The rowing ergometer reinvented.

Meet the STEPR Performance Rower XL.

The STEPR Row Erg with VPR™ takes the classic rowing ergometer further, designed for smooth, natural biomechanics and performance at the highest level. A lower footplate position and a boat-like rowing feel make every stroke longer and every pull more efficient.

VPR™ resistance moves rowing training from static to dynamic. Resistance adapts in real time to your effort, speed and training goal. From overspeed technique work to heavy strength intervals – it all comes together in one machine.

Distinctive features

• Adaptive VPR™ air resistance with the feel of 100+ gears for maximum control
• Boat-inspired ergonomics for better posture, a longer stroke and greater efficiency
• Exceptionally low and high resistance range for technique, speed and strength work
• High load capacity for intensive strength endurance training
• Industry-standard backlit console showing all your key data clearly on one screen
• Suitable for every level, from beginner to professional athlete
• Heavy-duty commercial build quality with a matching commercial warranty
• Row Erg 2.0, the new standard in performance rowing
