"Anyone can do this class, I'm in my 50's and it's never too late to get the body you want. I feel like I'm in better shape now than when I was in my 20's."
K. Allison
"I wanted to look great in my wedding dress so I asked a friend that dropped serious weight and she just does Rowbics. In 2 months, I dropped 10 stubborn pounds that I've been trying to say goodbye to for years. It works, it really works!"
A. Nardi
"Rowbics is perfect for my schedule. Just a few times a week keeps me in the best shape."

What is Rowbics™?
Feel the motion as it motivates each part of you – and experience one of the most exhilarating workouts available. You’ll breathe deeper, sleep better and enjoy a clear mind and sound body. Rowbics™ combines the best of rowing, the highest aerobic fitness standards and advanced interactive technology to deliver our QuadCore Conditioning™ system, a completely balanced series of isometric and traditional rowing movements that strengthen your body’s four major systems:
Your upper- and lower-abdominal and back muscles are engaged throughout each stroke and the entire Rowbics™ routine. The rowing stroke uses your major leg muscles, including the calves, thighs, hamstrings, buttocks and hips, to control the power and speed of the stroke. When pulling the handle in to “Finish” the stroke, you’re strengthening and toning the shoulders, back and arms. Your cardiovascular system gets stronger and healthier as your body works to deliver oxygen to the wide range of muscles used in the rowing stroke.
Core importance.
The core holds your body upright and tall – and every movement you make originates in the core. By building a strong core, you’ll improve overall strength, enjoy better posture and have more total body stability and flexibility. With every single rowing stroke, you strengthen your core. And, by creating a stable, strong base for those muscles, you can minimize back pain caused by muscle imbalances and reduce risk of injury.
