A lady I work with did competitive rowing in college. She has an erg (concept2). She told me that I was doing it all wrong. That I should go with a resistance of 4 and do about 20 strokes per minute. She was completely correct. You can get a very good workout doing that. Essentially you are doing less reps, but you are more explosive in your rep, with a longer relaxation phase.
