Me and My Bowflex
« on: April 20, 2021, 08:52:53 PM »
I'd just finished my morning cardio of plodding on my basement treadmill.
I sat there sipping water and looked at my Bowflex , sitting in front of me.

Flashback to a year ago and the Covid pandemic was still new . I was a bit leery of
going back to the gym soon, so, my wife found me a used Bowflex extreme 2 for a cheap price.
I rented a U-haul truck for a couple hrs , grabbed a gym bro and we moved it into my basement.

The power rods were a bit worn, so I ordered a new set from the Bowflex website,  plus an additional 100 lbs of "resistance".
I soon adapted  to doing  benches, curls, rows, pulls downs , curls , rows, etc and even leg curls /extensions on it
It felt like using a new machine with the new power rods and I got "hooked" on Bowflex workouts.

I'm older now, so my wife and I got both doses of the Pfizer vaccine a month ago.
 I've returned to my gym and found a renewed joy of lifting real wts again.

So, here I was this morning looking at my Bowflex and feeling a bit guilty.
My Bowflex was there for me when I needed it. We had a year of  decent workouts together .

My Bowflex taught me   a whole new training experience.
Now that I'm back to the gym and my ol' Bowflex is still there...waiting.

I'm sure I'll do future  workouts on it. I just can't quit on Bowflex  :'(

The problem with Bowflex is that it's all concentric work.  Free weights give much better results.

I'd sell that Bowflex quick before the home workout craze ends.

I found an old Bowflex someone put on the curb last year.  A really old one from the 80s.

Tried it myself but it sucked.

Sold it on Craiglist for $75.

I've got the image in my mind now that you were driving past, saw it, stopped and did an impromptu hard-core workout at the side of the road  ;D

Well, I had to bring it home first.  That would have been cool to do though.

I paid $250 for my Bowflex extreme 2, *plus the cost of the replacement & upgrade power rods.

The thing is , over the past year I developed a "thing" for my Bowflex.

I take pride in seeing it with the upgraded power rods. I really gave it a younger , new  look.
My Bowflex kept me pumping when the gyms weren't available.

Now, I know how some wealthy men feel, when they pay for their woman's boob job . :o

The first time you used the "gal of semen " pic was funny, now you've become a 1 trick pony with a small penis. :o

If you are trying to make Just Plain Jane wife number 88 or whatever you are on, you are out of luck. She is out of your league- she can think.

LOL, Bowflex is like the fugly* skank you hook up with when a hot girl isn't available.  ( *fugly = f'n ugy)

It may not work as good as the gym and you're ashamed to admit using a Bowflex.
But it sure feels good when you're pumping on it, alone in your basement. ;)

“Howard”, do you (and your wife - she will pay for your stupidity) really want to play this game ?

Because I will gladly take whatever ban I receive after I’m done with you.

Your move fatman, but you may want to check with the others about how this worked out for them.

I'm back on get big for a few laughs and don't take it that serious.
I have no desire to engage in some internet feud.

Jane has a knack of posting that exactly when it’s needed, to the rest of us seeing it is even more relieving that finally taking a piss that you been holding in for hours

Hi Henda !

Did you get my last email with the video of me “commuting” to work ?   🤣

I want to buy those big, tall shocks for my new truck. I’ve only driven it twice and it needs those tall shocks like in the Branch Warren lifted truck photo that gets posted (although I’m a touch taller than Branch). I figured you or Chaos would know where to get them ? Although Chaos probably buys his stuff from the LA chollos chop shops.   LOL

Don’t worry about “Howard”, he’s pissing into a wind that he cannot even begin to comprehend.

Anyway, I owe both you and Pellius an email...I miss seeing his posts. I will send you and him pics of my renovated home gym. You will like it. Hope all is well on the bunny front.

Hi Jane I did get it I thought I replied but was drunk that night so maybe forgot to hit send haha very impressive only person I know travels to work like that haha

Sorry can’t be of help with where to get shocks I’d imagine chaos would know better for anything like that I haven’t modified anything on a car/truck in nearly 20 years now

I’d love to see pics of the new home gym I think pelius does still post occasional just not as much at the minute, got the bairn a new rabbit a few weeks back she adores it and has made her happy again no more random crying and bad days i let her have it in her room as had to keep it in 3 weeks while vaccine kicked in and she was so happy I couldn’t bring self to make her put it outside but I’m just pleased she’s happy again thank you for asking always good hearing from you
