Why Rowing?

 

 

“And so in time the rowboat and I became one and the same-like the archer and his bow or the artist and his paint. What I learned wasn't mastery over the elements; it was mastery over myself, which is what conquest is ultimately all about.” 

― Richard Bode , First You Have to Row a Little Boat: Reflections on Life & Living

 

 

Rowing is freedom…

It is where I go to think, to not think, to unwind, and to work out.  I love being out on the water away from the headlines, the distractions of everyday life. My singular focus shifts to improving myself. Go faster, go further, and go longer.

 

There are many wonderful exercise options, but nothing gives you the full body workout of rowing.  It is a full body, aerobic workout.  Lower body….check…..Upper body…..check……Core…..check. It is a great workout for those with bad knees or bad backs. It takes moments to learn, but most of all it is fun.

 

If I could, I’d be out on the water everyday but that simply isn’t possible in the Northeast with the cold weather, rain, and snow. Rowflo gives you the next best thing. With video monitors immersing you in scenery from some of the great rivers around the world, Rowflo gives you a whole international rowing experience in the comfort of your own home.
