Nithus even goes so far as to allow the reader a look into his own personal experiences not only with indoor rowing, but also on the water. A unique, unprecedented and oftentimes punchy look at Perfection In Exercise. Covered topics include rowing's superiority as a cardiovascular exercise, the role of strength endurance in exercise, the economics of indoor rowing, machine reviews, fitness regimens, competition strategies, adaptiv
