Re: Rowing, weights, or steroids???
Hi Greg, Female or not, thanks for stepping up to the plate! I can see that the women's forum is not nearly as active as the rest of this site. I see where you're coming from re the short, more intense spurts. What about what I've always heard about low weight, high reps though? Would that be the di...

Rowing, weights, or steroids???
Hi, I’ll try to be as brief as possible. I am 55. In the last two years I’ve put on 10 lbs, all around my middle.

Don’t want aerobic exercise; want to tone/build muscle
Hi, my sister had a heart attack and when they put her into rehab, they told her to row; saying this would work her ‘core’. So I bought a rower for myself. I do not need aerobic exercise; I walk four 15 min. miles per day and have done so for years. I love it, am not giving it up, and do not need to...
