Rowers
Rowers provide a full body workout with various types of resistance that provide options for users interested in burning fat, conditioning the heart strengthening muscles and training for specific sports. Resistance is generated by paddles, magnets or blades that mimic the natural dynamics experienced during outdoor rowing. Indoor and outdoor rowers provide console features that track time, stroke rate, distance and heart rate.
Magnetic Resistance
Magnetic rowers are rowing machines that use a magnetic braking system to create resistance. The magnets move closer to or farther from a metal flywheel to increase or decrease the resistance level. These rowers are popular because they offer a smooth, quiet rowing experience. Console readouts track time, stroke rate, distance and heart rate, when connected to an HR monitor.
Air Resistance
Air rowers use air resistance to simulate the feel of outdoor rowing. Air dampers create multiple levels of resistance, providing a customizable workout that can cater to different fitness levels and training goals. The harder the handle is pulled, the more resistance provided. Console readouts track time, stroke rate, distance and heart rate, when connected to an HR monitor.
