What muscles does a rowing machine work?
Rowing engages over 85% of your muscles — targeting your legs, glutes, core, back, shoulders and arms in one low-impact motion. It combines cardio with strength, making it one of the most efficient home workouts available.
Are rowing machines suitable for beginners or older adults?
Yes — rowing is gentle on joints and easily scaled to any fitness level. Look for magnetic or water resistance models for smoother starts, or consult a physio if you're rehabbing. Many are NDIS-approved too.
How much space do I need for a rowing machine at home?
Many of our machines are foldable or compact, making them perfect for small apartments, spare rooms or garage gyms. Check each product’s footprint and folded dimensions for best fit.
What’s the difference between magnetic, air, and water rowers?
Magnetic: Quiet, adjustable, great for beginners or shared homes.
Air: Resistance increases with effort — ideal for HIIT or CrossFit-style workouts.
Water: Most natural feel, simulates real rowing — great for athletes or smooth, meditative sessions.
Can I use a rowing machine for injury recovery or physical therapy?
Yes — rowing is low-impact and often recommended for rehab, especially after knee or hip injuries. Our range includes physiotherapist-recommended models ideal for controlled, safe recovery training.
