Concept2 RowErg Model D PM5 Monitor
The Concept2 RowErg with PM5 monitor is the quintessential piece of commercial gym equipment, trusted by athletes and fitness professionals worldwide. Known for its exceptional build quality and superior performance, this rowing machine provides a full-body workout that is both highly efficient and kind to the joints. It is a foundational addition to any gym floor, training facility, or high-performance home gym.
The heart of the RowErg is its flywheel resistance system. The air-based flywheel provides a natural, responsive feel that closely mimics the dynamics of rowing on water. The resistance is automatically adjusted by the user’s effort; the harder and faster you row, the more resistance is generated. This offers a truly intuitive and infinite range of resistance, making it suitable for everyone from beginners to elite athletes. The user can also use the damper lever to adjust the airflow to the flywheel, which provides the feel of a lighter or heavier boat.
The machine’s performance is driven by the industry-standard PM5 Performance Monitor. This powerful console tracks every aspect of your workout, including watts, calories, distance, pace, and strokes per minute. It also features wireless connectivity via Bluetooth and ANT+, allowing you to connect to a variety of fitness apps, heart rate belts, and smart devices. The monitor’s accuracy and reliability are unparalleled, making it a perfect tool for tracking progress, competing with others, and setting goals. The RowErg is built with a durable frame that is both stable and easily stored, as it can be quickly separated into two pieces. Its smooth, quiet operation and comfortable, ergonomic design make it a gym essential for low-impact, high-intensity cardio and strength training.
The Concept2 RowErg® sets the standard for indoor rowing machines. Built by rowers, for rowers, the RowErg is used by people of all ages and abilities worldwide who want a full-body, low-impact workout.
As engineers, we value clean, effective design. The RowErg is engineered to work smoothly, be easy to maintain, and last a lifetime. This is the same machine used by Olympic- and elite-level athletes to train for their sport—it’ll take the abuse of heavy training day after day. At the same time, it supports the training goals of everyone, whether you’re just starting out on your fitness journey, looking to start something new, or a long-time athlete.
The new Concept2 RowErg is available with a tall leg option which replaces the Model E, which has been discontinued. A higher seat is not required for taller users, and both machines will fit inseams up to 38 inches (96.5 cm). Rowers with an inseam longer than this may require an extra-long monorail.
The RowErg has an integrated device holder that allows you to keep your smartphone or tablet securely in place. The device holder fits everything from small smartphones to large tablets and is easily and quickly adjustable.
