    I’m a Lucky Duck (74-Y.O.), I wanted to get back into rowing, so I purchased the X2 and linked it with my old Fenix 5XS and Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra with no issues. Then I rowed for the first time on August 18 and was impressed with the data and insights. So I made an appointment with my doctor and requested a chest X-Ray, Nuclear Stress Test, and Echocardiogram because the last time they were done was in 2004. I’m not on any medication.

    Prior to my physical checkup, I determined I wanted to ramp up to 10Km, so I showed the doctor the results of my 8/24/22 – 7,020m session (50:20, 97 bpm, 26 breath pm, heart stain 0.07) following the insight ‘go slower’ approach with no shortness of breath or pain. So the doctor listened to my lungs a second time and discovered a Heart Knock (Pericardial) issue that needs to be further investigated.

    I am convinced, that by showing the FF ECG charts and talking about how I was impressed with the product, and knowing that he is an amateur marathon runner and he might want to evaluate FF’s product and services.

    So, I just want to send out my appreciation for the product, because, without it, I would not have made the appointment and completed the X-Ray yesterday with no issues. Now to address the nuclear stress test and follow-up that will be required.

    • Good for you. Like wise, i am also impressed with the X2. I do a fair amount of rowing myself,but not as far as you. I have done 10k once, about 20 years ago on the concept 2 in about 39 mins – but its such a lo ng time to be sat on a seat. I try and row between 3.2K – 5K about 4-5 times a week, and was a competitive road runner until my knees gave out when i was about 40 (now 65). I am very impressed with the ECG capabilities of the X2 as they pick up the PVC’s i get every now and again – which i want to monitor to ensure the frequency doesn’t increase too much (currently about a dozen during a 90 min aerobic workout). Good luck with your investigations and tests.
