used a machine like that,yeah it's bizarre. But it's a legit race
Without seeing the monitors, you can't tell what's going on or who's in front. Boring...
No idea how this came out in my suggestions but definitely interesting
dont know if the term world is right for a championship with like, 5 countries
What is a open lightweight?
Does anyone know the limit weight on lightweight category?
ignacio alvarez all athletes must be light
165lbs
72.5kg. In a boat it is a 72.5 average so you could be 75kg as long as another team mate is only 70
Paul Askham-Spencer sorry, my mistake
@@askhams thanks you guys. Take care
What drag setting do these athletes put it at? 10?
Looks like damper at 6 for most. I think these guys look for drag factor around 130.
no one would ever do 10
only crossfitters do 10
Nice vidoe. Good
What setting would they have it on? 8?
No, that's way too high, you'd lose way too much energy too fast for little to no speed boost. Plus, they use drag factor to set ergs as it is much more consistent between different machines.

Its the indoor version of rowing. Its called erging.
luis sal thumbnail?

37 strokes a minute?
Why is this in my recommendations?
What is the average wattage for the winner?
Probably around 380 watts
Yeah it would really benefit from a virtual screen. Still, I was amused watching it because I've been using a rowing machine a lot in the gym lately.
I haven't known about such a competition.
2k meters I do that around 6 so I don’t understand why there’s ppl doing it in 7??!
this are lightweight men, they had probably some more races that day & and i wanna know your exact 2k time, because i'm not sure if your actually even close to 6 minutes
Dan Cater 6:12 to be exact
Katta Schröder Im not your average joe... I’m 222 lbs mesmorph built and a pure athlete I know I can💯
Frenchman didn't look like he was extending his legs fully
It was his choice to extend only at 80%. Less meters but saves energy. Still rekted the others.
Easy to set up. Very quiet so it doesn’t bother other family members when it’s being used. Definite keeper!
What is more interesting is actually rowing... in a boat...
