Oh and it's actually 220 pounds standard, upgradeable to 300.

I used it, lost 10 pounds of fat, then gained 15 pounds of muscle.

I have to correct you on one thing.
If you're a serious weightlifter, you shouldn't use the Bowflex REVOLUTION! The regular Bowflex, with its power rods, can go all the up to 410lbs, and if you only use one limb to use both cables (like a concentration curl), you effectively go all the way up to 820lbs. Now THAT'S some resistance!

muscles react from a resistance whereever the resistance comes from so yes it must work dooh

@ottvalley I use both

Gizmos suck, they are a total waste of money, this guy is probably employed by bowflex, if this actualy worked how come you dont see them in gyms? and if they were super effective how come we aren't all buying them and having bodys of gods? and what about the celebritys who use it? Notice how 9 times out of 10 the celebrity is an ACTOR and are paid. It's all a pile of crap.
Go to the gym and use real equipment that the bodybuilders have used, if not buy proper equipment dont waste your money.

Ok, so I have this machine. It sat on my balcony for 2+ years. I just brought it back in the house, because, really, I need to live on the machine. I've been in the crossfit program and true, while I think there's really something to deadlifts, the resistance concept has substance. I'm fat, outta shape and all, but this Revolution comes with a chart of about 20 or positions. I wish they had something that outlined these 400 they always tout. I bought it news, so I have the 2 manuals.

For heavy building, they are the best choice; but in my case, an autoimmune disease with associated arthritis, the Bowflex (either Spiralflex or Rod) is the better option; the ability to, because of the cable setup, change the position of my arms, which helps a great deal to achieve a good workout..
Nothing is better than free weights folks sooooory
