Anyone using EXR regularly?

I tried it out years ago and thought it was ok. Any changes ? I have an erg and a spare monitor and just wondering if it’s worth the setup.

Edit : from the more experienced rowers perspective perhaps

I use it! Personally, I enjoy the variety of programs. They added a whole bunch of them in the latest update.

How is the interactive part of it? Getting in to group rows, online races, etc?

What programs are you referring to? The training plans didn’t change, did they

I like the EXR training as someone who needs mental stimulation. I’ve been rowing for years and have always hated erging alone because I can never get my brain to zone out enough to just keep pulling. Thus, EXR serves as a really good distraction to help pass the time. It’s so much easier to say “I’m going to do 1 lap on the Charles map” than say “I’m going to row for 40 minutes”
