Let’s think about your summer. How often do you want to row each week? What time of day are you most likely to row? How much time do you want to commit to each session? Which Ergatta workouts motivate you the most?
Mapping out all of this goes a long way toward building a routine you’ll actually stick with. And we’re here to help you do just that. Read about the Ergatta features that’ll make consistent summer rowing a breeze.
MAKE A PLAN & SET A GOAL
With Ergatta’s goal setting feature, you select the number of days per week that you want to row. In turn, we track your progress and send weekly reminders to help you stay on target. You can adjust your goal at any time, too.
Let’s say you’re monitoring the surf swell of a lifetime and you've got to spend the week out on the water. That'd be a good time to lower your weekly goal. But let’s say that surf swell turns out to be a bust and suddenly you’re back indoors, craving some more Ergatta sessions. Crank up your weekly goal again and pretend like it never happened!
*We hear your feedback about pausing your Streak. While we don’t have this feature at the moment, the team is considering adding it in the future.
HEART YOUR FAVORITE WORKOUTS
Did you know you can “favorite” workouts? Just click the heart icon in the top right-hand corner of the workout card. That workout will then be added to Your Library, where you can quickly access it again and again.
You can also find all of your past workouts, your active Push Programs, and your recommended workouts in Your Library.
PLAN ROWS ON THE GO WITH THE ERGATTA MOBILE APP
With the Ergatta mobile app, you can explore workouts and favorite them to Your Library, even when you’re on the go. Just head into the workout library, use the filters to find workouts that match your preferences, then heart them for later.
Pay attention to your what your body needs. If you live in an area with seasonal climate swings, you’ll want to keep tabs on how you respond to the summer heat. For those days when you’re feeling less spry than others, check out this blog post for a breakdown of the best mobility exercises you can do before or after rowing: PRE- AND POST-ROWING STRETCHES.
You can find more tips like this in the Training Center section on your rower, too.

DRESS THE PART

What started with my husband thinking a rower would be a great low impact full body exercise turned into wanting one for myself. We wanted to compete and thought it would be a blast. My kids saw us doing it so we got one for them too so we can all compete.
All machinery is only as good as you using it, but I have loved the community and engagement that Ergatta brings to this rower. It’s always our choice to get on it, but Ergatta can keep you engaged when you are ready!
The one time of day I can relax: working out on my Ergatta
I hate most forms of physical activity. But I don't think of my time on the Ergatta Lite as a workout. It's a time for Zen meditation. I transport somewhere else hearing the water and moving forward. Truly grateful for this machine.
