There is more to Bowflex


Bowflex is still one of the best home gym makers on the market, and there is more to Bowflex than you think. [more]


Most of the Bowflex products are on sale


On Bowflex's website, most of their products are on sale (within the continental US). Treadmills and home gyms are hundreds of dollars off. It's worth checking it out. Similar or better savings can be found at Best Buy.

Bowflex products are easier to buy


I don't know how quickly they deliver but it's good to know that most of the Bowflex products are easier to order on both Amazon and the company's website. The last time I checked even SelectTech Barbell/Curl Bar is now available on Amazon but at a much higher price than on Bowflex.com.

Advanced Method of Strength Training

 

Get the book gives you the whole-body strength training method based on the newest findings in bodybuilding and nutrition. It is also based on the philosophy that the workout should be short but provide maximum benefits.

Updates to my Journals


Yesterday, 1/14/22, I updated five (5) of my journals, implementing minor changes. Between today and tomorrow, I will update all remaining journals.

I use those journals in my workouts and still find them helpful. 

Best tool ever


 If you want to improve your fitness and make progress with your workout you need to get serious about it. How do you get serious? You record everything you do.

For that, you need a workout journal. It will help you see if you are making a progress and if not find a reason for it. With such knowledge, you can make changes to your routine and improve.

I do what I preach. As I write this I am halfway through my Bowflex 20 Minute Better Body Workout Journal and I just made a major change in my routine. 

It feels like I accomplished something and even for this small pleasure it is worth using a journal.

Bowflex Xtreme 2 SE Home Gym Review


 Bowflex is one of the leaders in home gym equipment and designs versatile equipment for multiple levels of fitness. 

The Xtreme 2 SE Home Gym model has a few features that make it stand out from its competitors and older models. This piece of equipment is pretty versatile and allows a lifter to perform over 70 exercises. Xtreme 2 SE is a compact model, which means it doesn’t include the fold-down bench. It comes with a descriptive exercise manual which is beneficial for anyone who may be newer to working out or targeting certain muscles.

Xtreme 2 SE comes with the standard 210 lbs of power rod resistance. If that’s not enough resistance, then you have the option of upgrading to 410 lbs, but the extra rods are sold as an add-on. You will be surprised how quickly you will need to upgrade.

The machine has a 7-year manufacturer warranty, while the resistance rods are covered for a lifetime.

You will need 8'x6'5" and the room has to be 83.75 inches high. The machine itself comes in at 53″ long, 49″ wide, and 83.25″ tall.

Bowflex states that this is one of their best-selling home gyms, and after 1 year of use I can see why.
