Virtual Reality Rowing on a Concept2 rower with Holofit 2021

This is an older look at Holofit. For the 2022 version, watch: https://youtu.be/lUua-DmaARM

I take to the Virtual Reality river on my Concept 2 to test out the Holofit Rowing software on my Quest 2 VR headset.

I've been intrigued by VR rowing for a while. And I've replied to a few messages from the Holofit people with an air of negativity when it came to how I thought it would be (especially the thought of rowing with the weight of the headset).

This video review is the very first time I use the software - so although not a thorough exploration of the software (I'm only using the limited demo version) it will hopefully let you see whether it's for you or not.

I go through an "Explore" row for a minute, then I do a 500m race, and finally a quick "Cardio" plan workout while I try to workout how the software works, and talk about the good things and not so good things about it.

This video is a true "First Look" at this game. I had to pick up one shot afterwards, when I connected to the PM5 - which is why you'll see it listed on the left hand side of the screen. Just wanted to be honest, in cases someone called me out on this!

I know there is more to the software to be explored - but without the full version to test out - I'll leave it at this.

I did not receive anything for doing this review. I paid full whack for the Quest 2 headset (which is awesome!!) and only used the demo of Holofit. The people at Holodia/Holofit have not paid for this in any way at all. (Maybe they'll give me a free version for a follow up video?) Just wanted to be clear about that too.

If you've enjoyed this video, do take a look around the Workouts I have on offer here. All for free, RowAlong workouts to keep you focussed and entertained in a less VR environment!! 🔴 DISCLAIMER 🔴
