I wonder if anyone else has used a rowing machine before at the gym. It was a seated, on-the-floor machine in which you actually mimicked rowing action and it was really great for toning up back and arm muscles. I say that it 'was' because unfortunately they removed it from our gym recently. One of the personal trainers told me that it was now considered obsolete and was being replaced by a new resistive type of equipment. I was disappointed to hear this because I always seemed to get good results with it. It was also good for a cardiovascular workout as well.

Riggy, I remember many years back using one that had a video screen that had you competing against another rowers. I had so much fun with that machine, and the fake competition really made it fun.

Wow Lyricb, that brought memories for me too! I had totally forgotten about those competition rowers, but you're right...they were a lot of fun! I don't know what happened to them either....oh well.
