rowing machines
Stationary water simulators
Rowing machines are exercise equipment that simulates the motion of rowing a boat.
The user sits on a sliding seat, grips a handle attached to a cable or chain, and pulls while pushing back with the legs.
The movement engages most major muscle groups, making rowing machines popular for cardiovascular and strength training: I spend twenty minutes on the rowing machine before lifting weights.
Also called ergometers or ergs in competitive rowing contexts.
