This may be cheaper than a gym membership but it certainly doesn't have the same benefits. Also, is it cheaper than a pair of dumbbells or a barbell? I think not. I think this kind of products are designed to fool people into thinking that they can get great results without doing the very hard work that is actually required.
@gundabalf what do you mean.. you get the same resistance... treat it as a cable machine... you can hit every muscle group with this thing you can not do lat pull downs with dumbbells or a bar. what about leg extensions.
Who says people who use home gyms do not know how to work out. Some people have kids and work long hours. with a home gym you can watch your kids and work out at the same time. You are comparing one machine to a entire gym?? think about that for a sec.
Free weights when used consistently causes massive muscle growth. Diet , eating enough of the right foods, knowing when and how to rest contributes to the growth..but to say that free weights don't get you big, is simply not true. It's actually one of the best ways to increase the size of your muscles.
I know , because I've experienced that my self and have seen others transform their bodies completely using free weights.
@tekren6 mine has not lost its resistance yet and i am not the only one regularly using it...plus u get like a twelve year warranty so if the rods wear after uve taken care of them u could probably score replacements.
@RippleEffectWave u can score replacements! guys & gals most of these vids. are of amatures obviously! im 29 used free weight from 97-01 & bought a bowflex power pro xtlu with 410 lbs. res.in 02 & still workout 6 days a week.. i doubted the heck outta this thing! u gotta learn how to use it"" but its like this if it dont work bowflex will refund ur money""" so what other gym offers that? think about it!
the boxflex wasn't designed to make "he-man" bodys. the 210 pound total resistance was designed for making buff beach bodies. that's why personal trainers are still around lol
I was an owner of a bowflex and can say that it was a pretty good HOME GYM equipment. It was great for a chest workout, but failed in other areas like biceps (as you mention here). Of course like you probably know, no fitness machine will ever mimic free weights which is what makes F.W. superior to any home gym. But, if you want a home gym that will give you a quality workout the Bowflex isn't a bad machine for the job.
I use both. My BowFlex Ultimate 2 is a nice piece of workout equipment and I use it daily. However I also use free weights as well. Bigger biceps you need free weights for sure.
i dont get it, why would anyone want to bring the gym to their home. that plastic machine doesnt stand up to all the machines and free weights of regular gyms. plus the one i go to has a sauna. that shit's nice after a workout. got beautiful girls workin the nutritional bar, and a small movie theater in the cardio room. u hurd me, a movie theater. get that experience from that gay piece of shit. i mean if u live in the suburbs and u own one, u should be ashamed.
well ya i got the big old gym membership too, nice girls n all, but when u have a 2nd house, say a vacation house in a remote area where there are no nice gyms around, and you get the bowflex ultimate 2, way better than the one shown, with 90 exercises,,, then bowflew is the shit.
dude maybe some ppl cant afford a gym membership for everyone in their family who work out. and sometime ppl don't want to deal with dumbass ppl like YOU at the gym u dickhead
well if you cant afford a family membership thats one thing, and thats not at all what i was Talking about. owning a bowflex is like 16 dollars a month for like 3-4 years. a gym membership is $20 a month for a one year contract.
if youre single, and would rather spend money on a bowflex, treadmill, abcrunch.. thenn idk what to tell you. youre an idiot.
listen BATTY BOY I HAVE A BOWFLEX AN A TOTAL GYM AND I LOVE IT PONK FUCKER I AM A JAMAICAN FASSY AND IN JAMAICA MAN KILL FASSY LIKE YOU FOR THIS COMMENT
you have 2, what a dumb fuck, what the hell is a ponk??? maybe you should sell one of you machines and use the money to take an english class. and what the hell does being jamaican have anything to do with it, shit head..
I picked up a used bowflex power pro for $125. this used to be their top of the line model. I upgraded the resistance to 405, its tough, compact machine. I found a soloflex for $50, now I alternate beween machine every month.
Haha. Great video. It's amazing how many exercises you can do on the Bowflex. I use the Ultimate 2 and it has totally transformed my body. Check out my review.
It's amazing how many exercises you can do using some imagination, environment and some dumbbells... And you get no slow big inactive muscles but really strong and shaped to last forever...
bowflex is great, definitely one of the best out there. It's quite addictive if you are motivated, I've lost about 21 pounds and gained muscle using bowflex blaze
The guy we got the system from said he literally used it 3 times, and he gave us the invoice for the boxflex. He paid almost $2500 for it, and he gave it to us for $900. Although we did have to drive out of town for a bit before we could get it, but it was worth it.
Excellent video!!!! By the way I would also suggest buying a used bowflex. The reason being, most people buy them and never use them so they are brand new anyways. You will save like $200 dollars
jms....right on!! That's how I got mine, used and barely used. I use my Bowflex and my weights. It's a great machine. I rehabilitated a very sore, srewed-up shoulder using the Bowflex as it let me exercise hard without straining the shoulder. The 450 bucks I paid for the machine was cheaper than a doc and a trainer. I'm a believer.
