is a simple rowing machine. Not the HUGE ones, just one with a small footprint and a way to increase the hydraulic tension so that you can advance in time. It's even good for seniors. It's aerobic and helps muscles without putting pressure on joints (I have an injured foot).

I do it every day. 50 rows at a time until I feel up to building up to more.
