Bowflex Classic Review:

Background

If by some chance you don't know the Bowflex name, then odds are you don't watch too much television and are good at ignoring advertisements. For years, Bowflex has been “hitting the airwaves” pitching a variety of health products, most notably their home gyms.

The Bowflex home gyms can be expensive, but they do have some advantages over other home gyms, such as not taking up much floor space. The fact that many Bowflex units can be folded up and rolled into the corner of a home or apartment has made these home gyms particular favorites of urban dwellers with limited space.

While the Bowflex company may have begun with limited offerings, today the company offers many different models, ranging from the ridiculously expense to the relatively reasonable.

The most reasonably priced Bowflex gym is the Bowflex classic. The Classic, like most of the other Bowflex home gyms, uses “Power Rod” resistance and a cable and pulley system. The Classic also has a leg attachment and a lat pull-down bar. While the official Bowflex statement is that the machine allows users to perform 30 exercises with a little creativity, this number is higher in actuality.

The Good

The Bowflex Classic allows users to have a varied and relatively safe workout. There are no weights to change and no plates to drop. Overall, the unit is sturdy and a good buy.

The Bad

The price of the unit, at roughly $650, might be out of the price range of many people. However, it is portable, folds up and is sturdy with easily replaced parts.

Exercise

The Bowflex Classic allows users to perform many of the most common weight lifting exercises.

Cost

Expect to pay about $650 for the Bowflex Classsic.
