A rowing machine is a piece of fitness equipment designed to simulate the action of rowing a boat. It consists of a sliding seat, footrests, and a handle connected to a resistance mechanism. Users pull the handle while pushing with their legs, engaging multiple muscle groups, including the back, arms, and legs. Rowing machines are popular for cardiovascular workouts and strength training. These machines come in various types, including air resistance, water resistance, and magnetic resistance models. They can be found in gyms and homes, making them accessible for people of all fitness levels. Regular use can improve endurance, strength, and overall fitness.
