Would these work well for indoor rowing?

yes, for the only thing don't work really good is with pull ups, but I haven't found something that works for pull ups

I presume they would be good for indoor usage. they are regular speakers in a weatherproof casing.

Yes. However I use a bar previously purchased for a rowing exercise. The one that came with the set was not as comfortable though it did work.

Sure, they'd be just fine as long as you weren't expecting a lot of bass at higher volume. So for inside a living room they'd rock. In a bar or bigger meeting room setting, they could be fine - but don't expect thumping bass.

I can't answer your question, my rower is on a tile floor. I would like to recommend an excellent book about rowing that I found."Row Daily, Breath deeper, Live better, a guide to moderate exercise by D.P.Ordway........ HAPPY ROWING.

Most definitely, when I rowed in college we had a 6'8" guy and he had a little extra room. Rowing is generally setup for tall guys and girls.

I think these will work. They are light with a flexible and relatively thin sole. Tai chi is my intended use, but I've only had a chance to use them briefly for that since I bought them.

I use them in the gym and on the stair climber machine. They are fine. Not sure about running but would think they would work ok.

Carolina, I would not recommend to you to buy this particular rowing machine. It is poorly made, parts fall out and it makes a lot of horrible noise. I had a number of rowing machines, this one is by far the worst...It lasted me about 3 months. The customer service is bad as well. If you want an outrigger, look into Kettler or Stamnia.

I have not used them while working out. My preference would be for something sweatproof - not only waterproof but something that can handle salts and oils which can be corrosive. The weight and bulk is probably a matter of comfort. For normal weight-lifting, I doubt there would be much of an issue. For rowing, it may depend on your cadence. I think the weight of the Zik would cause a problem with momentum changes in the back and forth motion.

got a pair, good oars for a small boat my size. make sure they are long enough for the beam of your boat.

I adore my machine. I bought a book on proper posture and form, which was helpful. The book stated that moderate rowing is a 3. I am pretty fit and find myself very comfortable at 4.5 for 5000 meters. I am 46. If I do intervals then usually a 4. If I power row, all in, a 5. Posture and breathing are key. Each person is different, though. My 38 year old husband find a 4.5 pretty challenging for 60 minutes.

Sri, I won't recommend that. They are tight enough but are not meant for active work out.

Yes. I've actually used them alot for pullups and deadlifts and they work great.

I wouldn't. They are not what I would call "industrial strength". My sewing chair has scratched mine to heck and it's just a simple rolling chair. They are great looking and a great price, but I'd go for a little higher quality for excercise equipment. Hope this helps!

I think they would work. They are a little squishy, but they would probably be OK unless you're looking for something that's very firm.

you could use them for a home gym/cardio. They're pretty thick/soft. They look like something that would be in a kids room, so as long as you're ok with that.
