I was thinking about getting a C2 rower with a work benefit that covers health and wellness equipment. Seeing the waitlist on another thread here, I started poking around on the Concept2 website. The ski erg caught my eye, and wanted to see if anyone had much experience with it.
I'm a big downhill skiier, have never really branched out into nordic, but it looks like this could be a good general purpose conditioning machine that seems to work alternate muscle groups to the rower. I had ACL surgery last year, and although I'm 9 months post op and moving around normally now, I'm still pretty aware of reducing impact on my knee, for context.
It seems like if I could make space and find the money, it would be a pretty great full-body workout to start on the ski erg then switch to rowing or vice versa?
