WaterRower M1 LoRise Rowing Machine w/ S4 Monitor

The WaterRower M1 LoRise Rowing Machine is full commercial rower backed by WaterRower's standard 3-year commercial warranty. It is called the "LoRise" because the seat is a standard 12 inches off the floor, compared to the HiRise model with a seat 20 inches off the floor (easier access). This frame is fabricated from hardy tubular steel, requiring minimal care or maintenance in even the toughest of environments. Using the same principles that govern the dynamics of a boat in water, the WaterRower M1 LoRise Rowing Machine provides an unlimited range of resistance making it suitable for a variety of strength and skill levels. In a boat, the faster you move, the greater the drag and the greater the intensity of exercise required to maintain your speed. The limit to the speed you can maintain is you, your physiology, not the machine. For maximum realism and comfort, the WaterRower M1 LoRise's precision spragg clutch engages the instant the handle is pulled, so there is no jerkiness or jarring at the beginning of the stroke. The WaterRower M1 LoRise Rowing Machine leaves you with the distinct sense that you are gliding effortlessly across the water. Features Infinitely Variable Resistance: The benefit of a water resistance rower is that it most closely simulates a boat moving through water. When rowing the resistance is due to the effect of fluid drag acting on the boat. Go faster, resistance increases. Go slower resistance decreases. Importantly, the user chooses; regardless of age, gender, size or fitness. The WaterRower M1 LoRise's patented WaterFlywheel emulates this naturally self-paced benefit of rowing. This is a workout you can start benefitting from immediately, regardless of experience! Silent Flywheel: Because the patented WaterFlywheel replicates the same physical dynamics as rowing, its operation is just as silent. When the handle is pulled, only the soothing sound of rushing water is heard. The WaterRower M1 LoRise's frame also assists in dampening noise and vibration, making this one of the smoothest machines on the market. Balanced Tear-drop Handle The handle of the WaterRower M1 LoRise is made of aluminum for strength and lightness, with a tear-drop shape that fits comfortably into the palm of the hand to minimize wrist torque - a common cause of tendonitis. Because of its strength and lightness, the drive strap of the WaterRower M1 LoRise is high-density polyester webbing, guided by nylon pulleys. The drive strap does not wear and is maintenance-free, requiring no messy lubrication. Ergonomically Contoured Seat: Supported on all four corners and ergonomically designed to provide maximum comfort, the WaterRower M1 LoRise seat is incredibly stable, gliding smoothly on eight urethane wheels. Floating Heel-Rest Design: The Rowing Machine's footboard incorporates the all-new Floating Heel-Rest design. The cup of the heel-rest follows the heel as it rises from the footboard providing stability and comfort from the beginning to end of ea
