There are two types of rowing machines, namely, water and hydraulic. Both have seats that slide on tracks on which you can push or pull. The water model has a flywheel that you use to resist the drag of the water. This gives you the workout that you need. Hydraulic rowing models are more common and are generally used at home.
These versions have a shock absorber attached to the handles which are used just like oars. Both types of rowing machines give you the workout that you require. You may prefer the water type because using it gives you the feeling of actually rowing through water and you may find that this gives you a pleasant feeling.
Advantages: Rowing machines provide a good workout for all the major muscle groups. You use your legs, back, arms, abdominal muscles as well as the buttocks when you row. Further, rowing is an aerobic as well as a strength training exercise.
