Bowflex Home Gyms: A Complete Solution for All Your Fitness Woes
With an increasing number of people setting up gyms in their home, Bowflex brings the perfect solution for home gyms. Not only are they suitable for limited space, but they also offer a wide range of exercises in a single piece of equipment, allowing you to tone every muscle of your body and not just a specific few. The price also is much less than the combined price of the different pieces of equipment you would have had to buy if you bought them separately.
Bowflex offers different models and you have to know what suits you. Once you know what you need, you can select from their wide range.
The most recent equipment on offer is the Bowflex Ultimate 2. It comes with more than 95 exercises and there is no parallel to it in the home gym segment. An added benefit is the 12-year limited warranty that comes with the equipment. And you of course have the lifetime warranty on your power rods.
Bowflex Ultimate XLTU offers some 90 exercises and is perfect for a complete circuit-training workout. Apart from the 90 exercises it also offers you the option of doing aerobic rowing. To top it all you get a 10-year warranty.
The older Bowflex Xtreme has now been improved in the Bowflex Xtreme 2. Now the Lat Tower can be adjusted to two positions and the Squat frame allows you to adjust its position in 4 different ways. Also the cable change required for changing from one exercise to another has been done away with. So it is much easier to change from one exercise to another these days. With a 7-year warranty it comes with 70 exercises.
If you are working on a small budget, you can opt for the Bowflex Motivator. Designed to help you do all the basic exercises this is a perfect solution for all those who want to start off their exercising, but don’t want to pay too extravagant a price at the first sight.
Bowflex Versatrainer has been a boon to all those who have different physical abilities or limited mobility. Beyond strength training it also offers the option of cardio and rehabilitative exercises. What it brings to work out is independence and versatility.
So it is evident that Bowflex are offering a wide range of products to cater to just about anybody’s needs. It is up to you to get yourself the right equipment. However, Bowflex customer support will also be willing to help you out if you can’t decide for yourself.
If you were a member of a club you would have to spend at least an hour and a half to drive to the gym, wait in the queue, do your exercises, and drive back home. All you now need to do is to spend half an hour three times every week. And that too in the privacy of your own room.
Bowflex also fits into smaller apartments allowing you to have a complete gym right in your apartment so it doesn’t matter how limited your space is.

Setting Up A BowFlex And The Learning Curve
Setting Up A Bowflex
When you come home from the store with your new Bowflex home gym, plan on spending several hours putting it all together. Regardless of which Bowflex fitness equipment you select, unless you manage to purchase the display model, you’re going to need to assemble it once you get it home.
It’s recommended that you have someone assist you with putting your Bowflex together. Another set of hands is needed to hold pieces in place while you attach them together with the provided nuts and bolts. It would be next to impossible to put any of the Bowflex fitness equipment together by yourself!
That being said, the instructions that come with your Bowflex are not overly difficult to follow. They provide a large sized image of the fitness equipment completely assembled, with arrows and labels to show you what each piece is called. As the instructions describe each step, a picture of the pieces are shown to help you visually see how to put them together. This allows you to reference the pieces while you’re following the instructions on how to put the Bowflex together.
Learning to Use A Bowflex
One of the biggest benefits to having a Bowflex at home is the ability to work out whenever it is convenient for you. You don’t need to pack a bag and go to the gym. There’s no need to leave several hours early for work in the morning if you want to squeeze in a morning work out. You don’t have to wait for fitness equipment to become available, since the Bowflex is all yours.
If you’ve been working out at the gym for quite some time, you’ll have no trouble transitioning to a Bowflex. Any of the exercises you’ve been doing on various fitness equipment at the gym can be done on a Bowflex home gym. The Bowflex Ultimate(tm)2 can perform over 95 different exercises, covering each of your body’s muscles.
You won’t need to hire a professional fitness trainer to learn how to use the Bowflex fitness equipment. Once it’s put together, you can look through the manual to see all of the different exercises to do, and how to adjust the machine to perform each of them. The equipment is designed for easy adjusting, so your heart rate stays at its top performance level giving you the most health benefits possible. At the gym, when you wait for machines your heart rate drops below it’s target, and you lose out on some of the benefits. At home, you maintain that rate.
You can also watch demos of people doing Bowflex work outs on the Bowflex web site. Videos and DVD’s are available for anyone who is new to working out and wants a little instruction before diving in head first! You shouldn’t worry about being a little clumsy or sore using your fitness equipment for the first time; you will get better with practice!

Bowflex transforms 50 year old granny into Smoking Hottie
The Bowflex Machine is an exercise machine used for strength training marketed and sold under the Bowflex brand by Nautilus, Inc.. It is primarily sold through the use of infomercials.
The Bowflex grew out of a now expired patent first conceived by Ethiopian Engineering student in San Francisco, Tessema Dosho Shifferaw. Bowflex of America, Inc. began marketing the first product, The Bowflex 2000X in 1986. Bowflex of America changed its name to Bowflex, Inc, and became a public company on the Toronto Stock Exchange. In 1999 the company changed its name to Direct Focus, Inc. and initiated an IPO on Nasdaq. With the success of Bowflex, the company bought the Nautilus Corporation, Schwinn Fitness, and Stairmaster Fitness. In 2002 the company moved to the NYSE and renamed itself The Nautilus Group and is now Nautilus, Inc. which owns and markets the Bowflex along with Nautilus, Schwinn Excersise, Stairmaster and Pearl Izumi lines among other brands.[citation needed]
Instead of conventional weights or pulley machines, the original Bowflex machine used a combination of polymer rods to create constant resistance or tension. The machines are marketed as taking up much less space than a complete set of weights and machines. The company held a patent (U.S. Patent 4,620,704 ) on this “power rod” design which expired in April 2004.

Bowflex – Comparison of Ultimate Models
Bowflex offers many models of home gyms. Let’s look at the Bowflex Ultimate models. What are the differences between the Bowflex Ultimate® Home Gym and the Bowflex Ultimate® 2 Home Gym?
The Bowflex Ultimate® Home Gym offers the leg attachment, the lat tower attachment, the aerobic rowing feature, the squat station, and a 2-position adjustable main pulley system. In comparison, the Bowflex Ultimate® 2 Home Gym offers all of the above with the following exceptions: the Ultimate 2 offers an optional integrated abdominal crunch accessory, the Preacher curl attachment, and it has a 5-position adjustable (“no cable change“) main pulley system.
The Bowflex Ultimate® Home Gym offers 90 potential exercises, while the Ultimate 2 offers 95+ possible exercises. In the area of standard weight resistance, both machines offer 310 pounds. The Bowflex Ultimate® 2 offers a 410-pound weight resistance feature for an added cost. Both Bowflex® home gyms come with the patented Power Rod® no-time-limit warranty. In the event that you actually wear out these rods (which is highly unlikely considering the manner in which they are manufactured), the company will replace them free of charge.
A limited warranty on the machine itself is 10 years for the Bowflex Ultimate® Home Gym and 12 years for the Ultimate 2 machine.
The dimensions on these machines don’t differ by much, however, if storage space is a concern, then the Bowflex Ultimate® is slightly smaller in size. The folded footprint for the Bowflex Ultimate® is slightly smaller than the other machine.
Both Bowflex home gyms come with a workout DVD, an instructional manual and a motivational poster to place in your exercise area.
A non-skid mat is offered with both systems, at an extra cost. Place this mat under your home gym – it is essential for protecting your carpet or your flooring.
The price difference between the two is only about $400, depending on where you purchase your home gym. If an abdominal workout is extremely important to you, or you prefer not to change out the cables in between exercises, the Bowflex Ultimate® 2 might be the better choice for your home gym.
Overall, both home gyms are excellent products, whether you are a dedicated athlete or just beginning to get into fitness. Both systems will enable you to become stronger and leaner and help you to meet your personal physical fitness goals.
