Review Of The Bowflex Home Gyms

You've probably heard of Bowflex; it's a name that's familiar because of the company's television commercials. This well-known American exercise equipment manufacturer got its beginnings in 1986. Since that time, Bowflex has become part of Nautilus and it sells much more than just the Home Gym. While the company's most famous workout equipment is probably the Bowflex Home Gym, it also offers treadmills, a stair climber and the accessories you want to make it easy to work out at home.

This all-in-one home workout gym allows you to perform an assortment of different workouts. A full-body workout will only take twenty minutes per day when you use the Bowflex Home Gym, although you can also make your workout longer if you want to tone up some specific muscle groups.  The flexible rods that come with the machine provide 210 pounds of resistance for a great workout.


   


However, the Home Gym can be upgraded to provide 410 pounds of resistance if you want it and you're able to handle it. Its lower pulley and squat station, lateral tower and angled lat bar will give you a variety of ways you can do upper arm workouts, curls and leg extensions. The Bowflex Home Gym is a full-sized workout machine, but because it folds into a compact size it can be stored in a small space.

It takes about two hours to get the Home Gym all set up, but that's about the same amount of time most home gyms require. You'll have the instructions you need because a complete manual comes with the Bowflex Home Gym. The way these machines work is even better than you could expect. You might be doubtful, but the hype is true. The resistance the Home Gym provides and the movements it allows will enhance your fitness and save you time.

The Bowflex Home Gyms is not without its drawbacks, however. It's large and takes up a lot of space when it's set up, so you'll need a large room for your workouts. You might be able to store it in a smaller area when it's folded up, but you'll need that large room when you're actually using your Home Gym.

You'll spend more money buying a complete home workout gym piece by piece than you will for a Bowflex, and the Home Gym is worth every penny. You'll not only get a high quality workout machine, you'll save a ton of time with your workouts. Rather than taking two hours at your local gym, your full body workout will only take twenty minutes, so you'll still have lots of time for other things.

Some people might have a hard time with the instructions for setup, but the complete instructions can be downloaded. Just search for the manual using your favorite search engine. And if one of the pictures in the manual isn't clear, you'll be able to find some helpful information online. You'll need a couple of screwdrivers to put your Bowflex Home Gym together, so if you don't own any screwdrivers you'll need to buy them.


Read the safety instructions thoroughly after your equipment is assembled, because you'll need to understand how to get a safe workout. The equipment can be dangerous if you're not careful or don't know what you're doing, particularly while you're using it.
