Rowing/Stationary Rowing Machine Exercise Shortcut

[Donnaj415]

Considering most of the important cardio equipment is represented in the Exercise list, I think it's more than justifiable to add a stationary rowing machine to the list. Almost every gym in America contains at least one or more Concept 2 rower as it is a total body and low impact method of Cardio. It's one of my favorites and I'm sure I am not the only user that is a bit disappointed that is not represented.

I'm sure if you contact Concept2, the world leader in rowing machines, they could help with the needed metrics.

Is there a way to track steps while I use my NordicTrack rowing machine?

It would be very nice to track my (almost daily) rowing activities. I don't get why there are almost no watersports available since the Charge 4 is water resistant.

I have a Charge 2—yup, it’s old, but so am I. I have rowed my way through Covid on a simple home rower, but I have no way to track it. Please add a rowing tracker.

You have golf and karate as an exercise, but not rowing, when rowing is just as difficult as any other machine at the gym.

This is very popular exercise in general and growing in popularity due to no-impact nature of this exercise.

I'd just like to see the option for rowing added as an exercise shortcut. I use an Inspire 2 and row frequently outside and inside.
