How Did The Rowing Machine Come About?
A rowing machine has been around since the 1900s and was a machine that used lined air-filled resistance, but was not very good. In the 1950s and 1960s coaches used them to train and measure power. At the time it was very bulky and unpopular to use. They had a big steel wheel with a brake and were heavy. In 1980 they came out with the air design and in 1988 the flywheel design came out.
