Common questions
What can I do instead of the Rowing Machine?
The Run, Burpee and Ski Step deliver the same conditioning stimulus. Swap them minute for minute: whatever duration or intervals you planned for the Rowing Machine apply directly.
Do these burn similar calories?
At a matched effort level, yes, total work drives calorie burn more than the specific tool. Pick the option you can push hardest on with joints that feel good.
