      That thing looks loud. It also looks like a good workout, but if you’re at the gym you probably want more isolation.

        It weighs 100 pounds and isn’t particularly loud. I tried it once to see how it was supposed to work. I didn’t see any advantage over other machines and I much prefer being able to change the difficulty.

        To be fair, it’s a new acquisition and I don’t spend hours in the weight room, so it might be very popular with other folks. To me, it just looks silly.

          This is the kind of thing you use outdoors in a field when you don’t have anything else at your disposal. It’s big and heavy and moving it around is a workout, just like a lot of other physical labor. I recently dug a drainage ditch across my 100% solid clay yard (after you get past the 3" of topsoil) and I felt that one the next day, lol.

      Should’ve put springs on the other side so it would bounce back to you after you flipped it over

      (yes I’m aware this would be dangerous)

        Even though the effort is real, it seems phony to me. It’s as if they made the rowing machine look like a Viking long boat. It just seems like something Bart or Homer Simpson would use at Krusty’s Werld O’ Fitness
