Wife said she'd do the rowing thing, but so far she hasn't even tried. She did mention it might boring so I'm thinking of moving the rower and putting my extra TV in front of it so she can just absentmindedly row away to a TV show.

Are you using the Concept2 or some other rower? I've been loving the waterrower because of how quiet it is. All these other resistance or fan rowers are so damn loud.
I got the $1600 Echelon by mistake from Amazon. I ordered the cheapo one without the monitor, but I ended up with the good one. they admitted they advertised the wrong model number beside the picture in their ad, so I got to keep it.

and as you can see, I installed a secondary monitor to play YouTube video of rowers, instead of paying Echelon $50 a month for their shitty low rez vids
