Piston Showing 2 of 2 Rowing Machines... Piston resistance uses hydraulic cylinders attached to dual arms. Piston models are the smallest and least expensive options - they provide a great intro to rowing and its benefits without making a lot of demands on your space or budget. They're compact, quiet, and the only rowing machines that can work each arm independently. The big drawbacks: they're not as smooth as the other types, their frames are often too small for taller users, and their rowing simulation is least like the real thing.
Air / Magnetic Showing 3 of 3 Rowing Machines... Air/Magnetic rowers blend true-to-life Air rowing with silky-smooth Magnetic resistance. They generally start with noisy Air resistance at the lower work rate levels and, just when you can't stand the noise level, switch to silent Magnetic with increased effort. These combos are available at a wide range of prices and vary broadly in important features like console programs, resistance adjustment, and weight capacity.
The Hot NEW R99 replaces the discontinued R900, with more features and a smaller footprint. This brand new & improved model includes a FREE HR chest strap and a FREE mat for a limited time!
Magnetic Showing 4 of 4 Rowing Machines... Magnetic resistance - as found in many exercise bikes and elliptical trainers - uses powerful electromagnets to provide a variable system of resistance. Like piston machines, magnetic rowing machines are virtually silent; they're also longer and smoother, which allows fuller, more fluid extension. The variable resistance settings are ideal for those seeking specific workouts; many magnetic rowers offer versatile monitors that give you custom-fit workout options. Serious rowers in training, however, will prefer air or water resistance, both of which vary according to stroke rate.
Identical to the R30, with pre-set workout programs and major monitor upgrades like push-button resistance control and automatic resistance adjustment according to your heart rate.
Rowing's finest machine. Combines style, form, and peerless function including 95 resistance increments and heart rate monitoring. Control your console functions (including resistance) right on your handlebar!
