Why water resistance is best
Easy on the back

Resistance is evenly distributed throughout the stroke, taking strain off your back while making your arms and core pick up more of the work.

Smooth, dynamic resistance

Resistance adjusts with your effort, meaning harder strokes meet more resistance, just like paddling in the water. No complicated settings to maneuver.

Nearly silent

The quiet, soothing sound of water won’t wake your housemates and spares you from Hydrow’s high-pitched electromagnetic buzz.
