First time mom and WaterRower Owner

"Working out has always been important to me. While I was pregnant with my first child, I knew that with an infant, I’d be hard pressed to find time and energy to find time for fitness. Therefore, I decided to buy my first piece of home exercise equipment and after some research, I decided on a WaterRower. The WaterRower turned out to be the perfect piece of exercise equipment for a stay-at-home mom with an infant! I don’t have much time to work out, so the fact that I can work both my upper and lower body, and get in both strengthening and cardio vascular exercise, are great bonuses. And I can get a good workout in just 20 minutes. Additionally, the only sound that comes out of the WaterRower is the gentle, calming sound of water swishing. In fact, it sounds just like the ocean wave sound machine I use to help my son to sleep. So, not only does the WaterRower not bother my baby, but he actually is soothed by the sound! One day, when my son was particularly fussy, I set him in his infant chair next to the WaterRower and rowed; the sound of the water actually lulled him to sleep! Finally, since the space in my house is increasingly taken up by baby gear, I appreciate that the WaterRower folds up so compactly. I’m thankful that the WaterRower has helped me stay in shape, feel good about myself, and carve out some 'me' time while still being attentive to by baby."
