Indoor Rower - The Main Benefits
There are tons of benefits from investing in a rowing machine:
Rowing Machines delivers Full Body Workouts
For total body workouts, an air rower is the way to go. Replicate rowing action works all muscle groups and targets your core, quadriceps, glutes, calves, pecs, arms and obliques.
Rowing Machine V Treadmill
In a gym environment, often a Treadmill or other trainer is selected over a Rowing Machine, however a Rower actually delivers a full body workout as opposed to just the lower muscles when you run on the treadmill. In that sense, a rowing machine a much more efficient workout in terms of time and end results.
Improves Heart & Lung Health
The cardiovascular benefits of a rowing machine workout are huge. Not only do you burn fat with a brisk rowing session, you also strength your heart muscles and lung function.
Indoor Rowing is a Low Impact Exercise
Although the rowing action is vigorous and you can achieve powerful workouts, air rowing with an indoor rowing machine is a low impact exercise. Rowing machines do not tax your joints, involve jumping or stressful muscle movements meaning you can build quality rowing workouts into your training sessions without the risk of injury. A indoor rower is also a suitable workout option for blind people or those with weaker eyesight due to the simplicity of movements and the rower's easy operation.
A Rowing Machine is simple to Assemble, Store and Transport
Unlike other gym equipment, a modern air rowing machine does not take up alot of space meaning you can carry out indoor rowing in any room of the house without getting in anyones way. With transport wheels, space saving profile and foldable design (some products only), gone are the days of lugging around a clunky piece of kit from room to room to perform row workouts as part of your fitness routine. Our Rowing machines are also designed with silent functionality meaning you won't disturb neighbours or other family members during an intense rowing session.
Rowing Machines can be Multi Purpose
Not many of us think to use a Rowing Machine to support other workout types but they can be an excellent tool for performing powerful toning and sculpting exercises when you are not in Rowing mode and want to switch it up. Here are 3 other killer exercises you can do with your rowing machine.
Lateral Lunges
Stand at the back of the rowing machine and with one foot on the floor, extend the opposite leg out to the side and place it on the rowing machine seat. Reach as far as you can with your foot on the rower seat while keeping your other foot on the floor then sit back as low as you can go.
Side Jump & Burpee
Stand to the right of the rower and laterally jump over the base of the rowing machine and drop into a burpee. Repeat the same process on the left side
Elevated Dips/Push Ups
Use the base of the rowing machine to support your body. So a round of 10 elevated dips and a round 10 elevated push ups.
Rowing can relieve Stress
The silent and repetitive operation of a rowing machine can be meditative, increasing the mind-body connection and relieving stress and tension.
Immersive Rowing Experience
One of the great benefits of a indoor rower with connected workout access is the experience. With all sensory enhancements to make your experience completely immersive, Echelon Row for example, allows you to fully engage with your surroundings, interact with a supportive community and most importantly brings fun into your workouts.
