Is the rowing machine effective for weight loss?

People in modern life pay more attention to their external image, so many people will do some weight loss exercises in their spare time. There are many exercises for weight loss. Some people may exercise through running, and some people may control their diet, but the rowing machine is also a weight loss exercise. Next, let me introduce to you the weight loss effect of the rowing machine. You can learn it carefully.

During rowing, approximately 90% of the extensor muscles are involved in every flexion and extension movement of the body and every stroke of the oars. Therefore, it is of great benefit to the extensor muscles that are hardly involved in any movement at ordinary times. The rowing movement is effective in training the back muscles, allowing the spine to achieve the maximum range of motion in forward flexion and backward extension, while effectively mobilizing the joints of the spine, which not only enhances elasticity but also increases toughness.

When practicing "rowing", pay attention to the continuity of the movements and do not pause in each stretching movement. The movements during rowing must be in place. If the amplitude is too small, the muscles involved in the exercise cannot fully stretch and contract.

If the purpose of exercise is to lose weight, the strength of the handle should be adjusted to medium or low intensity, and each rowing time should not be less than 30 minutes, with a short rest in between. If the strength is adjusted to medium intensity, muscle strength can be exercised, while significantly relieving tension in the back muscles and assisting in the treatment of old or new injuries. If it is adjusted to maximum intensity, the effect of toning the back muscles can be achieved. Pay attention to breathing coordination during exercise (exhale when leaning forward, inhale when leaning back), with a rest period of no more than 1 minute. Do 3 times as a set, with a 3-minute rest period between sets, and do 4 to 5 sets in total.

Rowing machines are a type of multi-trainer that come in many varieties for home use. Many machines have added massage and arm strength training designs based on treadmills, and have added magnetic control and other equipment based on fitness bikes, playing the role of both exercising and maintaining health.

There are many ways to lose weight since ancient times, and the rowing machine is also effective in losing weight. After reading the above information about the weight loss effect of the rowing machine, has it helped everyone? In life, we can combine the rowing machine with other sports, so that we can lose weight better. At the same time, we must also eat a balanced diet and develop good living habits.
