does bowflex work as good as a bench press? and does it give good workout for other muscels too?

Question

i have a busy schedual so i dont have time to go to the gym, anyways im just asking if anyone know's how effective the bowflex is at working out chest arms and back, i cant get a regualr bench press at home because i have no one to spot me, does any one know of any other machines that are effective? Thanks for any answeres

Answer 1

The Bow Flex is a good machine because it uses cable style resistance, which makes the muscles and joints balance and stabilize the weight. The only problem is that it is very expensive and unnecessary if you were to use dumbbells or a power cage instead. You may really enjoy a Bow flex, but for the same amount of money you could stock a room full of equipment using barbells, dumbbells, benches and exercise balls. If money is no option get a bow flex and add other equipment to keep your interest.
