I'm not a rower, I do Hyrox and CrossFit. Is this for me?

Yes. In fact, you're exactly who we're looking for.

EXR already knows the rowing world. They partner with World Rowing, British Rowing, Sport Vlaanderen and the Flemish Rowing League, and their testimonials feature Olympians. That layer is covered.

What's missing is the layer underneath: the people who row a thousand metres every week without ever calling themselves rowers. Fitness racers, CrossFitters, functional fitness. To you the rowing machine isn't a sport, it's a station — and that's exactly the perspective this collab is short of.

So you don't need rowing technique, a club, or a palmares on the water. You need to use the machine, and you need to be able to make content with it.

My rowing machine has no Bluetooth. Can I still take part?

No. EXR connects to your rowing machine over Bluetooth, and without that connection the app measures nothing. A Concept2 with PM5, a WaterRower with Bluetooth, a Skillrow or an RP3 all work. An older PM3 or PM4 monitor does not. Put the brand and model in your application and we'll check it.Read the full answer →

I don't have a rowing machine at home, but there's one at my box. Does that count?

Yes, that counts. But EXR runs on your own screen, connected to the machine — and setting that up in a busy box during class hours is harder than at home in your garage. If you can use it outside class or during open gym, no problem. Tell us in your application where the machine is and when you can Read the full answer →

What kind of content can I make for EXR as a sportfluencer?

Anything you actually do on your rowing machine, with the screen in frame — without showing the app, you're just showing a rowing machine. Think: your first session, your regular training with EXR running, a live race, or your setup at home. No product shots, no sponsor talk. And you're allowed to bRead the full answer →

Does EXR have a family plan?

Yes: your main account plus two family members, with full access, as long as everyone lives at the same address. You activate it in your EXR web profile under "manage subscription" (not through an Apple subscription); the price depends on your billing type.

Do I have to pay tax on the free products?

We're not accountants. Roughly: a product or experience from an occasional collab isn't treated as salary. If it becomes structural and high in value, run it past your accountant. We always communicate the retail value up front.Read how the tax picture looks in practice →
