What Do Folks that Have Purchased And Use The Bowflex Xtreme 2 Everyday Have To Say About Their Home Gyms?
Let's take a look at some of the comments from actual owner's of the Bowflex Xtreme 2 home gym.Here's what J. Jones had to say...." I have seen those Bowflex infomercials for 20 years now and was the first to say "Yeah right". I believed there was no way it can be as easy as they say it was. I couldn't be MORE wrong. I've owned the Bowflex for 1 month now and cannot believe how easy, fun and fast results have happened. Its simply AMAZING! I love it!
Let me start with the quality. As I was putting it together I was shocked at how well its built. Very study, heavy duty. No cheesy parts.
Second, the DVD that came with it explained everything to me on how each exercise should be preformed safely and to get the best results.
Third, it tells you that you have to commit to a complete healthy life style. You can workout on it as much as you want but if you don't eat right, your NOT going to see the results your looking for.
So, I did just what they told me too.... 1 month, dropped 13 pounds. I can actually SEE the results too! Pants are not staying up, shirts are not as tight and I feel GREAT! Its SO easy if you commit and now that I am actually seeing and feeling the results I am excited to see what happens at the end of 2 months, 4 months, 6 months.
If you have joint problems like I do, this machine is awesome. I struggled with free weights. My joints would ache while working out. With the Bowflex... NOT ONE ISSIUE!
If you're tired of looking like a marshmallow and feeling like a piece of balsa wood, I strongly recommend the Bowflex. It WORKS! Worth every penny I spent on it.
If I had to say anything negative it would be this. It took me about 5 hours to put together but I was able to do it by myself. It wasn't that it was hard or confusing to put together, just took a little while. Still, I am PRO Bowflex. Love it, Love it, LOVE IT! "
D. Gee said this....." Yo, this machine is dope I've heard alot of oppions on this machine and to the 4 stars and below you crazy "5 stars isn't even enough. The assembly was mad easy, the design is sick and the exercises are insane. I've built muscle mass just in the 3 weeks I've owned the machine I've lost nearly 11 pounds in those 3 weeks and more to come. Bowflex rules. "
Bo said this...." From January to May I went from 210 lbs to 180 lbs. I had a Bullworker & Nordic Flex Gold to start helping change my flab to muscle. They were not working so in May I purchased a Bowflex Xtreme 2 SE. In just 4 weeks I cannot believe the difference in my strength & shape that I am in now in only 4 weeks as compared to several months with the others. What a great product. Thank you Bowflex."
