Let's be honest: finding a home workout solution for the whole family is a BIG ask. With two energetic teen boys, an elementary school daughter, and a health-conscious husband, finding a fitness routine that works for everyone has always seemed impossible.
So, when I first came across the Aviron Strong Rower, I'll admit, I was skeptical. Could one single-user machine in the corner of our living room really make workouts fun and easy for the whole family? Spoiler alert: it did. Here’s how:
Addictive Gameplay That Energizes Our Workouts
Forget whatever idea you have about rowing machines. The Aviron Strong is a portal to a world of addictive, family-friendly workout games that have us looking forward to exercise. Our living room has become a bona fide sports arena!
Whether it's racing against each other to put out more fires (there’s actually a game where you’re a fire truck blasting water! 🚒💦🔥), topping the leaderboards, or unlocking more abilities, the excitement is real. Every week, we compare our stats from when we used it on our own and celebrate our wins.
Some games even allow you to customize your avatar and background, which the kids really love. Even my youngest, who has very picky tastes in her entertainment, asks, "When's it my turn to row?"
Built For Every Body
Every detail of the Aviron Strong suggests it’s built to support not just any user, but every user. From my baby girl who’s barely 4 feet tall, to my husband who is 6’3”, this machine is astonishingly adaptable. With an industry-first foot width adjustment, everyone can set it up for their comfort. And the ergonomic, wide seat? A blessing for curvy girls everywhere!
(Oh, and as someone who doesn’t understand the folks who “glisten” after their workouts — I get sweaty, y’all! — the strategically placed gills that fan you with each stroke are genius.)
Personalized Workouts That Fit Our Hectic Schedule
Instead of shuffling all of my work and errands around to fit an in-person workout class, I can just use my Aviron Strong for a more convenient workout. With thousands of workouts ranging from high-intensity games to serene rows, there's something for everyone’s tastes.
The kids, who are usually glued to video games, each have their own favorite workouts — my eldest likes the on-demand classes, my middle enjoys the racing games, and my youngest loves blasting bugs out of the sky.
I've found my groove with the guided classes that keep me motivated and the quiet sunset row that helps me decompress after work. Meanwhile, my husband dives into the “Pros vs Joes” challenges with an enthusiasm I haven’t seen in years. Competing against professional athletes makes him work even harder!
I also love that the different workout lengths range from 3 to 45 minutes. As a Mom-preneur, sometimes all I have time for is an “exercise snack” so those shorter workouts help me squeeze in my daily exercise.
The Economics of Exercising at Home
Initially, $2,199 might sound steep, but it breaks down to a minimum of $45 a month for a tool my entire family uses almost daily. Most gym memberships cost that much for just one person and can’t even compare to Aviron’s convenience and flexibility.
Plus, the $29 monthly membership covers unlimited profiles. This means we can all track our workouts, achievements, and progress individually. It’s like having a personal trainer for each of us, without the hefty price tag!
You can also share your stats with your fam or your friends; we’ve found the built-in accountability is a great motivating factor. My middle son, who thrives on personal milestones, has been particularly motivated to see his stats (and muscles) grow! 💪
A Family Fitness Game-Changer
The Aviron Strong Rower has changed how we view exercising at home. We’re not just working out; we’re embarking on adventures, pushing our limits, and most importantly, improving our health together. My 10-year-old summed it up perfectly, saying, "It's like we're all on the same team!"
So, from this busy mom’s heart to yours, I truly believe investing in an Aviron Strong is more than just buying a rower—it’s setting the stage for a healthier, happier family. And isn’t that worth every penny?
