Yesoul R1M PLUS Home Rowing Machine: A Full-Body Fitness Solution Designed for Men's Health and Everyday Life
HONG KONG, June 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Coinciding with Men's Health Month, Yesoul promotes accessible home fitness tailored for today's busy men—from young professionals to active retirees.
Prioritizing Men's Health: Why It Matters More Than Ever
June is recognized globally as Men's Health Month—a time dedicated to raising awareness about the physical and mental health challenges men face throughout their lives. From young professionals navigating demanding careers to fathers juggling family and work, and older men seeking longevity and vitality, men's wellness is a multifaceted issue that deserves year-round attention.
Despite increasing public health campaigns, studies consistently show that men are less likely than women to seek medical advice, maintain regular fitness routines, or engage in preventive care. Factors such as time constraints, work-related stress, and cultural stigmas around masculinity contribute to rising rates of chronic illness, cardiovascular conditions, and mental health struggles.
That's why accessible, tech-enhanced home fitness equipment—like the Yesoul R1 M PLUS Rowing Machine—is more essential than ever. Compact, versatile, and designed with real-life convenience in mind, the R1 M PLUS empowers men across all life stages to take control of their health, right from the comfort of their homes.
The Yesoul R1 M PLUS: A Modern Rowing Machine Built for Real Life
More than just a piece of exercise equipment, the R1 M PLUS is a wellness ally engineered for versatility, comfort, and intelligent fitness. With design elements tailored to support modern lifestyles, this machine helps eliminate common workout barriers, like time, space, and noise.
Foldable Design That Fits Any Space
One of the R1 M PLUS's standout features is its space-saving foldability. Whether you're in a city apartment, home office, or shared living area, its vertical-folding rail reduces the footprint by over 50%. Paired with smooth transport wheels, it's easy to roll the machine away when not in use—making it ideal for men with limited space or irregular routines.
Full-Body, Low-Impact Workouts for All Fitness Levels
Rowing is widely considered one of the most efficient full-body workouts, engaging over 80% of major muscle groups—legs, core, back, and arms—while being gentle on the joints. It's an ideal form of exercise for:
Busy professionals looking to build stamina and reduce stress
Dads fitting in workouts between family responsibilities
Middle-aged men maintaining muscle tone and metabolic health
Seniors who want a joint-friendly cardiovascular activity
Silent Magnetic Resistance with 100 Intensity Levels
The R1 M PLUS features a custom magnetic resistance system that delivers whisper-quiet operation with 100 adjustable levels, so users can tailor their workout intensity without disturbing others. Whether you prefer a relaxing endurance row or a sweat-inducing sprint session, this machine adapts to your goals without compromise.
Immersive 21.5″ Rotating Screen with Free Mirroring
The heart of the R1 M PLUS experience is its 21.5-inch 1080p full HD screen. Designed to rotate 360°, it enables not only rowing sessions but also access to stretching, HIIT, yoga, and strength training classes—all in one place.
A major highlight is the R1 M PLUS's Free & Unlimited Screen Mirroring feature. Without requiring any subscription, users can simply connect their devices (note: Android phones require DisplayPort support) and stream content directly onto the 21.5-inch rotating screen—from YouTube workouts to popular fitness apps like, Kinomap, or Zwift. This gives users the freedom to enjoy their favorite platforms, videos, or routines on a larger screen, completely free of charge.
While some brands charge over $100 per year for app access, the Yesoul App remains affordable—offering a full library of workouts, real-time data tracking, and training features for less than the cost of a nice dinner out. And even without a subscription, users can still take full advantage of the screen mirroring feature to enhance their fitness experience at no cost.
This flexibility empowers men to stay motivated and consistent while tracking workout data like stroke rate, power, distance, resistance, and calories—all from the comfort of home.
Mental Fitness Matters, Too
Modern masculinity means taking care of both body and mind. Rowing provides a meditative rhythm that promotes stress relief and mental clarity. Combined with scenic virtual routes or relaxing music streamed through the screen, the R1 M PLUS becomes a tool for both physical and emotional balance.
Through the Yesoul app, users can enjoy mindfulness-based workouts, expert-led stretches, and calming cooldowns that promote relaxation and speed up recovery.
Ergonomically Designed for Comfort, Strength, and Safety
The R1 M PLUS features ergonomic handles, adjustable foot straps, and a sturdy yet minimalist frame. It's engineered to accommodate a wide range of body types and rowing styles while minimizing strain and maximizing comfort.
Seamless Integration into Daily Life
Quick Assembly: Easy-to-follow instructions get you started in minutes
Minimalist Aesthetic: A sleek, neutral-toned design blends into modern interiors
Flexible Training Modes: Rotate the screen for cross-training, stretching, or floor workouts
Who Is It For?
This rowing machine isn't just for one type of user. The R1 M PLUS was thoughtfully designed to support all men—across ages, goals, and lifestyles:
Young Professionals: Maximize limited time with full-body workouts that boost energy and reduce sedentary stress
Fathers: Stay strong, focused, and healthy with fast, effective at-home fitness
Middle-Aged Men: Maintain strength, manage weight, and protect cardiovascular health as priorities shift
Retirees: Improve balance, mobility, and longevity through safe, joint-friendly exercise
Whether you're new to rowing or a seasoned athlete, the R1 M PLUS offers an inclusive path to consistent, long-term wellness.
Yesoul's Broader Mission: Redefining Everyone
By spotlighting the R1 M PLUS during Men's Health Month, Yesoul underscores its larger commitment to men's well-being. The brand is actively shifting fitness culture away from intimidation and exclusivity toward accessibility, comfort, and relevance.
From smart bikes to treadmills to rowing machines, Yesoul is building an ecosystem that empowers men to prioritize self-care, redefine their health journeys, and access premium technology without premium pricing.
It's More Than a Machine—It's a Mindset Shift
In a world that often asks men to 'tough it out,' Yesoul is encouraging them to slow down, check in, and row forward—one stroke at a time.
The R1 M PLUS makes fitness easier to begin, more enjoyable to maintain, and more adaptable to the realities of everyday life.
Make Wellness a Year-Round Priority
This June and beyond, take the next step toward better health with a tool that meets you where you are. The R1 M PLUS Rowing Machine isn't just equipment—it's a commitment to longevity, strength, and balance.

Peanuts Provide Much-needed Protein for GLP-1 Users
Plus, Three Macronutrients in Peanuts Support Body's Natural GLP-1 Response ALBANY, Ga., June 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Today, an increasing number of Americans are taking GLP-1 medications to combat obesity and type 2 diabetes, which are serious health issues. GLP-1s deliver a number of benefits, including reduced appetite, better weight management and improved blood sugar control. However, there can be significant side effects. 'While GLP-1s can promote weight loss, some research shows that up to 60% of the loss can come from lean mass rather than fat,1″ says Samara Sterling, Ph.D., a nutrition scientist and director of research for The Peanut Institute. 'That's why it's vitally important for users to closely monitor their diet to ensure they're eating enough nutrient-rich foods, including those that are healthy sources of protein. Specifically, protein supports tissues in the body, including muscles, bones, cartilage, skin and blood.' That's where peanut products come in. Peanuts and peanut butter can be a key dietary element for GLP-1 users because peanuts contain significant amounts of protein, fiber and healthy fats. Research suggests those three macronutrients can help support the body's natural GLP-1 response.2 In addition, the Cleveland Clinic recently shared that 'eating peanuts may help you maintain a healthy weight and avoid having obesity.3,4″ Peanut Protein PlussesAccording to the United States Department of Agriculture Nutrient Database, a single serving of peanuts (about 1 ounce) packs seven grams of protein, which is more than any other nut5,6. In addition, peanuts are a plant-based protein, and a long-term study found that swapping one daily serving of animal protein for plant protein (like peanuts or peanut butter) decreases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.7 Another benefit of peanuts is that they are packed with 19 vitamins and minerals, including niacin, vitamin E and magnesium. In fact, peanuts provide 25% of the recommended daily allowance (RDA) of niacin, which aids skin and nerve function and the digestive system and protects against Alzheimer's disease and cognitive decline.8 On top of that, peanuts are an excellent source of vitamin E, an antioxidant that supports immune function and is a 'hard-to-get' nutrient for men and women.9 In addition, per serving, peanuts deliver 12% of the RDA of magnesium, which has been found to aid blood sugar, heart rhythm, the immune system, blood pressure and even bones. Magnesium intake is also associated with reduced inflammation and a reduced risk of metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes.10, 11 Fulfilling Fiber RequirementsUnfortunately, most Americans only get about 15 grams of dietary fiber per day—substantially less than the recommended amount of 22-34 grams.12 For those taking a GLP-1, fiber is important because constipation can be an uncomfortable side effect. Gradually increasing fiber intake can be helpful during and after GLP-1 therapy.2 Another positive is that fiber helps increase satiety (the feeling of being 'full' and satisfied after a meal) and supports overall digestive health. Fortunately, peanuts are a good source of fiber, providing nearly three grams per serving, which is similar to a 1/2 cup of cooked quinoa or a 1/4 cup of dates.13 Peanut skins also contain dietary fiber, along with other micronutrients that may help to support healthy gut bacteria, strengthen the immune system, regulate blood sugar and reduce inflammation.14,15, 16, 17 Peanut skins deliver other benefits. Roasted peanuts with skins have a higher antioxidant capacity than blueberries.18 Antioxidants have been shown to help prevent oxidative damage in the body that can lead to heart disease and cancer.19 Heart-healthy FatsGLP-1 medications work in part by slowing down how quickly the stomach empties. Eating high-fat meals (like fried foods or fast food) can slow it down further—leading to uncomfortable side effects like nausea or bloating. Sticking with a moderate amount of healthy fats, like those in peanuts, olive oil and avocados, is less likely to upset digestion.2 More than 80% of the fats in peanuts are from heart-healthy unsaturated fats. About 50% of that is monounsaturated fat, the same type found in avocado and olive oil, while 30% is polyunsaturated fat, which is important for the heart. Because of this unique combination, the 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans named nuts like peanuts as a key recommendation.20 Studies show that replacing saturated fats with monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats can offer substantial benefits, including: A reduction in LDL or 'bad' cholesterol that can lead to blocked arteries.21 A reduction in the risk of a heart attack or stroke. 21, 22, 23 A reduction in the risk of dying from cardiovascular disease.21 For those who are taking GLP-1s and anyone who'd like to incorporate more protein, vitamins and minerals into their diet, The Peanut Institute has created a collection of tasty recipes for meals and snacks, including Chickpea and Peanut Falafel, Roasted Carrot and Peanut Soup and Spicy Peanut Hummus. Check out the high protein, high fiber and weight management recipes at or follow on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn and Pinterest. Based in Albany, Ga., The Peanut Institute is a non-profit organization supporting nutrition research and developing educational programs to encourage healthful lifestyles that include peanuts and peanut products. The Peanut Institute pursues its mission through research programs, educational initiatives and the promotion of healthful lifestyles to consumers of all ages. As an independent forum, The Peanut Institute is uniquely positioned to work with all segments of the food industry, the research community, academia, consumer organizations and governmental institutions.

Immunity and Intellect: Manipal Hospital Hebbal Champions Senior Health with Spell Bee Competition and Adult Vaccination Awareness
BENGALURU, India, June 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — India is now experiencing a rise in the proportion of elderly individuals, thanks to advancements in healthcare that have led to increased life expectancy. This has resulted in the necessity for comprehensive health initiatives aimed at chronic illness management, preventive care improvement, and mental well-being enhancement. In acknowledgment of this, Manipal Hospital Hebbal arranged the Senior Spell Bee Competition – for Cognitive Health on June 21, 2025, as part of its Manipal Community Connect initiative. The event sought to foster cognitive engagement among older adults while also tackling an important yet frequently neglected issue—vaccination for adults. The event united 80 lively seniors, all enthusiastic about stimulating their minds and honoring the pleasures of lifelong learning. Dr. Neeraj Chopda, Consultant – Critical Care, Manipal Hospital Hebbal, graced the occasion and interacted closely with the attendees. While applauding the spirit of the participants, he also took the opportunity to raise awareness about adult vaccination—a key pillar of preventive healthcare in the elderly. He noted, 'While most people are aware of childhood vaccinations, adult vaccination is an aspect of health that remains under-discussed and often neglected. With aging, our immune systems become less robust, increasing our susceptibility to infections. Vaccines for conditions such as influenza, pneumonia, shingles, and tetanus can serve as a protective barrier, particularly for older adults. We must move past misunderstandings and accept vaccines as a crucial means of achieving healthier, longer lives.' During the event Dr. Neeraj took the time to respond to the worries and uncertainties expressed by numerous participants regarding adult vaccines. He dispelled prevalent misconceptions and underscored their importance in enhancing immunity, averting hospital admissions, and lowering the chances of complications among older adults. The competition created a vibrant atmosphere, filled with camaraderie and intellectual excitement, as participants showcased their spelling skills and mental agility. The event not only highlighted the importance of cognitive stimulation in aging but also provided a platform for meaningful social engagement among seniors, seamlessly blending fun with awareness. Participants walked away not just with applause and prizes, but also with a renewed understanding of how preventive care can empower them in their golden years. Through such innovative events, Manipal Hospital Hebbal continues its commitment to building health-literate, connected communities—where care extends beyond consultation rooms, and every individual, irrespective of age, is encouraged to stay active, informed, and protected.
