Anyone use the rowing machine for general fitness/weight loss?
I could do with a couch to 5k type program for the rowing machine but have never managed to find anything. Anyone else know of a programme for beginners?
Maybe I could just follow c25k but on the rowing machine?

British rowing do some, but you have to given them an email address: getstarted.britishrowing.org/rowing-machine/
I've also used the Concept2 workouts of the day.
How many days a week are you planning on rowing?

I remember hearing about this years ago, but never following it.

Concept2 do some podcasts but I get the feeling they may be for people who are already into rowing, plus I prefer to listen to music rather than someone talking at me.

To be honest, couch to 5k is mainly done by time, so there doesn't seem to be any reason not to use it on a rowing machine.

We have a water rower but I just do 30 mins while watching something.
