I want to buy a rowing machine to keep myself healthily fit, planning on using it for a wee while after each weight session. I don't know much about them so could anyone recommend a fairly decent one for under £120? Otherwise I'll end up getting a crap one from Argos and giving it away again.

I'm tempted but I'd end up using it to hang myself after 5 minuntes of skipping.

Simply put, you won't get a decent rowing machine for less than a few hundred quid.

Concept 2's are too expensive so I managed to find an Oxford Rower for £200 on ebay which is a pretty good rower.

I've got some skipping ropes too but haven't used them tbh, would love to get into skipping tho, looks the business.

Damn, that guy is amazing.

I've recently taken up skipping, but I got massive shin pain after 3 sessions.

Correct. Concrete floor, but I've got a mat to do them on now.
