One of my favorite machines at the gym is the rower. Not only does it workout your entire body, but it's great at torching calories while being easy on your knees. As part of its January sales, Walmart is offering a top-rated rowing machine at a fraction of its regular price.
For a limited time, you can get the Echelon Rower for just $297 at Walmart. That's $300 off and the same low price we saw for this machine during Black Friday/Cyber Monday.
Rowing is one of the best cardio workouts you can perform. Studies have shown that rowing works 85% of the muscles in your body from your back to your legs. As a result, rowing can burn fat while also helping you build muscle. (Check out our guide to how to lose weight using a rowing machine).
The Echelon Rower is great because it offers 32 levels of magnetic resistance, which means you can program a harder workout as you get stronger. It has an ergonomic sliding seat that helps support proper hip and spine alignment. There's also a built-in device holder where you can accommodate your smartphone or tablet as you workout.
We also like that it comes with a 30-day trial of Echelon Premier Membership. The app gives you access to 40+ daily live and 15,000+ on-demand connected fitness classes led by Echelon instructors. The classes include rowing workouts, HIIT, kickboxing, yoga, strength training, and more. (One membership allows up to five users).
