CITYROW: at home fitness

CityRow is great. I was an early adopter so I opted for the yearly discount price. The classes are really good and challenging. Some things are assumed..like how to put your rower in to split time and countdown from meters etc. It wouldn’t hurt to have them mention how to pull that off prior. Perhaps it would be too difficult as not all controllers are the same. Overall the classes were great. I only wish they had an Apple TV app. It seems like it would be well suited for that. I tried to cast it to my Apple TV and it works for a little bit but then stops for no reason. I can only get it to work if I mirror my screen, not sure why the typical casting feature doesn’t work well. Of course when you mirror your screen you see the words casting in the middle of the screen and the overall screen image gets smaller. If they had an Apple TV app I wouldn’t have to deal with all that stuff. Please put this app on Apple TV for the people that can’t attend live. Otherwise its a really great program with great workouts and lots of variety.

Having the in-home rower has been a game changer for achieving my fitness goals. Since getting the app a few months ago, I’ve lost weight, have more energy, and have become stronger. My wife and I have a one-year old son and live in a moderate sized home so we don’t have a lot of extra time for working out and limited square footage for in-home options. City Row Go solves both of those problems for us. The app gives us the option for 15, 20, 30, and 50 minute workouts so I feel like I can find a few minutes to get a good workout in a several times a week. The sleek design of the rower is attractive and has a very small footprint when not in use. I like that the app let’s easily you sort through a lot of workout options and new content comes in every week, so you never get bored. I’m looking forward to seeing what’s next!

I’ve had a rower in my basement collecting dust for years, and I lacked any motivation to get on it. A girlfriend of mine who lives in NYC and takes CITYROW classes in studio there highly recommended that I check out the app... and I am so glad I did! Wow. These classes are really tough workouts that actually go by very quickly thanks to the fun programming style that has you moving on and off the machine. Also, the instructors are really motivating and easy to look at! I will say after awhile I was concerned that I would get bored or plateau taking the same type of classes on repeat but they recently launched just strength classes as well as my particular favorite yoga! I now do a couple of the signature classes a week and at least one yoga or strength class to round out my routine!

After trying multiple workout apps (you name it-I’ve tried it), I stumbled upon CITYROW Go. A friend of mine takes their live classes in New York City after she suffered a low back injury from taking high impact classes. I have used the app for just over a month now and I LOVE it! I am feeling better, have lost weight, and finally am motivated to actually use an app. I usually take class 5x a week and the instructors are extremely motivating! I wish CITYROW would open here in Kansas but for now, this is perfect for my life. Between working and my kids, I have found a way to squeeze in workouts that are challenging and fun and I cannot thank CR enough for this amazing and inspiring app!

I bought the Bluetooth attachment for my waterrower just because of this app. Finally my rower can feel like my peloton (bike). I have taken two classes so far and the instructors and content is great I already am rowing better with their tips. My issues are app based so far. - first I am in decent to good shape and something is off on the intensity measurement for instance when I’m taking it easy at the start of class the instructor says you should be at 50 percent intensity, and I’m actually at around 7. When we are working hard they say go up to 70 my app is ready 14. I tried to get it to 50 percent to see if it will even go that high and I had to move so fast and hard felt like I would break my rower. - next is the distance so far both classes the distance froze at random points of the class and never unfroze , first time with 5 min left next with almost 7 minutes. The rest works good but the intensity is how instructors pave the class and this needs to work, and the distance needs to work for my ocdness. This may seem nitpicky but at 20 plus a month for a membership along with not being able to have multiple profiles (like peloton) is a bit of a rip off.
