The Bowflex Power pro exercise and fitness machine is one of the first machines that Bowflex produced and put out on the market. What originally started out as a basic striped down model, has now become a very popular machine with numerous add on features that are available to maximize its functions. However; compared to other Bowflex fitness machines, it still lags behind in overall features but it is by far one of the most affordable models to bring home.
High Tech Power Rods
The Bowflex Power pro is one of the several models of Bowflex fitness and exercise machines that use engineered Power Rods for their resistance during your exercises. They are manufactured from space age, high tech composite materials and are guaranteed for the life of the machine never to wear out or lose their tensile strength.
Added Safety Features
Other positive features of Bowflex power rods that set them apart from other exercise machines that still use obsolete iron weights for resistance, is that Power rods are quiet and much easier on joints and connective tissues during your workout. This is so important, because while everyone generally considers themselves immune to injuries during their workouts, the fact is, that they can happen.
Up to 400 Pounds of Resistance
The Bowflex Power Pro comes with a repertoire of over sixty standard exercises that can be done on it and a resistance rating of 210 pounds off the shelf. However; by simply adding more Power rods, the resistance factor on the machine can be increased to 310 or 410 pounds. It is important to bear in mind that 410 pounds of weight is a lot to play around with, so it is highly recommended that you work your way up to that number carefully and progressively.
Sliding Seat for Rowing
One feature that you will find on the Power Pro, that you wont find on many other models of exercise machines that are out there on the market, is a sliding seat that allows you to do rowing exercises. Rowing exercises are great because they work the whole body from head to toe and are also fun to do at the same time.
Great Instructional Information
The Power Pro also comes with a great informative manual that shows you how to get the absolute most out of the machine during your workouts. Also, if you want to learn more about the Power Pro and other similar Bowflex exercise and fitness machines, a book entitled The Bowflex Body Plan, written by Ellington Darden is highly recommended.
