Completely changed my WaterRower

The upgrade is as good as they say

"Absolutely, totally changes the manner in which I use the WaterRower, and that's a good thing. Previously I'd used it about 8 to 10 times a month; now, it's just about every single day."

Fun add-on for WaterRower

"I've had a water rower for a long time. I use it several days a week but I had plateaued. Since purchasing the Ergatta upgrade, I have increased the intensity of my workouts significantly, am pushing through barriers and have lost a significant amount of stubborn weight."

Quite Addicting

“I used to find rowing monotonous and kinda boring but now I feel like I’m able to challenge myself and it does get quite addicting. My husband and I are starting to compete against each other’s times too, which makes it fun as well.”

Reenergized my workouts!

I have had a water rower for 3 years. I bought the Ergatta and use it at work to reenergize my workouts. I love the gaming system, easy to track data, goals and accomplishments are easy to see. I also just bought the upgrade system for my rower at home.

Healthy exercise routine

Purchased my Water Rower at the beginning of COVID. At the time, there was a backorder, because everyone was trying to figure out the best way to stay active while in lockdown at home. I received mine after a 3 month wait, and it was money well spent. Eventually though, I hit a wall, not knowing how to get to the next level (I also got COVID, which derailed my routine for almost an entire year).

When I saw that Ergatta had a special for the add-on computer/tablet accessory and subscription to their coordinated workout programs, I bought it. It was a total game-changer! The programs were exactly what I needed to get motivated again in my exercise routine. Now rowing is more like a video game than a tedious monotony of repeated moves without rhyme or reason. My only suggestion to Ergatta would be to put better speakers on the computer screen if you want to listen to the optional music soundtrack that is available when working out (but the screen has Bluetooth capability, so you can connect to an external sound source).

Overall I am very happy with my Water Rower, and I know it has had a positive effect on my health.

Game changer

I had my water rower for 3 years but didn;t use it much bacuse I would tire myself out the first couple minutes. I didnt know how to pace muself. I decided to invest in the ergatta add on with the Christmas promo. I've been using it since December 29th. I started with 10 min sessions for a few days, then 15 and 20 and now I've worked my way up to 30 minutes session at 5K+. My goal is to be able to go an hour and 10k+ in Jan, I passed the 80k mark and dropped 12 lbs.... it's been a real game changer for me. I feel more energized, sleep better, not winded from carrying in water bottles....I really like the meteor programs
