ergometer
Indoor rowing machine
An ergometer is a device that measures the work or energy expended during physical exercise.
Rowing machines, stationary bikes, and similar fitness equipment are ergometers when they track output: She set a personal record on the rowing ergometer.
Often shortened to erg in gym settings: I spent twenty minutes on the erg.
