Rowing machines are awesome. At lower resistances, it’s a great cardio alternative to jogging without stressing out your knees. At higher resistances, it can develop the lower body, core, and upper body all at the same time. The YOSUDA is a magnetic rowing machine. This is generally considered the best type of rower for home gyms because it’s quiet, maintenance-free, and easy to adjust on the fly. It offers up to 72 pounds of magnetic resistance adjustable across 16 levels. The YOSUDA rower is also pretty compact when folded up and can be moved pretty easily since it has roller wheels.

A workout bench isn’t a complicated piece of equipment. This particular bench comes mostly pre-assembled and the manufacturer claims that you can start lifting “within 3 minutes of opening the box”. Just because it’s simple doesn’t mean you’re giving up on adjustability. The bench offers eight back adjustment angles to accomodate a variety of incline, decline, and flat bench exercises. The bench is sturdily built with most structural components made out of metal, rated for a maximum total weight capacity of 660 pounds. The PU leather upholstery is also easy to clean.
