<p>There are a couple of Concept 2 rowing machines at the gym I use. They have a monitor where you can choose to track your 2k time. Is this the erg score I read about on this forum, or is that for a different machine?</p>
<p>If this is the same machine, to what level should the air resistance flywheel be set in order to get a correct erg reading?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Yep, that is the erg score most referenced, the 2k. It is a little different for every machine, but generally speaking, you want a drag factor of 110-120 which is usually a 2-6 damper setting. You can check the drag factor on the monitor of then erg you are using by pressing “more options”, then “display drag factor”.</p>
<p>Thanks fishymom. I’ll give it a try.</p>
<p>OK, we are anxiously awaiting your 2K erg score to see where you are potentially recruitable :D. Never too old for college…again.</p>
