Previously had a smart rower with magnetic resistance and found I plateaued with it and did not enjoying rowing. Got the Ergatta with hopes of recharging my workout and it has. Enjoy the water resistance and screen provides great motivation and feedback.
Well the gamification is exactly what I was hoping for and the type of exercise this provides is the perfect mix of cardio and "Weight lifting".
The gamification imo works well. Keeps you going without realizing the effort you're putting in.
