Features

• Each dumbbell adjusts from 5 to 52.5 pounds; adjusts in 2.5-pound increments up to the first 25 pounds
• Lets you rapidly switch from one exercise to the next
• Combines 15 sets of weights into one, using a unique dial system
• Eliminates the need for multiple dumbbells cluttering your workout space
• Five-year warranty on weight plates, two-year warranty on parts

Now I'll be the first to admit that when I first heard about Bowflex Selecttech Dumbbells, I was more than a little skeptical. Think about it. Who hasn't grown up without a set of standard dumbbells sitting around? They're basic and relatively inexpensive. Particularly if you pick them up used.

So in my mind, it seemed a little bit like an attempt to re-invent the wheel because dumbbells in form and function are about as basic as you can get. However; that was all about to change after I finally had a chance to try out a set of Selecttechs myself.

My buddy Dave spun the dials and set me up with fifteen pounds on each one, set them in the rack on their stand and told me to give em a go. So I reached down and grabbed them. Man, the very first thing that I noticed about them was their rounded ergonomic handles.

They felt great in the palms of my hand and my fingers wrapped around them perfectly. “Real comfortable”. So anyway, I started in doing a rep of ten curls then set them back in the stand when I was done, to rest my arms and let Dave have a go at em.

So what does Dave do? He reaches down and flips the dials around so I have ten pounds on each one of the Bowflex Selecttech 552 Dumbbells. Then he tells be to kick out another ten curls, which I did and once again I thought I was done.

So once again, Dave reaches down and quickly flips the dials so that I now have five pounds on each dumbbell and tells be to push out one last rep, which I of course did. Now this time for sure I was done because I knew that they can't go any lower than five pounds.

I'll tell you what! My arms were burning by the time I was done with those thirty curls! Dave just looked at me and laughed. “Now do you see why I've switched to Bowflex Selecttechs? “They're worth every penny cause you just can't get results like that with standard dumbbells man”.

We have all seen it on television, in magazines, and on the Internet – the Bowflex. Everyone knows what the Bowflex is and just about as many people have chosen it for their own personal workout system. However, for the very few people who are not familiar with the Bowflex, it is a home gym unit. The Bowflex is an effective home gym that works out all the major muscle groups, is built with advanced Power Rod® technology, allows the you to work out in the privacy and comfort of your own home any time of day, is lightweight and easily stored, and comes with a great six week trial period and financing plan. To put it simply, the Bowflex rocks!

1. Work Out All the Major Muscle Groups

2. Power Rod® Technology

Another reason why the Bowflex rocks so hard is that it is built with advanced Power Rod® technology. This technology allows for you to keep your heart rate up as you quickly change setups to work a different group of muscles. Keeping your heart rate up during a workout is essential to burning fat and losing weight. Additionally, the Bowflex’s Power Rod® technology gives you resistance but without the inertia and risk of joint pain commonly associated with free weights. This means that the Bowflex is safer than using free weights. Another great bonus to using the Bowflex is that you will never need a spotter, like you would with free weights.

3. Work Out in the Privacy of Your Home

For many people, the Bowflex simply rocks due to the fact that you can work out in the privacy of your own home. For many people just starting to work out or is uncomfortable working out in the company of lots of people, as they would encounter in the gym, the Bowflex is the perfect solution. This will allow anyone who is self-conscious about their body image to feel comfortable exercising. Furthermore, having a home gym like the Bowflext allows you to work out any time of day that you want. In fact, you can work out as you watch your favorite television show or while the baby is napping.

4. Lightweight and Easily Stored

Bowflex is truly a convenient home gym. Because of its lightweight construction and streamlined design, the Bowflex can be easily folded up and stored in just about any area of your home. Because it is so versatile, you can easily move it from room to room and do not need a separate room just for working out.

5. Trial Period and Financing Plan

Another reason why Bowflex rocks is that the company truly stands behind its product. The Power Rod® technology is backed by a 30-year warranty, but is not likely to wear out. However, for the true skeptics, Bowflex offers a six week money-back trial period that will allow you to order the home gym and try it out for that trial period. If you are not satisfied with the Bowflex within that time, you can simply return it for your money back. And for those customers who may not be able to afford purchasing the Bowflex in full all at once, the company offers a financing plan so you can get started on working out that much sooner!
