Measure the work.
Watts show the power you produce as you train. They respond immediately when your output changes, giving you a clear target for the effort.
HOW ROW FORGE WORKS
Make every workout part of something.
You already know how to work hard. Row Forge helps you connect that effort to a purpose: discover where you are, train with targets that fit you, and understand the work you have done.

THE ROW FORGE DIFFERENCE
Your effort. Measured in watts.
Built on Dr. Kenneth Jay’s The Cardio Code, Row Forge connects your tested power to personal workout targets and purposeful training.
See progress on a clear scale.
A 10-watt increase is the same increase in output at any level. With pace, each faster second requires a different increase in power.
Start with your own baseline.
Your Viking Power Profile reveals power across short and longer efforts. Row Forge uses your performance to guide watt targets and what to train next.
Why lead with watts?
Heart rate shows your body’s response; time shows duration. Pace expresses the same output as watts on a different scale. We lead with watts to make the prescribed work and changes in output easier to understand.
How Concept2 explains watts01 · DISCOVER YOUR PERFORMANCE
Start with your starting point.
Your Viking Power Profile shows power across distances. Start with a 2K test and add shorter or longer tests to see which efforts are strong and which need attention.
The goal is a clearer picture of you, so training choices have something more useful behind them than habit.

02 · TRAIN WHAT NEEDS WORK
Step onto your erg with a plan.
Choose a structured workout or use a recommendation informed by your tests and recent sessions. Your own performance sets the targets and training zones.
Connect your Concept2 PM5 to the mobile app. Follow programmed intervals and live workout data, with the session's purpose already in mind.
03 · UNDERSTAND YOUR PROGRESS
Carry something forward from every session.
Your logbook records time, distance, pace, power, and heart rate. Review completed intervals and let Intelligence help explain the session, so you can return to the next workout with more context.
Use the mobile app for connected training and the web portal to review your workouts and progress. Your membership works across both.
THE PRODUCT BEHIND THE PROMISE
See the work. See the why.
From your power profile to a connected workout and the review afterward. This is Row Forge in action.
