A device that measures the amount of work performed by muscles during exercise, commonly used in fitness testing and rehabilitation.
From 'ergon' (work) and '-meter' (measure), this scientific instrument measures mechanical work output directly.
An ergometer is honest—unlike your own feelings about exercise, it precisely measures work output, which is why cyclists, rowers, and rehab patients love them: the data can't lie about your fitness gains.
