Our gym had purchased 7 Indoor Rowers and was sponsoring a contest. I joined, and in 2 1/2 weeks , three of us rowed 1,000,000 meters. We became members of the Team Million Club December 20, 1995. We became members of the Team 5 Million Club March 19, 1996. Plus, by March of 1996, I had lost 60.75 lbs. and weighed 130 lbs. I had rowed my way to heart healthiness and was given a clean bill of health by my physician and taken off blood pressure medication. Though I’ve personally rowed over 10,000,000 meters by late 1997, it was not documented. Since going online, I’ve rowed close to 3,000,000 meters.

My rowing machine is one of the older models. I cannot afford a new one, but I keep this one in good shape and it is by the side of my bed – I use it daily. I will send you a picture as soon as I become computer friendly. Ha! but, believe me, I’m married to my Concept2 and John, my hubby, doesn’t mind playing second fiddle!

I live in Blue Ash Ohio with my wife and 3 high school age children. My invalid uncle also lives with us and the indoor rower works great in as much as I can get a great workout and still be at home to take care of my uncle.

I love the workout I get on the Concept2 rower. I have lost about 50 lbs since I started my exercise program, with rowing the main component, and I feel great.

We have integrated our social media marketing so you can keep up to date with all that is happening at Concept2 via the website, facebook and twitter.
