Here is a piece of fitness kit that all you Made-In-America fans will absolutely love. This piece of fitness equipment called the WaterRower simulates rowing a boat right indoors on a sizzling hot hardwood frame. For the rowing exercise the WaterRower has a handle which needs to be tugged. As this handle moves fore and aft, it will move a propeller that will spin water in a transparent cylinder upfront, apart from it’s main purpose of helping you lose a thousand calories in an hour. After use, the WaterRower can be made to stand vertically thus saving you a lot of space.
Meanwhile, The water splashing looks more like a clever motivational ploy as many people like to see instantly see the resultant of their actions. Feng Shui fans too might like the soothing swoosh of water as they workout. The makers of the WaterRower also make some tall claims of the hardwood frame being made up of Ash, Cherrywood and Black American Walnut wood which has been harvested from replenishable sources. That still doesn’t cut the ice for me as I fell it is pretty needless to cut down exotic trees to make a piece of exercise equipment that could have been made using rubberwood and its like. Though the WaterRower is one very classy piece of exercise kit, it gets my thumbs down for chopping own trees for it’s frame.
