My recommendation for indoor rower rowing shorts for erging on the Concept2
-
I've put a lot of meters onto my PM5-updated twenty-year-old Model C Concept2 indoor rowing machine. While you can, and should, row in whatever shorts you have on—even pantsless if you own your own erg—there are some better solutions.

Getting back on the sliding saddle for the Concept2 Fall Team Challenge

I am working towards sixty-minutes of slow rowing every day for the rest of my life
-
I am finally doing it. After I burnt out my knees by going from zero to forty-five minutes of spin class in a day and then every day, I allowed myself to recover and now I am slowly building myself back up to committing sixty-minutes every evening to Maffetone rowing on my Concept2 indoor rower.

Motion is Lotion; Moving is Lubing

There are those who believe that a life of athletics ruin knees and elbows and there are others who believe that keeping active through functional fitness is the path towards a lifetime of easy mobility: motion is lotion. I'll gladly add, cheekily, moving is lubing.

Slow steady extended exercise is actually a type of breathing therapy
-
I have always been a terrible breather. I am a breath holder. I blame growing up in Hawaii and spending all my extra time freediving. That said, I have been thinking about oxygenation since the age of Coronavirus and since I started using a home ventilator, called a CPAP, and I think slow, steady, aerobic, exercise is another form of therapeutic breathing.
