Bowflex To Golds Smith Machine
by Trevor
(London ON.)
I used a bowflex for close to year straight, I had the very basic power pro. I was on a strict diet and did lots of cardio as well.
My main cardio though was from the rowing machine in which I wore out the rollers on the seat. I went from approximately 255 lbs to a very lean 215 pounds and gained lots of muscle.
I found that my bowflex was no longer challenging my muscles so I sold it and decided to go back to free weights. I purchased a very nice Golds Smith Machine which had every exercise that you could imagine.
Well after using it for a few months I decided I missed my bowflex dearly. I was getting sore backs and sore joints from the free weights, which when using my bowflex I only got sore muscles, I actually like that pain because I knew it was building muscles. I now have sold my golds machine and am on the hunt once again for a new bowflex.
If used vigorously and religiously with proper diet, the bowflex is all the machine anyone needs. I cannot wait to start working out with a bowflex again. Trevor
