Bowflex – Comparison of Ultimate Models
Lorna Goldsborough asked:
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.

Secrets Of The Bowflex And Home Gyms Revealed In These Free Videos
Brian Hickie asked:
Home gyms can be huge pieces of exercise equipment that take up an entire room. Or they can be a single piece of equipment that fits nicely into the corner. Some Bowflexes don’t require their own addresses in your home, and yet it’s one of the most powerful home gyms on the market.
People who use the Bowflex for twenty minutes a day, three days a week have reported amazing results in the strength and tone of their bodies, as well as improved weight loss. The low impact Bowflex Power Rods reduce or eliminate the joint pain that often occurs when lifting free weights. And they provide even resistance for a consistent workout.
Bowflex offers an unconditional money back guarantee for people who are skeptical of the exclusive Power Rod system for weight training. You can use the Bowflex in their homes for up to six weeks, and if you’re not happy with it for any reason, return it for a full refund. (But you pay the shipping and handling on the return. It’s supposed to go back in the original box with EVERYTHING returned to get your refund)
Weider makes the competitive home gym, the Crossbow. Often compared to Bowflex for its similarly designed exercise equipment, the crossbow is fairly large, so you’ll likely need an entire room to set it up in- or the basement, the whole basement.
Why is it called Crossbow? Take a look at one on the web. And think Robin Hood. Now, it’s not lethal, but it looks like it could be. Maybe it makes you think powerful thoughts while you’re developing powerful muscles.
Weider built “only” 65 different exercises into a single machine as compared to 90+ for Bowflex. But 65 should be plenty for most of us.
Popular exercises for this style of home gym include chest press, incline fly, leg press, bent over row and shoulder press. Like Bowflex, this is both a cardiovascular and weight training machine and allows both forms of exercise on a single piece of exercise equipment.
The Crossbow uses a system they call Compound Resistance, which is meant to provide a full range of motion. You can easily change the amount of resistance, meaning you don’t waste time changing weights.
Another feature of the Crossbow that you won’t find on Bowflex home gyms is the “lat tower”. This helps you strengthen your lats, traps and shoulders.
The reason most people choose a Crossbow over a Bowflex is because of the price difference- Crossbows are far less expensive. You may also find you have a better range of motion with a Crossbow, and more weight resistance.
Trailing these two competitors is the Bodycraft home gym. It’s a complete weight training exercise equipment machines, but only for weight training. With the optional Leg Press unit, it mirrors professional ones in an in-home unit.
The Bodycraft doesn’t offer any form of aerobic exercise to build up your endurance. It is strictly for weight training, which builds strength in specific muscles.
Bodycraft home gyms differ from both Bowflex and Crossbow in that they use the traditional weight system rather than resistance training.
