Costco is now selling a rower called the ProForm Sport RL Smart Rower! This machine comes in at a very reasonable cost of only $400 INCLUDING a one-year free membership to iFit. Is all of this worth it? Can you row well on this machine without issues? I talk about it all here in this in-depth review and give my final thoughts on the machine!

I bought this machine and like you point out its a good start. I'm using the machine with your videos and left the ifit programs for now. Keep up the videos, they are the only videos I found that helped me get into rowing from a beginners perspective.

some people are saying that if you hold down some 'ifit' button for 30 seconds, it disables it and lets you go into a more manual mode. And that there is a battery compartment in the back of the display. If you can pull 1:30 for 500m on a c2, that's actually better than like 98% of rowers, so you're probably too strong and fast for this machine, but it's probably good for a lot of more medium conditioned people.

Great review of the machine and thank you for video! I bought this machine a couple of days ago. I enjoyed my first workout with it today. My only complaint is the lack of manual settings. I just wanted to row interval while rocking to my music. The ifit is ok, I think the instructor just talks too much. I haven't explored all of ifit though, so take it for what's it worth. Overall I'm happy with the purchase and do recommend it for a beginner/someone trying to get healthy. Like myself.

@juliebushinger9187 3 жыл бұрын

Since I already use iFit with my NordicTrack treadmill and am just a beginner rower, I went for it and bought this. I couldn’t see splurging on the Concept 2 not knowing how much I would use it. I’m small at 5’3” and admittedly am not cranking out hard and fast strokes - so this has actually been a great starter option. Time will tell if I need to upgrade down the road, but it’s definitely getting the job done and is comfortable to use.

Being able to hike the Swiss Alps and Everest and then take a walk on a Costa Rican beach, and yoga in Tahiti.....makes the experience a plus for me! As far as reviewing iFit with this rower.....if it’s capable of being used manually then the one year free membership is just a huge plus.....

I bought a Proform 750R model PFRW58121; that model looks VERY similar to this model, except is has grey legs instead of yellow. The resistance on the 750R was "jerky" and not smooth. I did not notice any slack in the return, my strokes were around 25. I found IFIT to be a PITA; customer support was also terrible. I returned it yesterday. Tonight I'm ordering a Concept 2.

Fun KZfaq series idea… buy some “vintage” exercise equipment (lots of it exists on eBay for pretty cheap). Review them and compare them with modern equivalents. If some of the equipment you get are worn out, maybe collab with one of the restoration KZfaqrs to bring it back to like-new condition. There are some cool and interesting old rower designs.

@monkeyb1820 3 жыл бұрын

I did a few pulls on one of these and thought the same. It has that 'dead' zone at the start of the pull, which is annoying. For a person in so-so condition, someone that will maybe never do better than like an 8:30 2k, this can possibly work. I think that the faster you pull, the more the slack and dead zone are noticeable and annoying.

Really great review! My girlfriend and were looking at this, your review has really helped! I think we may get this as it sounds like a good starting rower that will get her and I know the machine. Plus I have the iFit membership for a spinning bike and the it becomes a two machines for one iFit membership. If her and I really enjoy it and use it, maybe in a year or two go to a concept 2 or Hydrow, but I think we need the interactive training. Thank you again it was very helpful!

@Zuckerpuppekopf 3 жыл бұрын

The only issue I have with most rowers is that the classic palms downward hand position, although it replicates actual rowing, is biomechanically poor exercise form. That is because there are elbow tendons which are overly stretched in that position and more vulnerable to tendonitis. The safest hand position to avoid overuse injuries would be palms inward/thumbs up, more like for the parallel handles you see on resistance rowers built into cage multi-function weight trainers. Either that or a much wider grip....which no rower has either.

I just purchased it and have used it. Your review convinced me. Great Job, you clearly knew the important points to review. The Big draw for me was the IFIT membership (I didnt have one). For the money it is was like getting a rower for free with my Ifit membership. Having used high end Rowers (Concept 2, Nordic Track, Hydrow, and several others) this obviously is not as smooth as those. I want to be very clear though unless you really know those machines well, the RL is very nice if you just want to get a workout in and row. If it is important to you to impress your friends with having a high end machine that you can show off as furniture then dont get this, but if actually want to save some money and get a great workout with Ifit then this is your machine.

I just bought this rower a few weeks ago and have been on it since. I think it’s great but it’s also my first time rowing. It’s not loud by any stretch. I use ifit with my iPad Pro and do the outdoor workouts. Or I’ll stream it to the TV. He didn’t properly represent what it could be. If I showed you Apple TV from a phone, you say eh, I’m good. Workouts are great, there’s power, endurance, time crunch, hiit and so many others. You get to virtually row in Sweden, Africa etc; the workouts change your resistance automatically so your not on 1 and you can feel the difference between 1 and 13 . You’d never know watching this review. I’m not training for the freaking olympics, so the average user would be happy IMO. If I wanted to pull on the handle as hard as I could to generate slack, I could do that.

I'm pretty sure that's the First Degree Fitness non-commercial (they call it a bunch of names depending on the color; mine is a "Cambridge" 'cause it's blue). I have one, wrote a mini-review of it as a comment on another TT video - had a woman respond to me that she was getting one from Costco. I like mine a lot. It's setup like a Water Rower, so if you pull the bar straight back while you're at the catch, well, you can't - your shins are in the way. But so long as you go legs, glutes, arms, which we're supposed to do, it's good. The seat is fine for my typical workouts (45-60 min). I get a little sore if I go over an hour, but I'm a noob, so no butt calluses :-) Footplate adjustment is a lot like the Concept2. Resistance I paid a bit over a grand for mine, if costco has it for significantly less, I'd say go for it. I picked this over the c2 because it's a lot quieter (and there were no Water Rowers available) The info panel is more basic than the Concept2, but it's got everything I need. (workout time, split time, distance, spm, watts, calories/hour, pulse - but no included chest strap). It also just flips up on its nose when I'm done, fits in a space 20"d x 18"w. Finally, if you're attracted to the adjustable resistance because other family members might use it, too, well, that's what I thought, too. And it didn't happen. I just leave it on max.

@@rodrigocardenas6670 tuve oportunidad de verla con un revendedor de Mty, como opinión te puedo decir que cumple con su función a secas, es decir, en ella se puede ejercitar sin duda, la pregunta sería ver que tipo de uso le quieres dar, si el uso es ocasional digamos de 3 a 4 veces por semana y con remadas tranquilas en la que solo buscas ejercitarte es sin duda un buen equipo para empezar, por otra parte si estas buscando algo de lo siguiente como un equipo de uso rudo que sea duradero, un equipo con el cual puedas tener una mejor y mas completa información del ejercicio a modo de medir tus avances o simplemente estás buscando hacer una inversión duradera y tienes margen de un presupuesto mayor entonces quizás te interesen otras opciones, en mi caso opté por esperar hasta que finalmente pude ordenar una remadora Concept2 en Estados Unidos ya que buscaba un equipo que no requiriera mucho mantenimiento, de uso rudo y en el que pueda integrarlo a mis rutinas de crossfit. Otro aspecto que he visto de esta remadora es que puedes tomar clases en línea pero es bajo suscripción la cual creo que después de 24meses tienes que pagar y es cara así que ese aspecto como puede ser bueno también puede ser malo a la larga aunque no es necesario ni obligatorio la suscripción para usar el equipo. Por cierto ya no la he visto en la página de costco y por mi tierra no llegó a ninguna de las sucursales así que es posible que solo la veas con revendedores los cuales la llegan a vender hasta en 15mil pesos, con ese presupuesto podrías comprar un equipo usado pero de uso rudo, no recuerdo exactamente el costo pero me parece que estaba por debajo de los 10mil en enero para que lo tengas de referencia Saludos

We have one of these rowers, and have enjoyed using it. However, yesterday the Row Bar/Strap broke. The strap portion broke off and the broken side is inside the rower. How do I get to this broken part so that i can replace the Strap? Thanks

I can tell some differences between the resistance levels but I'm a beginner rower. However I do not think their thirst 24 resistance levels I think there's more like 5.

Concept 2 is the best. An erg by rowers for rowers. My machine is 4 years old at 1.4 million meters and going stong!

Do you know which row computers show estimated time of finish? I know concept 2 does, but are there any others you know of? Thanks!

I really enjoyed this video, but had a question before I unbox the ProForm RL. After the first year iFit membership, can I still use the rowing machine if I allow the membership to lapse?

@broadcastdave 3 жыл бұрын

Hold the sync button on the iFit for 15 seconds and it will bypass the membership

I am so glad I found this video. I was just about to buy this as my first rower but I think I am going to pass. Now if only I can figure out which one to buy at this price point that is better.....
