Rowing is widely known to be one of the best all around fitness activities. All major muscle groups including legs, arms, back, abdominal and buttocks are used extensively while rowing.  Rowing also provides aerobic conditioning as well as strength training which makes rowing a very time efficient exercise. This dual-purpose workout is a great calorie burner as well.  Because rowing is an impact free activity, it can be a life-long form of exercise. Rowing is also one of the few exercise devices that can strengthen the back.

You can get a really good full body workout by doing a rowing routine 3 days a week, such as Monday, Wednesday and Friday. A good way to train on a rowing machine is to do sets of 100 reps each. Do 1 set of 100 reps in your first workout and add an additional set each time you workout. Work your way up to 3 to 5 sets of 100 reps.

For burning fat and losing weight, combine this routine with a Fat Burner Supplement and replace one of your 3 daily meals with a Meal Replacement Supplement. Visit the Supplements page for information on the top Fat Burner Supplements and Meal Replacement Supplements.
