Lose Weight with an
Exercise Rowing Machine

The exercise rowing machine provides an excellent exercise for losing weight. It provides a total body workout. It is important to use the proper rowing technique. The rowing stroke should copy the smooth and continuous motion of rowing in the water.

A rowing machine provides an aerobic workout for both the upper and lower body by utilizing most leg, arm and back muscles. The machine should be placed on a level surface and in an area that has room for the full rowing motion.

Look for the following features:

• Sturdy construction.
• Firm, but comfortable seats. You can buy special softer seat cushions for some machines. Do not make your own seat cushions, as they might not be safe.
• Seats should move easily back and forth.
• Easy to adjust resistance levels. Low resistance levels are for aerobic workouts, if you want to build and tone muscles, just increase the resistance level.
• Optional are monitors for distance, calories burned and heart rate.

Remember to always consult with your doctor before beginning a new fitness program, especially, if you have been inactive and/or are over 40 years old.
