Rowing's great for cardio, just set the damper between 3 and 4 (resisitance of water) and keep your stroke rating between 20-26 at 2:00 min per 500 meters....
When I was bulking last year I made it mandatory to row. As it helped develop my back muscle and is a great alternative cardio for low impact. I didn't loose any muscle mass from use and actually gained from the continually movement. Slam down a protein shake 30mins for you do any cardio and will help with muscle atrophy issues imo.
When I die I want to be called a friend or family member by everyone I came into contact with!!!
I row EOD for approx 45 minutes and then go to my spinning session with a bunch of insane women.I have plenty of mass-OD
Rowed for 15 mins today. Actually really liked it. Looked really pumped after
I vary it greatly-more HIIT or just pure interval.Neo has great suggestions-I have a lil difficulty reading the monitor due to vision.I play more with my heart rate and adjust from that point.But-I don't really feel that cardio makes a guy lose mass. Or-at least for me as I am a beast lol-Luck-OD

Hell yeah!
I rowed in highschool and college, and while I super lanky at the time (6'4 190#), I feel I developed the foundation of my lat spread from this. I do super sets with wide gip pulls ups to bent over rows and finally pullovers. This has allways givin good results, but adding in the rower allways seems to bring out that v-taper just a little bit further.
