Experience a Complete Cardio, Strength, and Calorie-Torching Workout at Home with the WaterRower
By Tricia White | Managing Editor
Did you realize that rowing is among the most effective workouts for enhancing aerobic health? Utilizing rowing machines not only improves your cardiovascular function but also significantly engages your muscles!
Unlike traditional cardio equipment like treadmills, stationary bikes, and stair climbers, a rowing machine provides a workout for both the upper and lower body, involving nearly all major muscle groups. When using an indoor rower, the rowing motion consists of approximately 65-75% leg engagement and 25-35% involvement from the upper body.
Additionally, indoor rowing offers the advantage of a full-body aerobic workout on a single machine, while minimizing impact compared to other aerobic exercises. When you run outside or on a treadmill, every step can cause orthopedic strain. However, this is not an issue with indoor rowing machines. Rowing effectively moves your joints through a complete range of motion with little impact and without bearing body weight, making it an optimal choice for those suffering from joint discomfort.
Craig Lewin, Vice President at Busy Body Fitness and Fitness HQ, mentions, “What makes the WaterRower an exceptional product is its ability to provide an incredible cardiovascular workout while engaging every muscle in your body! It also mimics the feeling and sound of being on the water. There’s no friction involved, ensuring the rower’s longevity. If Kevin Spacey can use it to unwind as POTUS in ‘House of Cards,’ then surely anyone can appreciate it!”
With its remarkable combination of aesthetics, functionality, craftsmanship, and durability, the WaterRower stands out. Its innovative WaterFlywheel technology is well-regarded for faithfully replicating the experience of rowing on a lake, employing a uniquely shaped paddle that captures moving water, minimizes slippage, and delivers an unparalleled rowing experience. Consequently, users experience a smooth motion without the jolting common to traditional mechanical rowers.
“The WaterRower harmonizes the serenity of flowing water, the warmth of natural wood, and a rhythmic motion,” Lewin adds. “It’s simply an outstanding workout.”
