When I was talking about rowing machines recently, one aspect came up that I hadn’t described before: What do I do with the rowing machine when I’m not rowing?

Admittedly, I haven’t looked at this aspect in detail because it’s not a pain point for me personally, but I understand the requirement – not everyone has enough space or is looking for a piece of fitness equipment that is easy and ideal to stow away when they’re not working out. This is also the case most of the time.

Rowing Machine review

It’s been a long time since I’ve written a blog and now that I’ve ordered a Waterrower rowing machine, it’s time to start again.

I want to document my experiences with the rowing machine, how I train with it and what effect it will have. True to the lyrics “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger” by Daft Punk, it should be an incentive to get the couch potato body in shape. We can’t wait to see to what extent this goal is achieved 🙂
