Bowflex Xtreme SE Home Gym Review

by Chris Carter

Product Description:

The biggest problem with those big bulky machines that you see in large gyms is that they are sometimes complicated to use and can help you perform around 10 exercises or even less.

Once you’re all set and done, you’ll need to move on to other bulky machines to target other areas of your body.

This can be inconvenient and worst of all, these can never be done in your home unless you have a big house that can fit these equipment.

This is why the Bowflex Ultimate 2 Home Gym quickly became a best seller for the wide array of features it has to offer.

However, the Bowflex Ultimate is a bit tall and may not fit rooms with low ceiling levels.

Making the device smaller could sacrifice a lot of functionality, but the Bowflex Xtreme SE Home Gym somehow manages to stay compact, but still let you target 6 areas in doing over 65 different gym-quality exercises.

Breakthrough Features

Some of the great features of the Bowflex Ultimate were carried over to the Xtreme SE for ensuring quality to even those on a tight budget.

• Power Rod Technology

Just like the Bowflex Ultimate, the Bowflex Xtreme SE Home Gym has that same no risk and inertia eliminating Bowflex Power Rod having 210 lbs. of resistance standard. It can be upgradeable to 310 lbs. or 410 lbs. for extreme lifting. This technology is enough to put away your free weights for good.

• Squat Station

Everyone should do squats once in awhile to build your glutes, quads, and hamstrings and the squat station lets you do just that.

• Leg Extension

This lets you perform various leg exercises for developing strong muscles.

• 5-way Handgrip

Unlike other handgrips, the Bowflex Xtreme’s 5-way Handgrip turns it into a standard grip as well as a non-grip cuff, foot cuff, ankle cuff, and shoulder cuff.

Additional attachments for more exercises

Sure, the size has been dramatically reduced to the Reinforced “X” shaped base, but that doesn’t cut down the number of exercises too much. You can still do over 65 exercises in the Bowflex Xtreme SE, but what matters most is that the 6 major body areas – chest, shoulders, back, legs, arms, and abs are still covered allowing you to do a total body workout by doing some basic exercises all with the help of a single machine. And for those unfamiliar with those particular exercises, a detailed owner’s manual and fitness guide is made available showing step-by-step instructions on how to perform all the exercises the Bowflex Xtreme supports.

At half the cost of the best selling Bowflex Ultimate, the Xtreme SE is an excellent home gym for those who want it small and inexpensive.

Bowflex Xtreme SE Home Gym Review:

The size and style of the Bowflex Xtreme SE is nothing short of amazing.  All the quality and versatility remains while keeping the price generously low to allow anyone to start exercising at home.
