Can you get fit from just rowing
>>
My brain burns too much calories to constantly monitor and correct my retarded rowing form so it really helps with creating a caloric deficit
>>
>>75748048
only if you do it in a big empty room with a barn door on the wall and a fake plant
>>
>>75748064
Funny, I even look like OPs picrel, except my balls pop out at the beginning of the stroke ans I do not have (((that kind of earlobes)))
>>
can you do all zones of cardio with rowing?
is it true that proper form is really hard?
is it true that is very taxing on the lower back even with proper technique?

I'm trying to decide between assault bike and rowing machine
>>
>>75748097
get both
>>
>>75748097
1) Pretty much
2) watch a couple of YouTube videos and it will improve massively, mine went from retarded meth head getting tased tier to mildly retarded tier just by watching videos.
3) Your back will feel worked, but much of the stroke is carried by the extension of your legs with your back angle more or less fixed so the back shouldn't be doing too much anyways. Do intervals in the beginning to give your back a rest
4) I'm more of.a squad automatic bike type of guy but you do you

I rowed for 5 years anon. It gave me insane lats and traps to the point people comment on it actively. I hooked up with a girl recently and she was grabbing my back and massaging it.

That's it though. My arms didn't get noticeably bigger nor did my legs. Also it takes time to get your technique down and if you're not doing it properly you're going to mess up not just your back but your joints too.

Don't row unless you have a coach. Otherwise you're just asking for it.

Those Orange Theory guys all have a really lean look with just a little more muscle than you'd expect, and I think they row fucking constantly. So if that's what you're looking for then maybe.
>>
>>75748048
Sure but I find indoor rowing the most dull exercise on the planet.
>>
>>75748122
>hooked up
Yucko
>>
Probably but your likely going to be bored to tears.
>>
Row row row your boat gently down the stream, merrily merrily merrily merrily life is but a dream!
>>
>>75748048
Only if you sing sea shanties with the boys while you do it
>>
>>75748619
>>75748648
depends on your pace. try and stay under 2min/500m and you wont feel bored

why do idiots buy a "rowing machine" when they could just get a boat?
