Best investment for your health and well being

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We just love the RW900 rower. My husband wasn’t interested at first but once he tried it, he loves it. We feel better, feel stronger and have only had the rower less than 3 weeks. Starting to see results as well. Can’t wait to see my results in a couple of months. Best investment for our health for sure. The instructors in the videos are great. I totally recommend this rower.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This rower is smooth and allows you to maintain a constant SPM. Others I have tried were almost impossible to hold a steady SPM. The resistance and slide are very smooth.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent workout for total body and low impact. I love to travel the world while working out. Great between runs to reduce impact and increase recovery.
I have always been a treadmill user. In an effort to exercise my upper body, I ended up getting the rower for the first time. To my surprise, it has been a great addition to my fitness line-up. Not only do I actually use it, I look forward to using the rower on a daily basis and feel that I am getting the balance that I was looking for.
I've had the newer model for about 2 months now and it seems great! iFit is iFit so content is all still there (yes it's a subscription but know this going into the purchase). I like how the monitor can rotate facing outward, it's easy to use and not terribly complicated to put together.
I fell in love with rowing the first time I tried it (in a fitness studio)! The only issue was I didn't get to choose how much rowing I'd be able to do each session and I always wanted more.
After a few years of this, I finally decided to buy my own rower. And I love the NordicTrack RW900 Rower! It is very smooth, has lots of workout programs, and a super big monitor. You can choose from so many workouts (in beautiful settings), do your own workout, or set up a program on your own with iFit too. The huge monitor is super nice, making it more fun to do the workout programs (on gorgeous lakes in different places around the world). Or you can watch a movie on the monitor while rowing!
There are a couple of things that bother me a little bit though. The seat is a little wobbly and small. And the straps on the foot pads don't go tight enough if I'm not wearing the right shoes (ones that have a wide base). But I think the seat is just different than what I'm used to and I just need to get used to it. I'm totally fine once I get moving.
I do really love having my own rower in my home gym, and there really isn't a better option out there! So I'm going to continue to row, row, row my boat on this fun piece of equipment! It is just such a good total body workout!
