Indoor rowing machines are typically designed to resemble watercraft rowing for a total body strength and conditioning workout. The DP 6550 rowing machine, however, combines the typical rowing machine with a Pilates machine trainer. With the added functions and features, the DP 6550 rowing machine becomes a compact, foldable complete home fitness gym.
Benefits
Indoor rowing machines provide a variety of health and fitness benefits, but adding the versatility of a rowing machine and compact home gym provides additional benefits to the DP 6550 rowing machine. The rowing machine provides a total body strength and conditioning workout while the extra Pilates functions offer flexibility, balance and core strengthening exercises. Using the cable pull guidance, you can perform a variety of strength training exercises such as biceps curls, leg stretches, back and abdominal exercises.
Resistance
The DP 6550 rowing machine features a magnetic flywheel system that provides a natural, harmonic movement along with variable resistance. You can manually adjust the DP 6550 to eight different resistance levels to adjust the workout intensity to your personal fitness level and goals. The ball-bearing roller seat allows you to move through a constant range of motion while the ball-bearing joints and Poly-V-drive belt provide a quiet workout.
Display
Using the LCD computer display on the DP 6550, you can instantly track your workout performance. The LCD displays speed, distance, time, stroke frequency and calories burned. Attaching the earclip heart rate monitor also displays your pulse rate and heart rate information on the LCD. If you want to see every display, you can set the LCD to "scan" mode where it rotates through features such as speed, distance and time.

The size and design features on the DP 6550 rowing machine make it ideal for a home fitness gym. The DP 6550 measures about 75 in. long, 19 in. deep and 27 in. high but can be folded into a vertical space-saving position measuring about 33 in. long, 23 in. deep and 55 in. high.
