I saw an ad for a bowflex in Spring of 1998. I thought it was kind of high in price, but it is cheaper in the long run when you compare it to going to a gym which is why I bought one..and it is still in good shape today! With a gym, you have to pay a monthly fee, wait for machines, listen to the kind of music that’s playing there and it’s just more gas money and time. Plus you got to haul around heavy weights, and find a spotter. The resistance can be changed in less than 20 seconds at the most, without having to use a spotter. With Bowflex, that is what I love about it!

Another thing great about this machine is the mobility! With the Nordic Flex Gold I once had, it was very blocky, difficult to move, and the isokinetric device always had problems. Plus you couldn’t really tell if you were getting stronger, and you had to change so many things for each exercise. The bowflex does everything from head to toe, and you can be a little creative without getting hurt. As well, the seat inclines and it can be free sliding as well. There are some other things like the squat attachment and the lat pulldown tower you can purchase as well. The only thing that I didn’t like about the Bowflex was how the ads said that you will look like Randy in a matter of weeks. But, every infomercial makes those kinds of claims.

I would like to point out that the bowflex resistance is gives you the same feeling you do with free weights. My family has noticed I am stronger and more toned looking since I have been using it the past couple of years. They say I have twist the cap on the milk and juice containers way too tight! Even some people say that I shake hands a little too hard. I have even been able to beat some people at arm wrestling that I couldn’t really do before using the thing! No, I don’t have Stallone/Mr Universe strength, but I am not weak. (God, who wouldn’t want to be as strong as those guys?)

Before starting a bowflex program, know and write down what your fitness goals are. For example, my goal was to get a quick, safe and efficient workout from the privacy of my home. Don’t listen to people at the gym that say “Don’t buy those exercise machines because you will turn it into a coat rack”, or “You need weights, man!”, and the many other fitness myths that exist. I am sorry to say this, but no action will produce no results with anything in life. The bowflex will only make you healthier if you 1)commit a couple times a week to it 2)eat sensibly and 3)follow fitness advice rather than listen to someone who isn’t fit.
