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]


Interesting review of Bowflex Home Gym at WebMD

Bowflex

 If you are looking for a review that says Bowflex is the best you will be disappointed but at least is fair. 

According to the reviewer, the Bowflex home gym lets you meet the guidelines of the American College of Sports Medicine - particularly if you use a model with the SpiraFlex system.

But for most exercisers, "Bowflex Home Gyms will probably not result in the impressive physiques you see in Bowflex’s advertisements. Nor are they the best workout for competitive athletes."

While it may be a little disappointing, I completely disagree with them, at least it doesn't say don't use it, because it's a waste of time :) I honestly that the system below, the X3 system can be used with Bowflex.


Simple workouts that will make you stronger and healthier


 A few days ago, I shared with many of you a simple morning workout I start my day with.

I would love to share with you now the actual workouts that I do with my Bowflex Home Gym, but there isn't enough room here. So, please visit my page on Amazon and select the journal that fits your needs.

This 7-minute workout will not "destroy you" or "make you burn," it will wake you up!


 Just before writing this post, I checked what others said about morning workout and got quite a few headlines: 

  • Ten minute workouts that will destroy you
  • 10-Minute Workout to Build Total-Body Strength at Any Age
  • ...Energizing 10-Minute Full-Body Pilates Workout
  • Scientists recommend a 10-minute workout with surprising ...
  • Supermodel's 10-Minute "Ab Attack" Workout Got My Core Shuddering


Ok. I am 60 years old. I just need to wake-up so I can walk down the stairs in one piece. 

Here is what I came with: 

  • 1-minute plank
  • 30 seconds side one-hand plank (one each side)
  • 1-minute six-inch leg raise
  • 10 pushups
  • 10 squats


That is it. I am awake.

CAUTION: Doing that every day will develop a habit, a healthy routine.

BTW, don't forget to buy one of my journals :)
