Ever since classes started last week, and I had to start walking a Goddamn 1/4 of mile from the parking lot to classes in windy 10 degree weather, I have noticed that I have been getting winded alot more easily then I use to.
I was originally thinking about getting a treadmill, but decided against it realizing it would make too much noise, and the tenants under me might not appreciate the constant stomping.
I was checking out the classifieds and found a great deal on a rowing machine. I have never used a rowing machine, so are they any good for cardio?
Do they produced alot of noise?
This isn't the exact model, but it looks similar to this compact design,
Its priced considerably lower then treadmills, bikes, and other cardio equipment.
I read they are very beneficial in that they utilize most of the major muscle groups in the body, not only the legs.
It is also very compact, (compared to treadmills and stationary bikes) which is another plus for my tiny apt.
Is that type of rowing machine any good?
What are some other types of cardio machines you would suggest?
