Why should you consider buying a vertical water rowing machine?

As noted earlier, the traditional design for water rowers has been horizontal tanks. It’s only in newer models that the angle of the water tank is adjusted. Let’s find out why.

What is rowing resistance?

A horizontal rowing water tank provides the most natural rowing motion. This is the natural motion you would get if you were actually rowing outdoors in a boat.

However, with a vertical water rowing tank like in the ETONSUNNY water rowing machine, which is a less common design, rowing is considerably more difficult due to the addition of gravity to the equation. On the other hand, with a horizontal water tank, you’re simply displacing water by fighting against its natural thickness.

An angled water tank also gets gravity involved and the steeper the angle – 60 degrees, 75 degrees, etc. – the more gravity gets involved, pushing the water downward.

Additional resistance force: Vertical or angled water tank

When referring to something quite difficult some people use the expression “just like pushing water uphill”. There is a very good reason for this: water is affected by gravity, just like everything else.

Water follows the path of least resistance; downwards. Therefore, reversing that direction by making it flow in an upward direction means you have to fight water’s natural viscosity as well as gravity. As a result, you have to work harder to spin the paddles.

The idea is actually quite simple; rowing in a vertical or angled water tank is significantly more difficult due to the impact of gravity. Therefore, for anyone who wants to push their workout sessions a notch higher, a vertical tank is definitely a good thing!

Water Rower V’s Concept 2 – What’s the Difference?

The bottom line

As a rower, it is essential to conduct in-depth research in order to understand how the machines you are using work.

Now that you understand the key differences between horizontal vs. vertical water rowing tanks, you can consider whether you want to switch up your rower. This way, you can achieve a considerably higher difficulty level in order to get a better workout and better fitness results.

Keep in mind that a horizontal water rowing tank is usually all most people need. However, if you are in the market for something different and deciding which rower model to buy, the ETONSUNNY Water Rowing Machine, Vertical Tank Water Rower Machine with Bluetooth Fitness APP is definitely something to consider.
