Wow. At least I went in this time with lowered expectations. And I only did twenty minutes. *Knowing* that my heart rate wouldn’t get above 120 allowed me to appreciate what there was to appreciate about the rowing machine. It is easy on the joints. It’s more like a brisk walk than a run, but knowing that I was happy to take a brisk walk before my strength training workout. It would make a good warm-up for other activities. It is a change of pace.
Still and all, no. Just… no.
