SKIERG, DECODED.
Not just pull and hope. Here’s how to make every stroke count on the SkiErg—whether you’re in a cardio burner or a hybrid grind.
🔧 DAMPER
Think of it like a gear, not resistance.
Setting it to 5–7 keeps the flywheel moving, so you can stay smooth, fast, and powerful.
Cranking it too high slows you down and burns out your arms early.
🕘 CADENCE
The magic formula:
1-second drive down, 2–3 seconds reset back.
Longer sets = longer recovery.
Find your rhythm, flow through the work, and let your full body do the pulling.
🎯 The goal: Smooth strokes. Better output. More control.
This is how you SkiErg with purpose—not just effort.
