My Wonderful Bowflex Xtreme

I'm one of those people who have tried a couple of different exercise machines where I fell for the hype of the infomercial. After I bought the Bowflex Xtreme I was a bit nervous that I might have made another mistake of just having high hopes that a piece of equipment could help get me to not only look better, but also be stronger and healthier in the process.

Well, the Bowflex Xtreme arrived in a few separate boxes, and that was my first work out—getting the boxes upstairs to my workout room. I'm just kidding. That part wasn't hard. Neither was putting it together. Just follow the directions no matter how much you think you “know” what you are doing (I suppose I'm talking more to the men here).

Following the simple exercises graphically represented on the included poster I started my workout routine three times a week for about twenty minutes each time. I started out with low resistance, and my muscles quickly began to crave more. The first thing I noticed was a sudden, almost unbelievable, boost in energy and stamina. Then I noticed that in my daily life I could lift more, and do normal tasks for a longer time without getting out of breath.

The only commitment I needed was to actually do the exercises three times a week. That wasn't a problem. It feels so good to get stronger that my body started to crave the workouts like they would crave a bag of potato chips! The Bowflex Xtreme will do as the company promises if the user just puts in a few minutes three times a week.

My Bowflex Xtreme Wonder!

The Bowflex Xtreme, with which, I have been working for over six months is truly a delight and gives me immense pleasure as I sweat it out in the evenings. It is a wonder machine and I can vouch for it, as it has helped me reduce my weight by over 10 kg and firmed up my torso which was grotesque before I started working with my Bowflex Xtreme.

My Bowflex Xtreme has firmed up my muscles in the neck, shoulder and back. The smooth sliding mechanism of Bowflex Xtreme makes exercising with it a pleasure.

Being a government employee does not leave me with much time in the mornings and therefore I found it very difficult to exercise in the mornings or walk the four kms I was advised to walk by my doctor. Bowflex Xtreme saves me a lot of time as I work with it for only 20-25 minutes every day. It has changed my daily routine, improved my health, lifted up my spirits and keeps me in a joyful and pleasant mood throughout the day.

With so many pluses, anyone who has ever exercised with a home gym, will find Bowflex Xtreme a Wonder Machine. But what is it I gained more than anything I have said so far? Can you imagine. I have started preferring T-shirts to formal shirts and what is most exciting is that I find the opposite sex looking at me with that special gleam in their eyes, which gives me unabated happiness as it promises untold pleasures. And the age group of these admirers range from early 20s. For a 40 year old, this is the best that can be in this world.
