Concept2 · Indoor rowing, ski and bike
Bring your Concept2 training into ChatGPT or Claude.
Your PM5 and ErgData already record every metre, split and stroke on the RowErg, SkiErg and BikeErg. Build your Athmex profile so ChatGPT or Claude also knows what that work is for: your goal, event, PBs, thresholds, weekly hours and constraints.
Can ChatGPT or Claude use Concept2 training?
Yes. Concept2 training can be part of a ChatGPT or Claude coaching setup. Workouts in the Online Logbook can be sent on to other training platforms, and you can always share results from ErgData in the conversation.
Concept2 records the work precisely. Athmex supplies the reason for it. Start your Athmex profile, connect it to ChatGPT or Claude, and we'll help you bring your Concept2 training into the same coaching setup. Athmex doesn't import Concept2 data itself.
ErgData, the PM5 and the Online Logbook
Every Concept2 machine has a PM5 monitor. ErgData connects to it, shows your workout live and saves the result to the Concept2 Online Logbook: metres, time, pace per 500 m (per 1000 m on the BikeErg), watts, stroke rate or cadence, and heart rate where a strap is paired. Interval workouts keep every rep, and your workout history builds season by season.
The Logbook adds rankings and challenges, which many athletes use as motivation and a benchmark.
Rowing, SkiErg and BikeErg in a training week
The three machines train different things, and the right session depends on what you're preparing for.
RowErg
A full-body aerobic engine. For rowers, 2K and 5K times are the benchmarks. For runners and triathletes, steady rowing adds aerobic work without impact, which helps during injury or high-mileage blocks.
SkiErg
Upper-body and core endurance. Useful for Nordic skiers, hybrid racers and swimmers who want pulling strength, and a way to keep training when legs need a rest.
BikeErg
A fan bike with measured watts. Riders can use it for structured intervals, and runners use it for low-impact volume. Keep your cycling FTP in Athmex so the assistant can relate BikeErg watts to your road numbers.
Cross-training for runners, cyclists and triathletes
Concept2 sessions often sit alongside a main sport. The question is how much they add to the week: a hard 30-minute row is real load, even though it isn't running.
ChatGPT or Claude can balance that when it knows the main goal, the race date, the days you train and any injury the erg is helping you work around. Athmex keeps those details ready, and the triathlon hub explains how assistants handle multi-sport load.
What ChatGPT or Claude can do with Concept2
- Plan a 2K test build
- Structure the weeks before a 2K around your current splits and available sessions.
- Low-impact volume during injury
- Replace runs with rowing or BikeErg work that keeps fitness without aggravating the injury.
- Pitch interval pace
- Set /500m targets for intervals from recent pieces, not guesses.
- Count the erg in the week
- Balance hard erg sessions with running or riding so recovery isn't squeezed.
Concept2 shows what happened. Athmex explains what you're training for.
Your AI coach does the reasoning. It reasons better when it knows the athlete, and that part stays in your Athmex profile for every conversation.

Questions Concept2 athletes ask about ChatGPT and Claude
Can ChatGPT use Concept2 Logbook workouts?
You can share workouts from ErgData or the Logbook, and the Logbook can send them to other training platforms with routes to assistants. Athmex adds your goals and constraints.
Can Claude plan Concept2 RowErg intervals?
Yes. Share your recent pieces and Claude can pitch intervals at the right pace. With your goal and weekly hours in Athmex, it can place them sensibly in the week.
How should a runner count Concept2 sessions?
As real training load. An assistant that knows your race and running plan can fit erg work in without doubling up on hard days.
