What is the Bowflex Blaze Home Gym (what does it do)?
The Bowflex Blaze Home Gym is designed for people who want to do their resistance / strength training from the convenience and privacy of their home, rather than taking time to travel to a gym and paying dues. It is a fitness exercise equipment for every muscle group.
How does it work?
Instead of free weights, the Bowflex Blaze Home Gym uses what it calls Power Rods - durable elastic bands - which supply the resistance for the various exercises. It includes a lat bar to develop the back and shoulders. Squats, leg curls and extensions can also be done. There is even a built in rower for aerobic workouts.
How does it compare to others products like it?
The Bowflex Blaze Home Gym is regarded by the manufacturer to be easier on the joints when compared to free weights. The Power Rod resistance technology or material is unique and Bowflex claims it will last a lifetime.
What are its shortcomings?
Users had only a few minor complaints such as the rated weight or resistance of the Power Rods was too light for exercises involving the leg muscles. Users end up buying the 310 or 410 pound rods. It takes up quite a bit of room and when it folds up, it doesn’t fit under a bed. The rower feature doesn’t give a truly beneficial aerobic workout.
How much is it?
The Bowflex Blaze Home Gym isn’t cheap. It sells for $799 and additional Power Rods are $99 each.
Do they offer a guarantee?
The Bowflex Blaze Home Gym unit has a five year warantee. The Power Rods have a lifetime replacement guarantee.
