Review: Great rowing machine with good customer service -- A 10-year update - I purchased this comparatively low-cost machine in 8/2015 to use at home because all rowing machines at my gym were the flywheel type with a single pulling T-bar, which provide neither the feeling nor the distribution of the muscle load of sculling. At the time of writing this update, the machine has been working well, without issues after 10 years of systematic use on my part, and a more occasional use by some of my children as they grew up. It is cleaned after each session, and the rolling or friction points of moving parts are lubricated every 1-2 months. It has provided a superb service. A rare find. [1] The BodyTrac 35-1050D, made by Stamina Products, Inc. (MO), is built for users of 250 lb or less. The user manual has clear step-by-step assembly instructions and the machine was easy to assemble. It folds quickly to be stored standing on one end. Once folded, it does not offer comfortable grip points to lift and move it around. -- at 35 lb, it may be a bit too heavy for some people, so adding wheels on the front stabilizer, allowing the folded machine to roll tilted, would be a good design improvement. I wear tennis or jogging shoes when rowing, and have had no issues of slippage from foot-straps (I am 6-ft tall and have a shoe size 9.5). As expected from a device whose resistance is provided by a hydraulic shock absorber, the machine is a bit noisy, and there is some squeaking from various parts until they are warmed up by friction. This, however, does not interfere with listening to music without earpods while rowing. The fluid of hydraulic absorbers heats up a lot with use; do not grab the absorber (located under the rear of the sliding beam) when folding the machine after use, as the cylinder may be very hot. [2] STROKE MECHANICS. Rowing provides a non-weight-bearing exercise for ALL major muscle groups. In this respect, a distinct advantage of the articulated arms of this machine is that --after an initial phase focused on legs and hips to create the power during the stroke, just as in a power clean lift-- you can emphasize the exercise load during the remainder of such a propelling part ('the drive' in sculling) either on the shoulders and chest, or on the mid-back, depending on the form of completing this part of the stroke. One manner is to open the arms when sliding towards the front, and then lower the hands while pulling back with the handles close to one another (they cannot be perfectly aligned since there is not enough separation between them). This focuses the main pulling effort more on the pectorals and shoulders than the back. The other manner is the reverse sequence by sliding forward while keeping both handles low and close together --that is, a motion equivalent to 'the recovery' in sculling, when the blades are brought above water towards the scull's front (bow)-- and then lifting the hands while pulling back with the handles up and apart. This focuses the main effort more on the mid-back than on the chest and shoulders. The possibility of selecting the region of main muscle load is very useful for a chest/back balanced exercise; it can also help to avoid too much muscle development of one of those regions, if so desired. This is something a flywheel with a single pulling T-bar cannot provide. [3] ELEVATING THE DEVICE. I wanted to increase the load on the rower's legs by elevating the rear end of the machine. Instead of using an elevating block or platform, which would add another item to store after a session, I chose to increase the length of the 'leg' of the rear foot, so the sliding-seat beam would form a 10° angle with the horizontal plane (see my figures). To do that, I used two thin-walled metal tubes. One, a container of children pencils, whose outer diameter almost fitted the inner diameter of the rear single tube leg of the machine. The other, a metallic flashlight with rear-end diameter a bit smaller than that of the previous tube, and a flared out front-end diameter fitting the receiving plastic well of the rear foot (see my figure with panel A). These tubes were filled with quick-setting cement in two steps: in the first one, I filled the bigger tube (with a red color in the inset of panel B before it was spray-painted black) to 2/3 of its length; and in the second step, I finished filling this tube and filled the smaller tube with cement, placing the latter inverted into the former. Then, I sealed the narrow gap between the tubes with glue to achieve a moist curing of the cement to provide a higher compressive strength. The cement was left to cure for 3 weeks. I spray-painted black this extension and tightly inserted it into the machine's rear tube leg using turns of reinforced duct tape for shimming. The new leg maintained the original 97° angle with the beam of the sliding seat (see panel B of the figure). To preserve stability, the bottom of the rear foot was shimmed along its rear edge to compensate the 10° angle also formed there. The cement-filled extension withstands my ~190-lb weight without any issue. This machine stands on the floor on three points (two in the front and one in the rear) -- while its lateral stability is inherently reduced by its narrow and elongated shape, its stability is strong as long as the center of gravity of the system is both relatively stable and low. Elevating the single rear foot as I did, however, changes that equilibrium, likely decreasing stability when the sliding seat reaches its rear-most sliding position, as this changes the dynamic center of gravity. If you were to implement the change I made, avoid sudden, large side jerking movements at the end of the stroke that might tip you over, and make sure there are no objects in the vicinity of the rear of the device that could harm you in that case. [4] SEAT CONTOUR. The seat often feels uncomfortable after long rowing sessions. Since rowing ought not be proctodynic, I added to the seat a coccyx pad, whose memory foam I trimmed and carved to a contour approaching that of a good scull seat. In my experience, such a seat has a smooth, front-to-back ridge at the middle, dividing the slightly concave halves of the seat, each of which with a tapered hollow of ~1/5 the total width to accommodate the seat bones (to locate yours, seat on your hands) plus a straight front edge and a back edge having a butterfly's hindwings-like contour to provide tail-bone comfort. It resembles a large sleeping mask with eyeholes. [5] SUPPORT. Another reason for my rating is the quality of the customer service of the company. The machine that was delivered had scratches on some components, so I contacted Stamina's customer service and emailed them pictures of the defects. They quickly replaced the affected parts at no cost, including the entire center beam and rowing arms, in less than two weeks. A good customer service is paramount for online purchases. ~~
Review: A Great Workout at a Great Price - I've had this rower for over six months and use it several times a week. I bought it because I was a big fan of the hydro-rowers at the gym but can't afford the price tag nor the space for one of the 'fancier' machines that rowing snobs tout like the Concept 2. I chose this one because it uses more of a rowing motion rather than the typical pulling one you get on hydro rowers. The assembly was a little tricky but once i figured it out, was super easy , it just took a little patience. Once it was up and running, it took a little while to figure out which level to start at to give me a good workout but not feel like Sisyphus trying to push a rock up a hill. I have to say, for the price, this machine is great. I've never had any issues with the pedals nor the straps as I've read on other reviews. I just make sure I velcro my feet tight and am able to push with my legs with no issues. I did have an issue with one of the bolts coming out but that was my fault for not tightening it enough. I've also had to change the batteries in the display console once which was fine except I didn't realize I needed to until I was strapped in and ready to start rowing. It's great that you can reset each workout down to zero when you start but the machine maintains a running count of strokes up to 10K and then it resets. I bought this machine because I don't like going to the gym but I love rowing for exercise. This allows me to have the best of both worlds- getting to work out but doing so in the comfort of my own home. I highly recommend it if you're looking for a way to get a good full-body workout at your own pace but don't have the room/finances to get one of the fancier rowers. One piece of advice- invest in workout gloves; I tend to grip hard and found myself developing blisters under my middle finger but gloves solved that issue nicely.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Any owners have this for a longer period of tiem and can attest to the quality (still work)?  Thanks**
A: I have it since 2015, its September 2018 and still works like a charm. I have changed the batteries two times already. One of the nuts in the arms gets loose sometimes but it easily can be tightened again. My only gripe with it as many other users have pointed is the foot rest pedals. They are too slippery unless you have shoes with soles that gripe well. With some anti skid tape that is used in stairs and ramps to avoid slipping it can be solved.

**Q: Do u guys feel that this machine helps to really work out? I'm interested in working out with it for 30 minutes per day....**
A: It's my favorite machine (bike, stepper, treadmill).  Works legs and upper body, cardio & pulmonary.  I watch movies and row for an hour pretty regularly.  1000-2000 strokes.  The adjustable tension/hydraulic cylinder is great.  I increase resistance as a limber up.  I'm 63, had open heart surgery in October, like to cycle c. 30 miles and am in decent shape.  But this is great!

**Q: what is the weight limit for machine**
A: The stated weight limit of 250 pounds will allow a lot of abuse!  I think the rower could safely be used by people above 250 pounds. If above 250 lb. you should be willing to risk rejection of warranty claims if anything breaks. The unit has heavy duty welds on all major stress points with observed weakness of some plastic components. If your weight is above 350 pounds and your a "power" (very muscular) rower please find another machine.

**Q: Is the machine noisy**
A: No. There is a low sound of the rollers along the track, and after 10,000+ strokes the main bushings will wear and will cause a dull "clunk". A call to customer service got me replacement bushings and corrected that. So, at it's worst ,the machine is not noisy.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stamina Body Trac Glider 1050 Rowing Machine
*by E***O on March 28, 2011*

I recently purchased the Stamina Trac Glider 1050 Rowing Machine for both myself and my wife. I have to say for the money it is definately worth the purchase. I have never used a rowing machine and the closest thing I have ever done similar to rowing is when I went Kayaking in the Gulf of Mexico. Although that trip was much more enjoyable the 1050 has been great to me as well as my wife. It was easy to put together, all material and tools were available and it took about 10 to 15 minutes to put together. I had read quit a few reviews of this product before my purchase so I knew some of the problems as well as benefits that a few people spoke about. I can only find one fault with this piece of equipment and that would be the foot pedals and the Velcro Straps to hold your feet in place while performing the exercise. The foot pedals are definately big enough for almost any foot size (mine are 11) but I think the manufacturer could have done a better job of construction. Maybe a larger lip on the heel of the pedal would help to hold your foot in place but the straps leave a lot to be desired. First I tried it wearing my Sketchers and the straps kept coming off. Next I tried it wearing just sox and that was too slippery so believe it or not I tried it with my house slippers and that worked a whole lot better but still not good enough for me. The best way I found to be able to sustain movement during the exercise and keep my feet in place without the Velcro coming apart was to do it "BAREFOOT". Not once did the straps come loose while exercising. Other than that the machine was exactly what we were looking for. As for the stride, I am 5'10" and my wife is 5'5" and it didn't seem to bother either one of us although it burned the crap out of our legs only because we were not used to doing that type of exercise. A few people in previous reviews complained that when they were performing the rowing motion the stride with your butt going back and foreth their feet kept coming out of the pedals. We found that if you adjust your stride you shouldn't have a problem. The Rowing Machine has had a big impact on my Legs, Shoulders and Arms. We first started the setting at 1, then went to 3 and now we are on 5 and building. The higher the number the harder it is on the rowing motion and really doesn't affect your legs at all. We use this piece of equipment in conjunction with a Treadmill, Ab Glider, Ab Wheel and still do Push Ups. Im nearly 60 and my wife is 55, we both were over weight.....me at 210 lbs and the wife at 178. Along with eating right which we both do since this past September and using these pieces of exercise equipment I am now at 188lbs and the wife has had the most benefit, she's at 137 lbs. The combination of exercise and eating right have helped both of us get off taking Cholesterol Medicine, it has helped lower Cholesterol and Trigliserides which made our Family Doctor very happy. So I will suffice it to say that the Rowing Machine has been a great help to both my wife and I. I would definately recommend this exercise equipment to anyone. I hope this helps when you consider purchasing the Stamina Trac Glider!
