If you're looking for a real-world rowing feeling look no further than the Stamina Body Trac Glider 1050 Rowing Machine. You get full-motion arms on the Stamina Body Trac Glider which simulates the feel of outdoor rowing on the actual water resistance. 

The unique design enables a full-body workout, working for every major muscle group from the back, arms, legs, glutes, and abs. You get cardiovascular benefits and get to burn calories all at a very very affordable price in your home!

Keep focused during your workout with a multi-functional, easy-to-read large LCD console. It allows you to track your workout time, stroke count, calories burned and total strokes accumulated. 

If you want to kick up the intensity of your stroke, simply adjust the hydraulic resistance, which emits minimal noise. 

Rowing for longer has never been easier with a comfortable molded seat, textured footplates with straps, and padded hand grips, making sure that you maintain a solid grip at all times. 

The sturdy steel construction of the frame offers a sturdy rower and after your workout, you can fold the arms to fold the rowing machine for easy storage.
