Rowing machine for warm up

 Exercising is means of increasing your fitness, it is recommended for all individuals to embark on it but before any exercise, a warm-up is designed to prepare an exerciser for training or competition, and can improve subsequent performance and lessen the risk of injuries. A warm-up should be incorporated into every program design.

A warm-up using a Rowing Machine is important before any exerciser performance or physical activity, the goal being to prepare the exerciser mentally and physically for competitive exercise. A well-designed warm-up should increase muscle temperature, circulation, and provide an opportunity for skill rehearsal. Moreover, one of the aspects of a warm-up is simply to “stir” cellular content so the sarcoplasm becomes liquefied. These warm-up effects can have the following positive impacts on performance:  

• Faster muscle contraction and relaxation of both agonist and antagonist muscles.  

• Improvements in the rate of force development and reaction time  

• Improvements in muscle strength and power  

• Lowered viscous resistance in muscles  

• Improved oxygen delivery due to the Bohr effect, whereby higher temperatures facilitate  

• oxygen release from hemoglobin and myoglobin  

• Increased blood flow to active muscles  

• Enhanced metabolic reactions  

A specific warm-up period incorporates movements similar to the movements of the athlete’s sport which rowing machine is the ideal solution and alternative for most athletes. It involves 10 – 15 min of dynamic stretching that focuses on movements that work through the range of motion required for the sport, such as the walking knee, body movement.
