Description

Workout with your Concept 2, WaterRower or FluidRower rowing machine. Be guided by world-class athletes and instructors. Follow structured training programs to improve yourself and your times or just choose your own workout. asensei customizes challenges to meet your capability and pushes you to your potential.

asensei guides and monitors your practice on and off your rowing machine. More than a workout, this is a series of lessons - build strength and fitness alongside skill and technique as you are guided, monitored and corrected through these programs by your very own personal coach, asensei.

asensei talks to the monitor on your rowing machine, reads force curves, analyzes your performance and uses that to inform your practice. Are you losing power at higher stroke rates? Are you losing length when you’re tired? Do you find it hard to hold lower stroke rates consistently? Are you rushing the recovery? Compensating for poor leg drive with over-use of your arms?

asensei knows. And she’ll be sure to let you know.

Practice. Perfected.

FEATURES:

PROGRAMS, PERSONALIZED: there's a program for you whether it's a 2km, 6km or 30min challenge you are looking for. Designed to challenge, improve and adapted for you.

COACHING, UNPARALLELED: Say hello to the world´s best coaches. Olympic Gold Medalist Eric Murray, British Rowing, Johan Quie, Shane Farmer of Dark Horse Rowing. They set the work; asensei makes it work for you. Watching, responding, adjusting, encouraging - just as they would.

ANALYSIS, DELIVERED: Row - record - watch - rewind - remember. The old ways are over. asensei watches you move, as you move, responds in the moment and evaluates over time.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:

“I was fortunate enough to have great coaches from the very beginning of my rowing career. This meant I wasn’t taking thousands of bad rowing strokes, ingraining bad habits. The potential for asensei to provide quality feedback before bad habits are formed is really exciting", Helen Glover, 2x Olympic Gold Medallist and World #1 Rower.

"Just when you thought (sports) technology couldn't get any cooler, along comes asensei", CBS Television

"... the next frontier in the fitness tech revolution ... a wildly ambitious goal ... able to guide you through everything from form and recovery to metrics and goals while improving your individual results ... future of personal training", Men's Health

Here's what users had to say:

"someone keeping an eye on you the whole time is really cool because ... it keeps you honest, keeps you on track in a way that I don't think a coach normally can unless you are doing a one on one session, so it was the benefit of a one on one, with the class dynamic, which I really like!"

"It's a cool product. I've never ever seen anything like that. In 5 minutes I learned how to row, I thought I was doing it right, but I wasn't"

"(asensei) said don't worry there's a bunch of exercises I'm going to give to you afterwards that are going to help you on that. ... that's amazing. ... this is not just about now, it's like building a relationship."

The Best

I’ve tried a few online rowing classes and apps and this is The Best. If you have a PM5 monitor it connects your rowing performance to the workout in realtime. This means you are set realistic targets for the set, with feedback on how you are doing.

With world class rowers providing the classes it’s a serious rowing workout. I’ve learnt a lot to improve my technique, which has fed through to my ability and fitness.

The unique advantage that Asensei has over all the others I tried though…is that it doesn’t let you pause in the workout, so you can get off the machine and wander around for a minute or two to catch your breath or whatever. I repeat, it doesn’t let you do this. You can pause it, but it’ll send you back to the beginning again. This one feature is sooo motivating! Halfway through you fancy a rest, but you really don’t want to have to give up what you’ve already done, so you push on to the end. It’s made such a difference to my stamina. And it’s amazing to reach the end knowing you gave it your all. Grown up stuff!

I returned to Asensei…

Previously used Asensei for about 18 months and decided to try other apps for a change and variety. After a year away… I m back to Asensei. Personally, I like the video accompaniment, watching the form and pace… the interaction with the app (telling you to slow down or speed up) gives me the confidence I am doing a quality workout. The coaches are excellent and couldn’t be more qualified. I enjoy the variety and the fact I just have to get myself to the rower… connect and the sessions are done for me. I am not a rower by background - far from it - but I wish I had discovered this all over body workout earlier. Such good exercise and the technology on Asensei makes it easy for non-rowers like me to get the most out of the exercise. I’m even looking forward to the apparel when it is released… I think this app is turning me into a geek! Whatever works, works right!

Best workout app for the erg

If you want to learn to row well, this is the app for you. If you want to improve fitness, this app nails it! Improve times? Yep, that too. This is the best app for using an indoor erg. It connects flawlessly to the PM5 (Concept2) and provides a vast amount of data for those data hoarders out there. Even better if you connect a heart rate monitor and link to your (free) Concept2 log. Yes, this app may seem expensive, but it provides value. You couldn’t get this kind of coaching in a gym for this price. The AI is extremely good too.

Oh, and as a bonus all members can join an active Facebook community where members share achievements, get advice (Eric Murray is there too) and support each other. Take up the paddle. You’ll only regret not getting it earlier!
