• I purchased a Bowflex® Power Pro® two years ago and have used it faithfully since. I have gotten good results and am very fit. But at age 59 I am not one of the physical specimens shown on your commercials. The real reason that I am writing is to point out that your product is much more than advertised.
  Six weeks ago I underwent total knee surgery an experience I hope not to repeat. I worked out exceptionally hard with the leg attachement prior to surgery thus allowing my muscle tone to be in top shape. The subsequent physical therapy has been most helpful in my becoming more functional. Unfortunately my insurance will only pay for two therapy sessions a week. I have been able to replicate ALL of the exercises done on the equipment at the therapy gym at home on my Bowflex®. This has allowed me to engage in therapy seven days a week and has really sped up my rehab. I have been able to do leg presses knee flexes and to use the leg attachement for curls. As I gain strength I will be able to engage in more exercises.
  I will never be a poster boy for your company but thanks to Bowflex® I will be able to engage in golf tennis and long walks again. Thanks! - Paul Thorpe

• Hello Folks
  As a 66 yr old formerly retired paperhanger with all the related injuries of the trade
  it is hard to believe how I feel after just three months of Bowflex® workouts. I havnt been to the chiropractor since starting and that was a thirty year habit of sometimes three times a week. Now the muscles holding the weak areas of my spine are strong and I havnt felt painless like thisin as much time.
  I have returned to paperhanging with a new attitude and find that I have more energy and recouperative ability than I had 20 years ago. So having this new found stamina I am capable again of making more than the cost of a Bowflex® each and every week. Now that is what I call dividends. - Peter Robbins

• Well heres my story. I am 28 years old and I had a Bowflex® about 5 years ago and had to sell it because of my financial situation. Later on I joined a local gym with my friends and worked out 5 days a week. Unfortunately it was hard for me to dish-out a lot of money every year for the gym and to get motivated to drive out to the gym after a long day of work so I said you know what I loved my old Bowflex® and I want another so 6 weeks ago I received my Bowflex Xtreme™ 2. I have had better results in 6 weeks then years at the gym. I took photos of myself right before I got the Xtreme™ 2 and just recently took some more and I was amazed at the results. I can't explain it for some reason I am more focused on working out at home and the Xtreme™ 2 is so fun to workout with. In another month I feel I will be in the best shape of my life I can already see the 6 pack coming in. Of course I do watch what I eat and play baseketball 2 times a week but I just love using my Bowflex®. My friends still try to get me to join the gym again but I simply say I AM BOWFLEX® FOR LIFE! Thank you Bowflex® - Ryan Hamilton

• I purchased my Bowflex® 13 months ago. I work out an average of 3 times per week. Going into using this apparatus I was (and still am) recovering from major back surgery in late 2000.
  When I started my workouts I was severely limited in what I could do and how much weight I could utilize. It took me 3 months to get to the point that I didnt feel any pain with any exercise. After that I was able to add 5 lbs on each exercise in regular 2 week intervals.
  Since starting I have lost about 45 pounds of fat (I was over 275 lbs) while adding many pounds of muscle. Though I still have a lot of weight-loss to occur in my legs and abdomen I am well on my way. I see muscle tone in places I havent seen it in years; I feel stronger; have more energy; have more general stamina; and I very much miss my workouts when I can't do them. Though I still do weekly PT for my back I (and my physician) wholeheartedly endorse the benefits of using my Bowflex®.
  Thank you for an outstanding product. Ill be using my Bowflex® for years to come! - Scott Westergren

• I have a Bowflex Ultimate™ and it is the best thing I ever bought. It is so fun to use that when I dont use it I get upset. When I put the machine together I had no idea of how heavy the machine was. It is made just as good as gym equipment or even better. Once you get use to the new resistance you will love it. I recently went back to a gym for a day to to see how they compare and I am just as strong now than I was when I used free weights. I will probably get even stronger. - Bryan Ala

• I am a 46 year old male that returned to college wrestling after a 26 year lapse. I completed the regular season unbeaten at the 197 pound classification. I bought a Bowflex® 4 years ago and have used it to supplement my weight training routines. Due to the versatility of the BowFlex® I have been able to create some sports specific exercises that free weights could not duplicate. I truly thank the inventor of the Bowflex® without it my performance this past season would have been difficult to duplicate. There are those that laugh at BowFlex® not being as good as free weights like they laughed at me not being able to compete with younger athletes. I guess we should ask some of the young men that were beaten this past season by an old man and his Bowflex® if they are still laughing! - Leo Sawyer

• I first bought a Bowflex® back in 2001 after I was in a bad accident that broke my back. Started off slow and today can max the machine out it has been a big part in my recovery I feel and would suggest it to anyone who is serious about getting in shape. - jimmy clark
