ergometers
Gym rowing machines
Ergometers are exercise machines that measure work output during physical activity.
The most common types are rowing ergometers and stationary bicycles, used both for training and for standardized fitness testing.
Athletes and researchers use ergometers to quantify performance: Her time on the rowing ergometer qualified her for the team.
Often shortened to erg in gym settings.
