“Whether you’re a world class athlete or simply enjoy rowing at home, myrow is the perfect workout companion, said myrow founder Gary Simpson. He added, “myrow is a game changer for rowing enthusiasts who already trust the quality of the Concept2 but crave a more modern interactive training program, led by top notch coaches in the rowing field.”
The myrow tablet is easy to connect to the Concept2 rower and will offer classes from a great group of coaches who specialize in rowing workouts, which include a member of the 2024 Paris Olympic rowing team, and Shane Farmer - founder of Dark Horse Rowing, a leading indoor rowing educator, master instructor for Concept2, and college rower.
In addition, Tom Miazga, US Paralympic swimmer in the 2008 Beijing Olympic games and 7-time CrossFit Fittest Seated Man winner, leads the adaptive series of workouts, and John Breen former assistant coach for the University of Pennsylvania women’s rowing team leads neuro-cognitive disorders and neuro-degenerative workouts, which include workouts for those on the spectrum, with Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, and ALS. There are also non-rowing workouts, such as Pilates.
The tablets will come preloaded with over 85 workout videos, including FTP Zone workouts, a large selection of preset workouts and training plans (non-videos) and will have a constantly growing library of workouts. In addition to the curated coach-led workouts there are also tutorials for beginners, training plans, challenges, Concept2's “Workout of the Day”, and the ability to create your own workouts. The tablet also provides the user with robust stats and analytics all in one place. In addition, you can sync with Concept2’s Online Logbook from the myrow tablet. Myrow users can also connect to their friends with the myrow tablet for group rows.
At home rowing machines offer a highly efficient full-body workout without subjecting your joints to excessive strain. A staple in dryland training for crew teams as well as swimmers, rowing machines have since become a fitness tool for personal trainers, fitness enthusiasts and CrossFit enthusiasts alike. Rowing machines are quieter than treadmills and more effective than exercise bikes, as they target and strengthen major muscle groups throughout the entire body, including the legs, glutes, core, arms, back and shoulders. Rowing provides a gentler yet highly effective method for burning calories and building muscle.
