Bowflex - opinions?
 

I'm thinking about getting a bowflex. Anyone who has one, or has had one, or knows someone who has one, etc, etc, please post your opinions or experiences with it. Thx for the help.

what is a "bowflex"?

Its an excersizing thingy. Just lift weights and run and stuff, do manual labor. You'll get in better shape faster like that.

if you don't do enough sports and whatnot to get exercise naturally, the bowflex works pretty well. I'd get it.

I would just do the manual stuff, gets your core strengh better

Get a Dance Dance Revolution and Para Para Paradise machine instead ;)

bow-flex is only for tuff people so i don't think you should get it :) just kidding go ahead get it...wwweeeeeeeee!

i agree with wetwired... get diet diet revolution and exercise ur fingers! (dance dance revolution's emu on comp :)) para para... i'm not sure... i mean that envolves ur ARMS i mean... isn't that too much exercise? ;)

even though i go to the gym like 3 times a week i think you can get in shape faster with weighs , i dont really like using those machines + machines limit your usage so i'd rather do manual weighs

a dance dance revolution? you sound like a person I just went to camp with. He was obsessed with those

have you never watched a paid program by bowflex or something people!? anything you can do with weights, you can do on the bowflex, its just all in one.

and what is para para paradise?

Ya I can go to a Health Club and lift weights, but health clubs suxxorz. I dont really want to buy a bunch of weights and bars and racks. Bowflex is more portable and space efficient.
and.. ya wtf is para para paradise?

never heard of it....

:rolleyes: those fools who play that way are sad. I'll never have any competition on the leader board if everyone keeps playing that way.

My favorite Nonstop mode sets are:
Para Para: Eurobeat, Boom Boom Fire, One Night in Arabia (I do this set one handed :D)
Freestyle Normal: Burning Desire, Made of Fire, Night of Fire (yeah, it's a theme set)
Freestyle Hard: Eurobeat, Remember Me, Dancer (This is the part where you build those arm muscles ;) )

P.S. I play DDR and Para Para Paradise every day

hmm, I dont know if Ill be buying one of those any time soon.

how to be big and have musles:
do 120 push ups [per day and 300 sit ups(for beginers)
do this for a year and babes will be all over you...

Fact: lifting waits increases your larger musles
Fact: doing pushups increases your smaller musles...

thats a good point, i do around 150 push ups a day(b4 i go to sleep) but the sit ups err or i hate sit ups man


btw now that we r on this topic


does anybody knows if those belts that send a wave or soemthing that make your muscle exercise work? i would love one of these instead of making sit ups

you hate situps, man those are my favorate for working out.

those belts that send electrical impulses are retarded as shit, if they really worked, would there be a fat nerd? no.

actually they work, but the commercial ones lack intensity so they suck.
Basicly they are some kind of electric frequency that fisioterapeuts call "tense" and u can adjust its intensity to make the muscle to make an effort, but as those commercial have almost none intensity is as if u were lifting weighs of 1kg

About the fat nerd thing...If u make sport but u don't care about ur diet...ur muscles will remain under a hughe layer of fat

he doesn't need a bowflex or push ups for babes to be all over him ;) hehe

All in all they shock the hell out of your stumach (i could be over doing it :D...) My aunt has one...

so are you saying they do work? hell im buying one, doing situps fux me up, push ups r not that bad

i dunno if they work...i don't think my aunt usues it anymore...so i couldn't tell ya.
