“5k everyday.” 🚣♀️
One year ago, Karin discovered EXR while looking for a way to stay consistent with indoor rowing from home.
What started as a simple way to exercise became something much bigger:
🌍 immersive virtual worlds
🏆 motivating challenges
💙 a supportive community
Through EXR and the Discord community, rowing stopped feeling lonely and became something she genuinely looks forward to every day.
“EXR has made exercising fun in a way I’ve never experienced before.”
Stories like Karin’s are exactly why we build EXR.

“Thousands of kilometers later… still motivated.” 🚣♂️
Torsten (47, Germany) has been rowing for years and EXR keeps him coming back.
From virtual laps on the Thames and Lake Bled to a community that pushes, supports and entertains, EXR turned a motivational dip into long-term consistency.
After leaving another platform, he found something different here:
▪️A European product
▪️With a truly international community
▪️Add real coaching, constant improvements, and feedback that actually gets implemented…
And in his words:
“A rower and EXR is the best physical and mental value for money.”
