Rowers

1. What is a rower?

A rower is a fitness machine that simulates rowing. It delivers a full-body workout, engaging nearly all major muscle groups. Rowing builds endurance, strength, and cardiovascular fitness with smooth, joint-friendly motion for any fitness level.

2. What are the benefits of a rower?

Rowers combine cardio and strength, making them excellent for calorie burn. They target the back, shoulders, legs, and core, while improving posture and coordination. They’re low impact and gentle on joints.

3. What types of rowers are there?

Rowers differ by resistance system:
• Air: Resistance rises with pull intensity—ideal for high-performance training.
• Magnetic: Smooth and quiet, great for home use.
• Water: Uses a tank to mimic real rowing—natural stroke feel.
• Hydraulic: Compact and space-saving, though less natural in movement.

4. What should you consider when buying a rower?

Focus on resistance type, build quality, stability, and weight capacity. Comfort matters too: a supportive seat, non-slip footrests, and the right size for your space. Built-in programs and foldable designs are also great for home use.

5. Are rowers good for beginners?

Yes. Rowers offer adjustable resistance and low-impact motion, making them safe and accessible to all fitness levels. Learning proper form ensures effective training and injury prevention.

6. What makes a rowing machine so effective?

A rowing machine engages 80–90% of muscles in one workout. It combines strength and endurance training and efficiently burns calories.

7. Which resistance systems are available on rowing machines?

We offer two types: the Carbonrow uses air resistance, while the MagnaRow combines air and magnetic resistance. The hybrid system is perfect for strength-endurance training.
