SHOCK CORD RESISTANCE & ROPE TENSION

The Stroke2max Ergometer uses a unique Shock Cord & Rope System which allow you to perfectly adjust the ergometer resistance and tensions to simulate your unique paddling style.

Every paddler is unique so this means each individual will need to set the resistance and tensions make the ergometer feel just perfect for you. Keeping that in mind, the Stroke2max Kayak Ergometer was never developed to replace paddling on the water but rather to allow the athlete to train all year round when the weather does not allow it, but also work and develop keys aspect of your paddling that is always possible.

Once you have adjusted the Shock Cord length to have the best possible paddling simulation you can now start playing around with different resistance and rope tensions.

Step one will be to plan your training session in advance so that you are able to set the right resistance and rope tensions for your intervals or training session.

Decide what your focus will be fore that specific training session, will you be working on improving your Endurance, Aerobic Power, Speed Endurance or increasing your Vo2-Max.

Now the important thing to remember is that a very slight increase in resistance & tension, 1 cm at a time, makes a big difference. If you are able to push your-self slightly more each time you will definitely improve.

The second most important thing to do is to concentrate on keeping the perfect paddling style although the session. If you are able to check your paddling technique in a mirror while paddling you will be able to see when your technique starts failing and immediately correct it. By doing this the Stroke2max Kayak Ergometer delivers a much more concentrated form of training that you will definitely feel the next day.

Now you can train anytime, in any weather, any sessions!

STROKE2MAX FAN RESISTANCE

The Stroke2max Ergometer has a variable Fan Resistance Regulator and by moving the regulator adjustment handle you can set the Fan Resistance.

The measurement on the outside of the fan indicates the suggested fan resistance to simulate the drag/resistance of according to the paddlers weight.

It is very important to remember that when you stop paddling and change the Fan Resistance and then start paddling again you will not immediately feel any difference but if you keep paddling at a constance effort and someone change the Fan Resistance for you you will immediately feel the difference in Fan Resistance.

Now you can train anytime, in any weather, any sessions!

ADJUSTING YOUR FOOTREST

Adjusting your Stroke2max Ergometer footrest is very easy, by just lifting the adjustment handle, moving the footrest with both hands on each side and then locking in place once you reach the desired position.

Your footrest position is very important, because having the footrest to close you lose the ability to have the correct leg drive into the footrest, that helps you rotate your hips on the seat and increase your upper body rotation.

When your footrest is to far you put much more strain on your core muscles and you lose the power generated into your stroke from the correct leg drive.

The correct leg drive is crucial to a proper paddling technique.

Now you can train anytime, in any weather, any sessions!

ADJUSTING YOUR BALANCE SEAT

When seeing up your Stroke2max Ergometer and fixing your unique balance seat, you are able to adjust the stability of the ergo seat.

When training with the Stroke2max Ergometer you can add another dimension to your training that is not always possible when training on indoor simulators.

The adjustable balance seat allows you to set the stability and this way simulate the natural balance required when paddling in your kayak. The balance seat helps you to activate your core and also train that vital stabilising muscles needed when paddling. This is just an added dimension on the Stroke2max Kayak Ergometer.

You can easily adjust the balance seat by either loosening the top two lock nuts below the seat to make it more unstable or to tighten the two lock nuts to make it more stable.

Now you can train anytime, in any weather, any sessions!
