Hello all, I am playing with an idea of getting rowing machine. On the very few occasions when I had access to a gym, I always enjoyed that machine. Can I please ask you, experienced bodybuilders, what are your thoughts on these machines, are they any good and is there a decent, reasonably priced, machine for home use? I live in a small village in North Yorkshire and winters are long here so the idea of listening to stuff, while rowing away, appeals to me. I will be grateful for any tips and thoughts. Thank you.

Most of you will have seen the frustration over the last couple of months. I have been working behind the scenes the whole time, trying to adapt to every change Skool has made to the platform. That goal has now been dropped, because I have had enough of playing the Skool game for zero return. So from December the sole focus is content, which means classroom information and videos. Fact is, that is what you joined for and I am grateful to @Richard Clark who pointed out what was and is still lacking.😁 I am posting this now so nobody gets caught out, and so you have time to decide what you want to do. On December 2nd, which happens to be my 36th birthday (I'm sure you can work it out) , the way whwido /we-do/ works changes for good. The aim is to clean up the space regardless of member total, protect what we have built, and look after the people who actually show up and take part. Right now there are two kinds of inactive member in here, and both are affected. Group 1: the lurkers You log into Skool, but you never post, never ask a question and never speak in the chat. Some of you just prefer to watch in silence, and up to a point that is fine. The trouble is that a health and performance room only works when people share information, form checks, meals, app logs, questions and progress. There is a darker side too. Some silent accounts have joined purely to scrape routines, lift content and quietly message members behind the scenes. That ends now, so we are keeping real contributors only. Group 2: the ghosts You joined the free section to potentially fix your training, sort your nutrition, rebuild joints, build muscle, or get straight answers on supplements, peptides and medication. Then Skool was new to you and you simply stopped logging in. You have not posted, commented or sent a chat message since this announcement. If you don't start showing up, you'll be removed with everyone else who went quiet. Take this as the nudge to get back on track and back in the room.
