Long recognized as delivering one of the toughest workouts around, Nordic skiing develops both strength and endurance and exercises the legs as well as the arms and core. The SkiErg can be used for both double pole and classic alternating arm technique.
CONCEPT 2 SKIERG
The most surprising one of all what is the SkiErg. I guess I under estimated the fitness level of the ski athletes as my demo completely in unequivocally gave me the work out like I've never had before. The SkiErg workout for both upper and lower body regions was quite impressive. High strength drive cords allow for consistent and reliable tension at all times without the chain issues. Concept 2 reported the cords are stronger than steel and because of the reduced weight allowing for smooth and highly responsive movement. There are 10 levels of varying degrees of intensities in the Spiral Damper which will keep you consistently increasing your strength and fitness levels. The Ergonomic Strapless Handles are surprisingly quite comfortable, secure and this is due to the superior anatomical design for thousands and thousands of repetitions without any stress and perspiration on the hands. There are Multiple levels of very arm movements created by lateral or single movement during your workout. SkiErg comes with the advanced PM5 monitor which gives the most up-to-date cross county training data that comes with Bluetooth and Ant+ compatibility for all your heart rate devices and fitness Apps. Concept 2 products just work as the SkiErg has minimal setup for long lasting durability of the quality materials for both home and/or commercial use that will last years to come. Your cost $770 and another $180 with the floor attachment. You can either mount to the wall (equipment included) or purchase the Floor Stand which that is my preference. Even with that morning CrossFit workout, the different muscles that were used in the SkiErg was nothing I've experienced before, and I got to realize how fit the Cross-Country Ski professional are. The Concept 2 SkiErg is a superior overall upper and lower body fitness workout that is a durable, reasonably priced and guarantees lasting performance
