The Adjustable Resistance (AR) Tank, developed and patented by First Degree Fit-
ness, offers a true multi-level experience. Water is moved between the "storage"
and "active" chambers of the AR Tank. Your new Rowing Ergometer can adapt at
the turn of a dial to the resistance preferred by each user in the home environment.
Adjustable Resistance (AR) Tank
Getting Started
To achieve minimum resistance, select "MIN" on the tank adjuster. It takes 10
strokes to fill the central (storage) tank, leaving a minimal amount of water in the
outer (active) tank. This process is always required if minimum resistance is desired.
Row hard at a steady pace (20 to 25 strokes per minute [SPM]) and put some effort
into the stroke, ensuring that good form is maintained. You can make adjustments to
the resistance level while you row. Your Rowing Ergometer will adapt almost instant-
ly to increases in resistance but will take up to 10 strokes to reduce the effort re-
quired, as the central (storage) tank fills up.
Developing Your Routine
Once you have found a level that gives you the exercise required, changes can be
made to SPM and to stroke intensity to further vary your energy input. Interval
training is used by most Fluid Rowers, where a period of low intensity is combined
with short intervals of high intensity. Your FDF Rowing Ergometer allows for chang-
es 'on the fly', to achieve multi-level resistance profiles during a single workout. For

amount of water to reach the fly-
wheel for heaviest resistance
