Got no clue how to use a Concept2 SkiErg? Good, me neither! That's why I had my buddy and incredible athlete, Eric Hinman, give me the ultimate tutorial! Watch to find out how I used this machine for the first time, and why it was TERRIBLE!
These tips really helped me figure out my form and technique for maximum efficiency and I hope it helps you too! Maybe I'll buy one for WODprep HQ now...

I just watched a video from Concept 2 that says not to hinge that much and your hands should move from "hat to pockets". They claim you lose force by hinging that much and straightening out your arms. I typically do it like you show but I am thinking about trying Concept 2's way to see if it makes a difference.
Yeah definitely - try a couple things and see what works for you!
It is better to do it the way the guy from the other video you watched did it. You can watch professional skiiers double pole for refference
That's a great video,
The concept 2 Ski videos show different technics when it comes to arm movement,
I am a good and efficient rower, but I suck at Ski.
Using the Concept 2 videos technics, which basically tells you to begin the stroke with 90 arm bend, didn't work for me at all,
I was plodding and my arms got hammered after 3 minutes,
When I used the technic shown in the video I noticed the difference immediately.
It's also worth mentioning that part of using your core is related to activating your back well, so you won't lose the connection and have this half bend at the end. .
Glad it helped 🙌
Love the ski Erg and can’t wait to add one to our home gym in the new year
I have the rower and am hoping to add the skierg next.
Loved these tips!
I’d get an assault bike first up too.
Wow super helpful! Thanks! I was doing it wrong!!
Just received and assembled mine……using it for canoe paddling dry land training……I use a modified oblique style - alternating 20 per side - with a bit less hinging…….
Great Nordic Ski training technique, but maybe have a look at another technique for the SkiErg with Jane Erbacher that works better for those that don't need to actualy real world ski but want to use this machine efficiently.
I have a C2 rowing machine that I like a lot.
Low impact
Can combine it with other exercises
It’s easily moved and stored
It will challenge anyone at any fitness level.
I bought the lykan, pretty much the same!
Wha I like about the ski erg is that you can get a cardio workout with it even with a low body injury
That squirrel at 14:34
😂🙌
Great video! Love the vibe of it being outside I also saw the concept 2 just posted a video about the ski erg and the said to pull to your pockets and it’s not as effective to pull all the way down. What are your thoughts?
Sounds like a good cue. Probably similar to not leaning back too far when rowing!
2 ski ergs in my gym!
SkiErg! Already have a concept 2 rower and compu-trainer
What would be better for runners rower or ergski?
Excellent question at the end. I have eco bike!
Bro has the best view for training and an awesome homegym 😲🗿
What would damper setting be for 5 foot 3 inch woman? My gym says at a 7. Seems that would be for a tall man?
Even someone I know who is 6ft4 and over 100kg does not go above 6
Ski Erg, , after 36 years of racing triathlons, running, cycling and then all ultra racing beyond the IM distance, nothing will match the benefits personally like XC skiing in terms of aerobic capacity.. Again personal opinion and everyone is different, but using Ski Erg to supplement real Xc skiing is unmatched. Rower, bikes, are great no question but for pure aerobic conditioning at LT threshold levels and higher very quickly its ski Erg (with 100% correct form and correct hinge position). Done correctly, the entire body is fatigued from head to toe. Try a 30 minute to 1 hour time trial on each machine and then do the real comparison with the numbers.
The technique you show may suit your goals, but has very little with the double polling ski technique the machine is made to simulate.
Love/hate relationship with this dang machine lol
Using it to “accumulate calories”? Which part is edible?
Probably the assault bike as I already have a rower
Hello wodprep, great vídeo as usual! Please, correct the video, changing from “triceps extension” to” triceps contraction”. When the arm (elbow) extends, the muscle Triceps, contracts. Sorry to make this kind of observation here. Best whishes
Canyou buy an assault bike for 1,000 dollars?
Kkkkk
I’d put that money on an Assault Runner. I have everything else
Seems like a lot of machine for the work.
Stop !! You're just hurting your back.
Why you say that, if they are experts! what is your backgroud? to say that? so what is the poing to have profesional to explain it, and they u say that? please give more info...
