The manual adjusting knob allows for increases or decreases in the level of resistance.
The extra-long slide rail allows for a full-range body workout. In addition to the long rail, this rower comes with a fully padded seat, and an LCD console screen that displays basic needed data to monitor time rowed, strokes, and estimated calories used. Quality goes into the heavy-duty steel fame to go the distance with basic or advanced training levels. A good product for the budget.
