How to perform?

The Rowing Machine, also known as the Ergometer, is a versatile piece of equipment that mimics the motion of rowing a boat. This low-impact exercise engages multiple muscle groups, including the legs, back, shoulders, and arms. Rowing is a low-impact but high-intensity exercise that improves cardiovascular endurance and strength. The resistance can be adjusted to increase or decrease the difficulty of the exercise. As you pull the handle toward your body, you're working with a back-and-forth motion, engaging your back muscles to initiate the movement. The pull is also aided by the leg muscles, and the motion is completed as you pull the handle towards your chest, engaging the biceps and forearms. Rowing is an excellent exercise for individuals of all fitness levels because it is both low-impact and versatile. Whether you're warming up for your next workout or looking for a full-body workout, the Rowing Machine is an excellent choice for building endurance and strength.
