Discover the magic of rowing online
Wondering how it works?
If you’ve never rowed online with other gym locations, you’re in for a treat. It’s fun, engaging, and totally motivating!
Here's how it works:
- You join the Oarbits Online Rowing Club - it's free and you can join your gym online directly from RowPro.
- You look in the Oarbits Session List and join an Online Rowing session that suits you. If you don't see one you want, just create one yourself and arrange with other gym locations to join.
- A few minutes before your Online Rowing session is due to start, you connect RowPro to your Indoor Rowers with your PC connected to the Internet. Any type of Internet connection will do - DSL, Cable, Wireless, Satellite, 3G or even just Dial-up.
- With a few easy clicks you go online and check in to your Online Rowing session. Other gyms check in, you 'talk' to each other via the built-in RowPro Chat, and when you're all ready to go, one of you clicks Start to start the session.
- As you row, you see the boats from other gym locations in the lanes beside your gym's boat. Up to 16 boats can participate in each Online Rowing session.
- After the session you chat with the other gyms again until it's time to go.
The power of rowing online
Rowing online transforms gym rowing from an exercise activity to an inter-gym team competition and a national / international sport that fosters long-term member interest.
Rowing online makes it practical for you to arrange competitions between members at different gym locations without even having to think about travel.
That's the power of rowing online - fun, motivation and involvement for members, and great opportunity for trainers and administrators to expand their contact and interaction with other gym locations. Just try it. You'll love it.
