Ditching your Dad Bod and getting fit doesn’t have to be hard – especially when you have the right exercise equipment. As a busy guy, you don’t have hours and hours to spend trying to work out.
That’s why your workouts have to be focused and quick. With a rowing machine like the Concept2 Model D Indoor Rowing Machine, you can get in a quick, but tough workout that allows you to exercise all of your major muscle groups.
When you exercise on a rowing machine, you hit all of the problem areas that you need to target. Including regular rowing sessions in your workouts will help you to tone your arms, strengthen your core, and condition the muscles in your hips and buttocks.
Rowing is a form of exercise that uses resistance to strengthen your muscles. Using a rowing machine can help you burn hundreds of calories in just one workout. This makes the rowing machine an excellent choice for guys who are looking to lose that Dad Bod belly and tighten up those soft biceps.
This machine has an adjustable monitor arm and a weight capacity of up to 500 pounds. What many men that have used the Concept2 Model D Indoor Rowing Machine love is that you can race against other users.
This adds an element of community and encourages health competition. It’s easier to stick to your exercise regimen when you know that other people are counting on you to show up to your workout and Concept2 is known for its supportive and kind community.
If you’d prefer to exercise alone, you can do that, too. This rowing machine has several interactive games that you can play as part of your rowing exercises. There are also preset exercise routines that can keep you from getting bored while you’re working out.
Keep in mind that form matters in all types of exercise – but especially in rowing. Poor form could cause you to injure your lower back or cause an existing back injury to worsen.
For this reason, it’s important that you follow instructions when using the machine. Assembling the Concept2 Model D Indoor Rowing Machine is easy. The machine will arrive in two pieces and using about eight screws and bolts, all you have to do is attach the pieces together.
The whole process takes less than twenty minutes for most people. Some men found the seat of this machine uncomfortable at first. You can buy a cushioned seat if you want.
But the seat is actually designed to be uncomfortable to strengthen your glutes, giving you a firmer bottom. What you might want to do is use a cushion for the first few workouts and then stop using it after you’ve gotten familiar with the machine. Using a rowing machine is a good way to burn excess calories and get rid of your Dad Bod for good.
