Testing a BUDGET Rowing Machine with HYDROW App | Peloton of Rowing DOUFIT Review

Did you know that with rowing, you can burn up to 800 calories per hour AND it utilizes 86% of the muscles within your body? This gives you a full body workout combining cardio and strength training. Shopping for a rowing machine can seem daunting, especially since it’s less of a common at-home exercise machine. I’ve reviewed a number of spin bikes as well as compact, foldable treadmills on my channel and this is my first experience reviewing a rowing machine. As with any product, there are budget as well as high-end options. The popular “Hydrow”, or aptly-considered the “Peloton of rowing machines”, has a retail price of $2,245. Its sleek design also includes a 22” screen for streaming classes; similar to the Peloton. Their “Digital Basic” membership is $19.99 per month and also includes a free 30 day trial, which I am currently utilizing. Before we get started, I want to mention that I was graciously gifted this DOUFIT Rowing Machine; they aren’t paying me anything for this video, I just wanted to share my own thoughts and opinions on it from a beginner’s perspective. Today’s video will be broken into the following topic areas: 1. DOUFIT Rowing Machine Details 2. Assembly 3.

It should focus on your lower body powerhouse muscles, including the glutes, hamstrings, and quads - Rowing Terms: - Strokes per minute (recommended at 30 or less) - Split time: how long it takes to row 500 meters (1/3 of a mile). Aim for 2 min or less Rowing Exercises to try: 1. Leg Isolations: start in the “catch position” = arms extended, knees bent, weight on balls of feet. Push back only using your legs, keeping your arms extended throughout 2. Arm Isolations: with legs straight, pull oar towards chest Tips: - Hold bar as if it’s a pull up bar, no death grip - Don’t hunch back - Don’t raise arms too high - Don’t let knees drop to side; finish with your knees in line with your hips Sources1. https://greatist.com/move/how-to-use-a-rowing-machine#workout This rowing machine is a great addition to my home gym, it’s small, compact, yet quite sturdy. I like that there’s 8 levels of magnetic resistance making it not too loud when using. Setup was simple, and their assembly video helped a lot too. I did have to oil the track to make it smoother but it’s a simple thing to do. It’s quick and easy to store, only downside is that it stores upright but I think that’s typical with most rowing machines. I highly recommend this rowing machine especially for the price! ▶ Social Media Instagram: @christinamariepeloton https://www.instagram.com/christinamariepeloton/ Website: www.christinamariefit.com Peloton Leaderboard: ChristinaLacey ▶ Related Products Joroto IW9 Treadmill https://jorotofitness.com/products/joroto-iw9-pro-folding-treadmill?ref=ChristinaMarie (Code “Christina for $30 off) Flybird 25 lb adjustable weights https://flybirdfitness.com/?ref=C7sfnmXkPijbh Finer form workout bench https://finerform.pxf.io/c/2666836/1002357/13136 Marble Tumbler https://nayad.com/products/nayad-tumbler-marble?ref=C7sfnmXkPijbh Code “ChristinaMarie” for 10% off TEAMI Green Superfood Powder Code “CHRISMARIE20” for 20% off https://www.teamiblends.com/products/ ...
