Is there a certain speed you maintain?

Is there a certain speed you maintain?

It varies really. My lowest RPM are in the low 60's, and if I'm feeling energetic will push it just past 100 RPM. My RPM probably averages in the 70s, whatever that is in MPH I'm not too sure.

Not recently but I'm gonna get back to it. Getting massive overuse issues doing heavy club and kettlebell stuff lately on top of gi jiu jitsu. It's like my hands never get a break.

It was for a greater purpose. From the dark shadows that took stepping over weights to get to, to open area looking at a timer. Put in a solid 4 min yesterday lol , am done for the month on it.

Bike way more better on knees than running or a rower.

It's really not any better on your knees than an ergometer (which isn't tough on the knees, rowers get back injuries or shoulder injuries but never knee injuries).

It requires less technique to use than an ergometer though and involves some of the pushing muscles rowing misses out on (however rowing does better develop the back).

That was more of personal experience, old man baseball knees. The rower is a longer leg stretch than bike so it would make stuff click and move every single rep. Rower def brought in more full body over the bike. Can see why people love to use it. You have to push with both legs and pull with both arms every rep, no taking breaks using just legs One of the big reasons swapped the Concept for a bike was the ease of access. You can jump on bike between sets , pump out time/distance and go right into next. Having to strap feet in/out of rower meant it was only getting used before or after everything else was done.
