allow fingertip control of adjustment from "Feather light" to "Olympic sprint".
This patented Fluid Technology is at the heart of every piece of First Degree Fitness
equipment, delivering silky smooth resistance to the user's effort and instantaneous

Fluid Rower E-520
Professional Health Club Rower
Our High-End Rower for Professional Health Clubs
The E-520 Fluid Rower is the epitome of all indoor rowers, bar none. It represents the
highest quality indoor rowing experience and is the top of an already hard to beat line of
fluid rowers from First Degree Fitness. It offers an industry-best on-water rowing
emulation with a natural catch and resistance through the stroke along with an unprecedented
20 levels of patented variable resistance. Many clubs or wellness centers use it as their key
go to equipment when trying to demonstrate innovation in fitness or a real sensitivity to user
needs. Plus, it has unmatched durability!
Status quo solutions do not engage and sustain the attention of a sedentary population.
Nor do many equipment options offer the flexibility to engage a person regardless of sex,
size, age, fitness level (including rehab) and sustain that engagement over time as well as
the E-520 does. As a club owner or wellness center your loyalty to members is demonstrated
when you add innovation, comfort, convenience and results, like those delivered by the
E-520, to your mix.

Rowing is a great fitness activity for all ages and body types. It is one of the
best forms of total body aerobic exercise, with all major muscle groups called
into full use. Interestingly, expert opinion is that only swimming and cross-country
skiing come into the same league.
It is also highly meditative, with the hypnotic repetition of simple body
movements. Devotees of rowing view its cyclic motion as good for their
feeling of "karma", and the steady rotation of water on Fluid Rower
machines helps accentuate this sense of well-being.
WHY FLUID TECHNOLOGY?
It was because our design team knew and understood the unique resistance properties
of water that they believed we could use these at the centre of a superior new product
range for the fitness industry. Our patented Fluid Technology water resistance
system was designed to offer 20 levels of resistance, from feather light to Olympic sprint,
all at the touch of a lever. This system, which has always been subject to
continuous improvement, is at the core of our original three models. During 2006 we
responded to market demands with the release of our two new compact rowers,
which have a modified 16 level resistance system, using gearing to still give a fully
effective range.
WHY ROWING?
With three of our five products being rowers, it has been asked whether we are
just a rowing machine company. Well, we consider that we are first and foremost
a fitness equipment company, but we know and understand the benefits of rowing
as the best total body aerobic exercise available, and very purposefully chose to
make a rower our flagship product. We even employ a professional rowing coach as
an advisor on product development and applications. Thats how seriously committed
we are to ensuring our customers get the very best out of their First Degree Fitness
equipment.
