Bowflex, America’s leading home fitness equipment brand, has helped countless people reach their desired health and fitness goals. The revolutionary Bowflex line of home exercise products delivers gym-quality workouts in your own home, helping you to lose weight, get in better shape or completely transform your body.
In this product spotlight we’ll concentrate on the Bowflex SelectTech 552 Dumbells and the Bowflex line of Treadclimbers — two extremely popular Bowlex products — and for good reason.
The Bowflex SelectTech Dumbbells embody one of the most ingenious and versatile fitness equipment advances in recent years. You no longer need a rack with multiple dumbbells at various weights. The SelectTech series effectively replaces 17 sets of dumbbells using a unique dial system that lets you to quickly adjust the weight in 2.5 lb, 5 lb or 10 lb increments, depending on the model. The whole system sits on one compact base that takes up about the space of one set of dumbbells.
Bowflex offers the SelectTech Dumbbells in three models – the SelectTech 220, SelectTech 552 (the most popular) and SelectTech 1090.
Available in four primary models, the Bowflex Treadclimber provides an option for every fitness level and budget. They include the TC1000, TC3000, TC5000, and TC6000. Owning a Bowflex TreadClimber effectively gives you a treadmill, elliptical trainer, and Stairmaster combined in one compact home exercise solution. The machine’s distinct combination of movements, utilizing two independently operating platforms, is efficient and highly effective.
The most affordable option, the TC1000 features a 3.8 mph (6.1 kph) maximum treadmill speed, while the highest priced TC 6000 runs at a top speed of4.5 mph (7.2 kph). The TC3000 and TC5000 each top out at 4.0 mph (6.4 kph).
There are numerous other important distinctions to be made among the individual Bowflex Treadclimber models. Starting with the TC1000, all models include 3 basic functions — Speed, Distance and Time. The TC3000 also includes Calories per Minute, Total Calories and Total Steps. The TC5000 then adds two more functions — the Climb Indicator and the Heart Rate Monitor. Finally, the top of the line TC6000 packages all of the above plus additional training programs, including Cross Training, Intervals, Plateau, The Brooklyn Bridge and The Golden Gate Bridge. The Heart Rate Monitor on the TC5000 and TC 6000 lets you accurately monitor optimal heart rate levels using an integrated display and wireless chest strap.
We’ve touched on two popular Bowflex products produced for very specific types of exercise. The Bowflex influence is also evident in their line of complete home gyms. These include the Bowflex Revolution, Bowflex Ultimate, Bowflex Ultimate 2, Bowflex Xtreme SE, Bowflex Xtreme SE 2 and Bowflex Blaze.
