Bowflex



The Bowflex Xtreme 2 SE


Ordered today. My wife has used a neighbor's before - I've never sat in one. I did some extensive reading on customer satisfaction first, weighing price and performance. Seems you actually have to use the thing to get any results, and this is where the detractors of it come into play. You can't just order it and six weeks later you look like the infomercial. Good to know.

Of course I've always been a bit of a flamboyant - likely it will be the most expensive clothes rack I'll ever own. We'll see.

Best of Luck to you and yours in your fitness endeavors.

Thanks! I'm looking for a 20-minute workout, three times a week. Anyone can spare 20-minutes in their day, right?

If it does not work out as exorcise equipment you can always convert your garage in to a sex dungeon with the "blowflex" as its centerpiece. Geeez that thing looks intimidating.

While I appreciate your confidence in my many talents and abilities, but since I did not order it blessed, nor am I ordained by the Catholic Church, I likely will not use it to expel demons. Unless you're speaking metaphorically of course. In that case, I do intend to exorcise the "evil spirits" from my tummy.

Once again I am f'ed by a combination of dim whit and spell check. I meant only to say exercise. ;-)

I know, but it was more fun when I pretended you were witty. I try to help you. I really do.

I live to amuse you.

I am very envious of you.....I have wanted one of those for a long time but there is no way I can ever afford it! I might just have to come over and try it out sometime!

We'll get you oiled up and in a spandex luchador outfit first. Then you can do battle with, Los máquina.

That looks fierce. Where in the world are you going to put it?

Excellent question! I'm either going to put it in the completely empty gigantic oval room with floor-to-ceiling windows and a bare hardware floor, or outside on the large etched-stone patio by the pool. I haven't decided yet.

That's the two places they show it in the infomercials. They never show it in someone's home.
