I truly hope you’re not screwing up a rowing machine.[/quote]
I’m not strong enough. I can make it move across the floor without sliders though.[/quote]
Strength isn’t an issue when it comes to messing up an erg, it’s moreover a lot of piss poor technique. Moving it across the floor without sliders is a pretty decent indication of piss poor technique.[/quote]

How can poor technique damage the erg?

My rowing technique is not geared towards actual rowing. I use the machine mostly for HIIT row sprints. I also lock out my legs at the finish to get some VMO activation.

Because I’m rowing HIIT style the machine moves forward with the power phase unless I put weight plates on the front of it.
Question 1 is serious. I’m not claiming to know anything about rowing. Just curious as to what you mean. I’ve seen idiots at the gym using rowing machines in all sorts of ridiculous ways but have never seen a D2 damaged by them.
