It's rare to find an activity that works as many muscle groups through as wide a range of motion as rowing does. Knees, hips, arms & shoulders will each see 90
- 130 degrees of rotation in every stroke, which is more than you'll find in most other aerobic activities. This greater muscle involvement makes rowing a fantastic calorie burner, while also developing flexibility & strength. Rowing is impact-free, & on the Concept 2 Indoor Rower the intensity is completely user-controlled, meaning you can row as hard or as easily as you want, making it suitable for people of all ages & all walks of life. Thousands of customers each month have found rowing to be the best low-impact, full-body workout available.
The Indoor Rower is the worlds best selling rowing machine, one of the biggest reasons behind the Concept 2 Indoor Rower's success is the Performance Monitor. A highly sophisticated piece of equipment, this helps set the Indoor Rower apart from other rowing machines & fitness equipment as it means that you can accurately compare times & distances between different machines & users. Not only does this mean it's possible for you to reliably chart your progress, but it has led directly to the creation of an entire sport with races run all over the world including the British Indoor Rowing Championship in Birmingham every autumn, & the new online Concept 2 Challenge Series.
The Model D delivers proven performance & fitness benefits & can be found in homes, health clubs, schools & training rooms around the globe.
