Hey Frank,

If your mainly looking to lose weight than I can understand why your not happy with your results from your Bowflex. The Bowflex mainly builds muscle. If you want to lose weight do some cardio workouts like jogging. Or if you want to really cut down your weight buy Insanity, that will definitely do some work.

So did you work out the whole time for these 29 weeks? I just kind of skipped through the videos. Week 6 seemed to be looking good.

Frank,

I run through cycles as well. Listen to the great advice about cardio as well. Also, there are many different routines to try. I have done the 3 day, the 2 days on/2 off and the circuit training. Look through the manual for some alternatives. Do not start again. It is too overwhelming. You have had great success and you deserve to keep finding more success. Don't quit and don't use the holidays as an excuse! I am rooting for you. I am up to 290 and I will hit that 310 soon.

I am SO proud of you. I think you'd be a terrific spokesperson for Bowflex. You certainly represent a bigger demographic of the US male population than the men they advertize with. You might want to look into cardio exercises to supplement the bow flex. I have been into judo all my life. Began with my daddy back in the day. I've lost 100+ pounds of weight. Keep up the good work, you are VERY cool!

You look great. Try walking three times a week for 30 minutes each time at an exertion level of 7 out of a scale of 1-10.

You have done really well, don't get discouraged. I got ill well into my weight loss, got depressed and gained a ton back, now I am fighting it off again. It's a lifetime thing. There are so many different exercises with the Bowflex that I am sure you can find something to change things up well without going to a different weight routine as some had suggested.

P90X is hard ass hell and requires some strong discipline, but i think he can do it, he stuck to bowflex for 28+ weeks.

wow you lost alot weight, wow man, hey..have you looked at the Bowflex tred climbers? they are awesome...you should give it a shot.

You are one strong individual to stick with this, its nice to see people who stick with what they like. good man. I ordered myself the 1090 dumbbells cause i just dont have time to get everything in at gym, even when i got 3 times a week;.

[Davizzle36]

Scrap the bowflex and do P90X.

It works way better then the bowflex by a longshot

lifting helps man, but you need to do more cardio exercise to lose the fat. Ride a bike for a few miles a day on the toughest setting, you will see the pounds drop quick with proper nutrition involved.

Hey Frank. I don't think you need to START OVER. Just stay committed man. Week zero to now you're a way different person. Even if you aren't happy with your progress look at all the people you've inspired. They keep watching and commenting if they weren't inspired. You should start tracking your progress though. Keep us posted on your progress from week to week. Don't worry Frank you look great compared to me. I'm a 5 foot 11 inches 21 year old male who weighs 295 lbs.

You inspire me!
