<h2>Welcome to Rowsandall.com</h2>
|
|
<p>Rowsandall.com is an online tool for indoor and On The Water (OTW) rowers.
|
|
It accepts workout data from a number of devices and applications. It
|
|
analyzes the data to provide valuable insights about your training,
|
|
and enables you to share data with many common online training tracking
|
|
systems.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Quick Start</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>On our <a href="/rowers/videos">Videos Page</a>, we already have a few
|
|
nice videos to get you started with your rowing data. Jump right in and
|
|
see how we do things at rowsandall.com!</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3>Indoor Rowing</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>rowsandall.com is designed to work with all models of the Concept2
|
|
Indoor rower. Using applications like ergstick, rowpro, ergdata or
|
|
painsled; a user can collect stroke by stroke data from the Concept2
|
|
Performance Monitor (Models PM3, PM4 or PM5). Workout data can be
|
|
exported from these applications, usually in CSV format, and uploaded
|
|
to rowsandall.com. Users can upload workouts either through the
|
|
online interface, for by emailing workouts to the site to
|
|
simplify the process for some applications.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3>On The Water Rowing</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>On the water rowers use either dedicated devices like Speedcoaches
|
|
or smartphone applications to collect data on their workouts.
|
|
All of these devices and applications provide a method to export
|
|
workout data in CSV, TCX or FIT format files. Workout data in
|
|
these formats can be uploaded to rowsandall.com. Users can upload
|
|
workouts either through the online interface, for by emailing
|
|
workouts to the site to simplify the process for some applications.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Basic Analysis</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>Many athletes use training approaches that use heart rate as a
|
|
key metric. In general, HR training is managed by defining
|
|
different training zones for different purposes. Rowsandall.com
|
|
uses heart rate zone definitions that are consistent with the
|
|
<a href="http://www.rathburn.net/rowing/training/indoor_rower_training_guide_v2_abridged.pdf">Concept2 Training Guide.</a></p>
|
|
|
|
<p>After a user defines their training zones, any training files that
|
|
are uploaded with HR data can be analyzed to provide time in
|
|
HR zone pie charts.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The tools also provide the ability to review a row, stroke by stroke
|
|
in plots versus time or distance. Basic plots in include HR,
|
|
Pace, Stroke rate, and power for the erg.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The tools also provide a text summary of the row.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Workout Export</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>rowsandall.com provides the ability to easily export workouts from
|
|
the erg or boat to the Concept2 online logbook. Export to other
|
|
sport tracking sites like Strava and SportTracks is also supported.
|
|
Users can also export workout data by email.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3>Import Compatibility</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>Rowsandall.com tries to be compatible with the most important tools
|
|
that rowers use to capture the data (both indoor and OTW). For a full
|

<h2>Advanced Analysis (Premium Features)</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Beyond the basics, rowsandall.com provides a rich tool set for
|
|
OTW rowing. You can use it to estimate stroke power and to correct
|
|
for the effects of wind and current. For indoor rowing, when used
|
|
with painsled, the tools enable graphical analsis of stroke metrics
|
|
including:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> Peak and average force</li>
|
|
<li> drive length</li>
|
|
<li> work per stroke</li>
|
|
<li> drive and recovery time</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
These can be analyzed versus time, distance, stroke rate or other
|
|
parameters to get a better understand of the strengths and weaknesses
|
|
of a rowers technique.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The online logbook provide the ability to record OTW sessions
|
|
manually, but none of the data from these sessions is captured.</p>
|
|
|
