Stamina X Water Rower | Build Endurance and Full-Body Strength

by

The Stamina X Water Rower is a compact rowing machine that uses water resistance to simulate the feel of actual rowing. Unlike other full-sized water rowers, it places the water wheel below the rower instead of on end to save space.

Dynamic water resistance on the Stamina X Water Rower simulates the feeling of real-world rowing. The smooth motion of this type of resistance provides a great full-body workout. Suppose you want to increase the resistance; row harder. Ease off, and the resistance will ease with you. You can add or remove water from the tank to change the baseline resistance.

For tracking your progress, the Stamina X Water Rower features a multi-function fitness monitor that tracks calories burned, time, stroke count, and distance during your workout. Use the scan mode to cycle through each of these metrics. In addition, the included wireless HR chest strap transmitter allows you to monitor your pulse.

Rowing is a practical, low-impact, total-body workout that builds strength and endurance, burns calories fast, provides effective cardiovascular exercise, helps reduce stress, and is relatively easy to do. So. if you have minimal space to devote to a traditional long rowing machine, check out this cool new Stamina X Water Rower.

WaterRower Natural Rowing Machine | Smooth, Natural, and Quiet

by

The WaterRower Natural Rowing Machine with S4 Monitor is one of the most aesthetically pleasing rowers on the market. It is also one of the best-performing ones! It is part of the “Natural” series of WaterRowers, due to its solid Ash Wood and stained Honey Oak construction material.

It uses a “water flywheel” or paddles suspended in a water tank to provide the rower’s resistance. Therefore, this is called ‘variable’ resistance because there are no “adjustments” to feel more resistance, row faster, and feel less resistance, row slower.

In addition to determining resistance based on your rowing intensity, you can further adjust the rowing experience by adding or subtracting water from the water tank. The more water you add, the “heavier” the rowing will feel (like rowing a boat with passengers). The less water you have, the “lighter” the rowing will feel (like rowing by yourself).

The WaterRower Natural Rowing Machine provides one of the best resistance any water rowing machine offers. Therefore, it is difficult to find any complaints about WaterRower resistance. It is smooth, durable, and relatively quiet. Plus, it closely mimics the resistance felt while rowing on the water!
