Rowers

A rowing machine simulates the movement of rowing and enables an effective full-body workout.

It simultaneously activates your legs, back, arms, and core. The fluid motion is particularly gentle on the joints and improves both strength and endurance.

A rowing machine combines strength and endurance training in one exercise and ensures high calorie consumption.

• Full-body workout with multiple muscle groups
• Improvement of posture
• Increase in cardiovascular fitness
• Effective fat burning

Rowing machines differ primarily in their resistance system:

• Air resistance: dynamic and ideal for intensive training
• Magnetic resistance: quiet and smooth
• Water resistance: realistic rowing feel

For home use, air and magnetic rowing machines are particularly suitable as they are low-maintenance, durable, and versatile.

Combined systems like the ATLETICA MagnaRow combine smooth resistance with high intensity.

Air resistance models like the ATLETICA AirRow are especially suited for performance-oriented training.

When buying a rowing machine, the following factors are decisive:

• Resistance system: determines training feel and intensity
• Stability & build quality: for safety and longevity
• Maximum user weight: important for weight capacity
• Ergonomics: seat comfort and footrests

A smooth motion and high-quality components increase training efficiency.

Yes, rowing machines are ideal for beginners since the training intensity can be adjusted individually.

You start with moderate load and focus on the correct technique. Machines with smooth resistance make the start easier.

When training on a rowing machine, you burn about 400 to 800 calories per hour, depending on intensity and body weight.

By activating large muscle groups, rowing is among the most effective forms of training for fat burning.

A rowing machine enables highly efficient full-body training.

• Legs: thighs and glutes
• Back: lower and upper back
• Upper body: shoulders and arms
• Core: abdominal and core muscles

A rowing machine is particularly effective for full-body training, as more muscle groups are activated simultaneously.

Treadmills and crosstrainers focus more on the legs, while the rowing machine enables higher calorie consumption.

For optimal results, we recommend training 3 to 5 sessions per week.

Just 20 to 30 minutes per workout is enough to significantly improve endurance, strength, and fat burning.

A rowing machine is particularly joint-friendly since there is no impact stress.

The smooth movement reduces the load on knees and joints and is ideal for home workouts.

High-quality models are also quiet, stable, and space-saving, making them perfect for apartments.
