Concept 2 RowErg Maintenance

 A more specific post on the Concept 2, this time about maintenance and care. it's for me, a place where I can keep the links and info so I don't have to go searching for it when I need it. Yep I'm sure most of the links will probably lead one back to the main concept 2 website, though I will look for some good youtube videos as well.


The Concept 2 is a piece of exercise equipment reasonably priced for the home user and the go to rower for Gyms etc. Rowing clubs have them for indoor training, they are the standard and extremely well built for all users. I'm a Mechanic, we love robust machinery that doesn't require a lot of maintenance and constant repairs, I love the Concept 2 Model RowErg.

More to come...

Polar H9 Heart Rate Monitor Review

 I thought it time to invest in a decent chest strap heart rate monitor, my Ticwatch Pro 3 of course tracks heart rate beats per minute, but it doesn't connect to my workout equipment. The Concept 2 Model D Rower can accept heart rate monitors and so can my Lifespan APEX Treadmill, luckily the Polar 9 Chest strap will connect to both machines or their apps. The PM5 on the Concept 2 Rower now shows a heart symbol signifying when the chest strap is connected and also adds the heart rate to the log book entries, wonderful, just wonderful. I'll be interested to see how the H9 goes while wearing on an outside walk as I mainly workout indoors on the treadmill and Rowerg.

The thing that really piqued this geeks interest was that they connect to an app, the app shows some great information from your walking and running exercises.

Lifespan Apex Treadmill Maintenance

 How to maintain your Apex Treadmill We usually have two choices in life, with cars we can learn to change our own tyre with the spare if we get a puncture or call the RACV (roadside assistance of your choosing), I always prefer to do what I can when it comes to maintenance and minor repairs at the very least. This treadmill like many does need the odd amount of adjustment and lubrication to keep it running smoothly and efficiently, the main part that needs occasional love is the running/walk belt. Alignment of the belt is important, keeping it as centred as possible is key, if it goes too far to one side or the other you can hear it scraping which will most likely do damage to the belt if left unattended. The adjustment for keeping the belt centred is with two bolts at the back of the deck, the bolts on the Apex are allen key heads. These bolts also what is used to keep tension on the belt so it doesn't slip or if too tight doesn't put undue load on the treadmill electric moto...
