I am going to review the Bowflex Xtreme, one of their first Home Gyms.

People choose for a home gym for a couple of reasons. They are tired of paying the monthly fees of their local health club. Do not want to stand in line waiting for their machine to come available. Like the idea of training in the comfort, privacy and security of their own home. With a home gym they can focus on a specific routine they follow to strengthen muscles. There are also a couple of reason why a home gym should not be good for you. If you have a home business a home gym is maybe not the smartest thing to buy. You must have very good discipline to allow yourself not to think about work when using a home gym then. My opinion your mindset wanders off more often to business then to the excersises on your home gym. When you are going to choose for a home gym, the home gyms from Bowflex are the best money can buy. I have bought the Bowflex Extreme Home Gym in the past and was very satisfied with it.

The Bowflex Xtreme is one of the first Home Gyms that became a hit in the Bowflex product line. I will explain the main features of this home gym and with each feature explain what it is used for:

• A lat tower; you can built back and shoulder muscles with the integrated lat tower.

• Leg Extension; develop strong muscular legs.

• Adjustable Pully System / Squat station; do squats and built your hamstrings, glutes and quads.

• Standard 210 lbs Power Rod Resistance; the Bowflex Power Rod will give the resistance you need, is that not enough? It is upgradeable up to 310 lbs or 410 lbs. Cost you 50 dollar for one upgrade. Recommended if you workout a lot.

• Multiple cable/ pulley positions; you can do custom workouts and will increase the effectiveness of many exercises.

Gym-style vertical workout position; compact size for smaller workout space. X-shaped base for maximum stabilty and a sturdy home gym. Triple function ankle/hand grip cuffs, it's adding real flexibility and comfort in your workouts. Adjustable seat made from Polyurethane. The workout area you will need to have this home gym are: 6'11" height by 4'8" length by 4'2" wide.

With the Bowflex Extreme Gym you can do up to 65 exercises. The best way is to give yourself a deadline when to complete all 65 exercises. You will find out which exercise you like and which one is not for you. When you did that you can make a schedule and begin a good workout. With the Power Rod system you can change the resistance with 5 pounds.

Bowflex is offering a seven year warranty on materials and workmanship, the Power Rod units have a lifetime warranty. You will get a good deal on the warranty what proves for me that the Bowflex Extreme and all other Bowflex Home Gyms are top quality.

When you want a serious workout that strengthen your body the Bowflex Extreme is one of the best. All Bowflex Home Gyms are of high quality and an excellent substitute for a gym membership.
