Rowing is one of the great forgotten sports. It was the first and most popular inter-collegiate sport before college football and one of the first in the revised Olympic movement at the turn of the 19th century. It is still seen as the preeminent elitist college sport still, and that needs to change as we widen the opportunities for access to these sports where resources (water and boats) are tough to find a digital experience that can replicate the experience of rowing on the Cam or the Thames or the South China sea from a garage, a front room or bedroom.   Twenty minutes of exercise a day is seen as being able to reduce the overall costs of healthcare in the US by 20%. In a multi trillion-dollar industry, we should be looking for as many variations as possible to keep reducing this cost for society. Rowing exercises 80% of the body’s muscles and is six times more efficient than cycling.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#d
