We use our BIOROWER not just during winter,
but also in the summer. I can teach my athletes
technique simply better than on the water.
For me, it is the perfect rowing machine.

Although I had been rowing for years,
I knew comparatively little about my
technique. The BIOROWER unmistakably
showed me how much potential my stroke
has. Thanks to the live-feedback it helps
me to professionally and continuosely
improve my rowing technique.

It was a couple years ago, when I stopped coaching and started to compete again myself. I think I was
a successful coach and I had gained good knowledge about rowing technique. Now, I wanted to use
my knowledge for myself - but who was going to look after a masters-D rower? During winter season I
intensively worked with a BIOROWERS1singlescull.
This wonderful training device showed me important facts about my technique - stroke by stroke:
for example the stroke length, the development of the force that I brought onto my oars, watts, angle
positions (seat position),etc - permanently, every stroke of my practice.
My race times in the boat improved by one minute, I think because this machine barely excuses any
mistakes - I reckon it is built like a single scull, which is the best advantage over common ergometers.
I can go into the catch position just as I do in my boat.
I can control my sliding, my leg drive, I can see, at which point of the stroke I have the most power
output, I can see how far I have to pull with my arms and how to stabilize my back, I know when my
shoulders overlap my hips - something to control the negative force when coming up to the catch - and
I can see when I open my hip angle during the leg drive. These are facts that no common ergometer
can offer! I can only give the advice to my fellow rowers: practice with this machine and you will earn
success. This way practice becomes effective. Use your power the right way; you are going to see
how smooth your boat is going to float.

There are lots of companies in the world. Only few of them are truly led by a vision.
BIOROWER is proud to be one of them and this is why we appreciate your feedback.
Read here rewarding statements from BIOROWER users of all different ages and groups.
I was able to enhance my stability for any stroke rate
by training on the BIOROWER with live biomech. feedback.
I could have never done this on a regular ergometer.
Therefore, winter training on the BIOROWER has
improved my technique for the boat as well.

Two months ago I've got laught at because of my girls in the double scull, at a coaches meeting.
They have 15"-s weaker erg scores in average than the 2nd place double, and they are only 5kg-s lighter in
average (They are weak).
After winning the race everyone congratulated at the coaches board meeting. People change so rapidly.
They need to defend their place this sunday, and the get selected for the Juinor Europeans.
So afterall, the BIOROWER concept has again shown more proof than pure power on ergs.

The R2 actually feels like a realpair. I can think of myself rowing long session on it since
rowing on the R2 quickly gives me the feeling of rowing a good pair.
