Bowflex Xceed Plus Home Gym Review

People often wonder if the Power Rods are really enough to build and tone muscle. The resistance required all depends on the unique needs of the trainee, but the Xceed does come with resistance levels from 5-310 lbs. Most people are not going to outgrow this.

For those people who are unfamiliar with the Bowflex Power Rods, you should be aware that eventually these will need to be replaced. After a while, they can lose their resistance. Bowflex provides free replacements and they get high ratings for their customer service and quick response when dealing with replacements.

The one common complaint that users have it can take extra time to change the pullies, the handles, and the resistance when changing exercises. One reviewer offered his suggestion - plan your workout before hand so that you can do it with the fewest and easiest changes.

The Final Word On The Xceed Plus

The Bowflex Xceed is a very low priced home gym that is very good for novice users. More experienced trainees will probably need to step up to a larger gym that offers more resistance, or supplement the Exceed with additional equipment.

" I highly recommend this unit as being as good and maybe better than the ones I was using at the YMCA. I prefer the tension over dead weight. I have to change the connections for different exercises, but I group exercises to mimimize the connection changes" - Portion of actual user review on Amazon.com
