Can you use resistance bands as rowing machine?
Rowing with a band will help you target the same upper-body muscles, including your arms, back and core. And you can make the rowing more challenging by simply upping the resistance level of your band. ... Lastly, when you put these exercises into a HIIT structure, you re-create the rowing machine's cardio benefits, too.
How do I add resistance to my rowing machine?
Resistance is adjusted by changing the damper setting on a Concept2 (and most standard rowing machines). You'll notice a handle next to the flywheel with settings 1-10. Changing the position of the handle alters the amount of air flowing into the flywheel.
