This meditative experience is particularly helpful with rowing technique improvement.

Just Row:For a truly self-directed and meditative experience, simply set a time or distance goal - or none at all - and just row. All workout data will be captured in your dashboard just like all other workouts.

Interval workouts (Meteor and Pulse) on the Ergatta are split into 3 categories:

• Endurance workouts: These workouts are structured around building your stamina with long intervals and fewer rest periods.
• HIIT workouts: HIIT workouts are structured to challenge you with rapid changes between periods of intensity and rest.
• Technique workouts: These workouts are designed to build your pace and power management skills.

Each Interval workout type has a specific focus:

• Split-focused workouts: these revolve around hitting and maintaining targets. Intensity targets are defined as personalized split ranges, based on your biometrics, fitness capacity, and calibration results.
• SPM-focused workouts: these are focused on hitting and maintaining stroke rate targets; essentially the rhythm or cadence with which you row.
• Hybrid workouts: a challenging combination that direct you to hit and maintain targets for both intensity and SPM at the same time.

There are hundreds of workouts available on the platform, with more added each week.
