What does water resistance mean on the WRX500?

Water resistance is the key principle that gives the WRX500 rowing machine an especially realistic feel, similar to rowing on real water. Instead of mechanical or magnetic resistance, it uses a water tank with 16 specially shaped turbine blades that spin through the water with every rowing stroke. The harder and faster you pull, the greater the resistance. This means your workout automatically adapts to your intensity and fitness level, with no manual adjustment needed.

Is the WRX500 compatible with the Sportstech Live app?

Yes, the WRX500 is Bluetooth-compatible and can be connected to the Sportstech Live app. The app is available for Android and iOS and lets you enjoy interactive, data-driven workouts.

Can I store the WRX500 upright without draining the water?
