Bowflex XTL

by dtecchio , May 25 '01
Pros: Excellent overall machine Good quality
Cons: Not for achieving bulky look Cost: try to purchase used
This is a real good machine. Ideal for the person who wants to have the ability to do most weight training with one machine. The "power rods" feel great to workout with. The resistance at the begining of the movement is rather low but then it...

BOWFLEX XTL BLOWS OTHER AWAY

Pros: Easy Use, Smooth and Effective
Cons: Price
I think the Bowflex is a great workout machine and I recommend it to all weightlifters out there. I have been addicted to it since the first day I received it in the mail. I try to work out with the Bowflex 3 times a week. I find that working...

I'll Never Go Back to Free Weights!!!

by Sulzer , Dec 21 '00
Pros: Rods for all resistance
Cons: A bit pricey
I just recently started using the Bowflex Power Pro XTL and I think that I'm in love with it. The resistance on the bows allows any type of person to use such a machine at any time. There are also among hundreds of different exercises that can be...

Bowflex Has The Power

by robtighe , Feb 03 '02
Pros: Incredible resistance, space saver, extremely easy to use, results are real
Cons: Not cheap, long shipping time
Like most everybody, I've been aware of the Bowflex for years, seeing the ads constantly running on TV. I've been a serious exercise enthusiast for many years, and included intensive training with free weights as part of my regimen. But, as will happen...

When only the best will do...

by bem2 , Mar 04 '01
Pros: Best home gym available, versatility
Cons: Price
I purchased a Bowflex Power Pro XTL and it has to be one of the best investments I've ever made. Sure, it costs a lot of money, but the return on your investment is well worth it.

I bought the XTL because membership in a crowded, smelly gym...

added the lat attachment

by rocco13 , Mar 19 '02
Pros: versatility, overall design
Cons: bench press needs more support
I recently ordered the lat attachment for my Bowflex XT. (I wrote my review of the Bowflex XT in December '01, so I won't rehash everything here, just to say it was very positive. The title is 'former iron pumper', and you can read that review if you...

I will be a big man soon.

by LockeCole , Apr 17 '00
Pros: LOTS of exercises
Cons: I'm glad I didn't have to pay for it.
My father recently purchased this machine, despite my warning him not to do so (we have enough machines that are not ever used), a few weeks ago. In a word, WOW. There are so many different exercises to do, it's nearly impossible to get bored. With...

Pros: no more gyms, great design for ease of changing exercises
Cons: some exercises tough to get used to, awkard posisitions
I purchased a Power Pro XTL about 3 months ago. And do I have to say, "I really didn’t want to pony up the funds to spend on something I thought would just sit in the basement." When I did finally make the call to purchase it, I was very shocked. It...

Ultimate Body Builder!

Cons: Nothing
I have given this as a gift to my son and he loves it. I used it for about a week or so and I have seen a outrageous improvement. All my muscles were hard as rock. I could also move around with out worrying about my back hurting or giving in. My golf...

Just BUY one! A home gym that works!

by tschorer , Mar 19 '03
Pros: Easy to use, and it works!
Cons: expensive, may not really mimic weights
If you're like me you're looking around at reviews trying to decide just whether to buy one of these things or not. You've probably gotten their video, watched the informercials etc. JUST DO IT! I wasted a year hem'ing and haw'ing over this purchase....

Great machine

by Lynman91 , Apr 16 '00
Pros: Great total body workout.
Cons: Take some assembly.
I purchased this machine to augment my gym membership. There was just
too many days I missed. I'm like some people who bought machines in the past and ended up throwing them away. What I learned is you have to pay a little more to get quality.

Damn good home gym...

by blank22 , Dec 13 '00
Pros: Good workout
Cons: XTL with the attachments on it is A LOT bigger than it looks on television.
I bought an XTL with all the attachments and an extra set of power rods (310 total). First off, the XTL with all the attachments is MUCH bigger than it looks on tv. It's no wonder they basically only show the basic model without the leg and lat...
