For the record, I was taught that the "resistance" on the erg isn't exactly resistance. Think of it more of the size of the boat you'd be in, so 1 would be like a single scull, 10 would be like rowing a canoe. I usually kept mine around 4 or 5.

I have done between 7 and 8 so far this week. I will drop it tomorrow and them load it back to 10 on Friday and see if I can tell a difference.
