Rowing Machine?

I actually really like using the rowing machine. Oddly enough, it's because I hate working out, and want to get it over quickly. They accomplish that handily.

Perfect logic to me.

Guess that's why I never see anybody using them. Guess that also means I won't be using it anytime soon. God forbid I get on there and can only go for a few minutes. Then I wind up looking like the bitch I am in front of everyone.

Fuck be worried about only a few minutes. Just do 200 meter sprints. Put it on setting 5-10 (I never notice a difference in the settings) and row your fucking ass off for 200-250 meters. Rest a minute, and do another sprint. It is a beating, but doable.

I love the rowing machine, one of my favorite machines.

I start my workouts with the rowing machine as a warm-up. A good way to get loose.

I personally don't like the "watch how somebody else does it" method because what if theyre doing it wrong. Working at a gym is funny because I'd say at least half the people there have horrible form. Rowing machine specific, keep upright. Most people lean way forward and pull way back. Good way to fuck up your back. So stay postured up as much as possible. The rowing machine is great when used properly.

Looked at few. This is how it's done:

Crossfit workout a few weeks ago was row 5,000 meters and then do pull ups and something else. After the rowing I was pretty much done.

Perfect logic to me.

This ain't glandular, brother. I'm fat for a reason.
