That's pretty good because imo the highest resistance setting is pretty tough, just listen to your body and if something hurts try and do things to fix that, stretch (i think stretching my hamstrings helped back pain I was developing) and try to correct your form.
If you're not noticing problems and you feel good and have the time and it aligns with your fitness goals then definitely feel free to row for longer durations or go for a faster pace! But if you're feelin it and it's hard and you don't wanna do more then that's good, keep doing what you're doing and remember to eat extra protein if you're able to do so! You'll just keep gettin' stronger!
If you can get up to 6 sets of those 5 minutes a day you'll basically be rowin as much as me. More if it's every day cause I've been lazy 😔 but like don't hurt yourself ya know, I got this machine back in December
I don’t have any specific fitness goals, it seemed like “having a machine that tracks some basic stats” would at least trick my adhd brain into getting off the couch.
