I came across it while I was looking for an affordable rower to review for my home gym and had to see what all the hype was about. Now the bike was one of the hottest selling workout machines of 2020 and Sunny Health & Fitness has done a really good job of keeping it relevant by offering instructor lead classes here on UA-cam. This thing is a monster y'all! I was surprised by how many body parts I could work while using it. Check out the video and let me know what you all think about it comments. Love and peace everybody. Out!

    I'm 63 I just got this machine 3 days ago and I can say it gave me a good cardio workout and it don't put no stress on my old knees. I do as a beginner 5 sets of 25 with 60-second rest. As I get stronger this will change.

    Used to have a similar thing but the handles could be pushed or pulled (a simple mechanism changed it quickly) while the lower body motion stayed the same. Used to ride it for 20 minutes straight - 5 push, 5 pull, 5 push, 5 pull. I've looked for one that does that but haven't found it. Can't remember what it was called, but it was as cool as Fonzi!

    • @UsawaFitness

      It's a lot different then a normal towing machine. It puts more of an emphasis on your glutes then a normal rowing machine. If you want to focus on your body more I'd probably go with a traditional rower.

    • @UsawaFitness
      @UsawaFitness  3 роки тому +2

      Hey thanks for watching! So the Row-N-Ride is definitely a full body workout and the ab work that you get out of it is based on your ability to contract your abs through movement. I feel A LOT of ab engagement and a good ab workout when I'm using it but I'm really focusing on contracting my core throughout the session. If you typically train the same way you're going to find that you get a really good ab workout when using one of these things.

      @UsawaFitness  2 роки тому

      So I don't have a DB Method but this Row-N-Ride is an incredible piece of fitness equipment in my opinion. Looking at the two I like that the Row-N-Ride targets the upper body a little more because of the added rowing motion of the moving handle bar. That's the biggest difference that I see just using the eye test. But here I look for budget friendly gear to test and there is a $229 dollar price difference between these two devices and I can't see that kind of gap between the two.

      Hmm? It's hard to say Darcey. It's an unbelievable piece of gear for $99 and I can get a really good workout on it every time. But an elliptical is nice too! The elliptical is probably going to allow you to watch a show or something while you ride it which may encourage you to ride more but Sunny Health and Fitness has a bunch of UA-cam classes that you can follow to keep you entertained and motivated. If you're getting an electric powered elliptical you're probably going to be able to add a little more resistance to the workout which is helpful but that's going to cost a lot more. Personally if I had a client asking me this question I'd probably suggest the Row-N-Ride because it's cheaper and sometimes people buy things like this and then trail off on following through with actually using them. This would be a less expensive clothes hanger in that case. 🤣 I'm not sure if this helps you or not I'm just trying to lay out a few things to consider. Feel free to email me if you'd like some more thoughts. Good luck either way and thank you for taking time to watch my content. I appreciate it.
