Anyone own a bowflex?

[Rhonda]

we had a bowflex and sold it. it was nice but I feel I get a better workout with Cathe and weights. The leg workout on the bowflex just wasn't there. The upper body was OK but I couldn't do the lat raises due to restriction on the cable. also the bench press didn't feel to comfortable but that is me. If you do decide to get one hope it works out well and that you enjoy it.

I have one and really like it a lot. I sometimes use it for the exercises on slow and heavy. The only things I could not figure how to do was lunges and plie squats with it. It does have a different feel. I still do my Cathe tapes and add exercises as a bonus. Every once in awhile I will go on a bowflex rotation. I don't think I could give up free weights altogether. I would recommend more than the base 210 lbs of power rods that mine came with. It just is not that hard for leg presses and calf work. I have the lat tower and the squat attachment.
