If you have not already you should try rowing. When you get some speed on water it feels really good.

- slaughtr 2y agoIf you have proper rowing form your arms are almost entirely used just for holding on. The majority of your power comes from legs and core. Not a professional rower, just looked into form when I was using a rowing machine.
- arkh 2y agoAs mentioned you are wrong on this: rowing is mostly legs, some core muscle and then a little arm. As you don't have your full weight on your knees it is a good way to get started on working your legs when you're overweight.
- genericspammer 2y agoAs someone who rows an actual boat once or twice almost every other summer I just want to say that rowing is mostly upper body and arms, with little to no legwork.
- arkh 2y agoI guess we're not thinking of the same thing when writing about rowing. I'm thinking of this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rowing_(sport)#/media/File:Aviron_2015_-_World_Championships_-_11.JPG https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rowing_(sport)#/media/File:Avi... and if you do little legwork you're doing it wrong.
