Bowflex, America’s leading home fitness equipment company, has helped countless people reach their desired health and fitness goals. The leading edge Bowflex line of home exercise equipment offers gym-quality workouts in your own home, helping you to lose pounds, get in better condition or completely reshape 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 exemplify one of the most progressive and versatile exercise equipment advances in recent years. You no longer need a group of dumbbells at various weights. The SelectTech series effectively replaces 17 sets of dumbbells using a patented dial system that allows you to quickly adjust the weight in 2.5 lb, 5 lb or 10 lb increments, depending on the model. The entire 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 is like having a treadmill, elliptical trainer, and Stairmaster combined in one compact home exercise solution. The machine’s unique synthesis of movements, utilizing two independently operating platforms, is efficient and highly effective.

The most affordable model, the TC1000 features a 3.8 mph (6.1 kph) maximum walking speed, while the top of the line TC 6000 runs as fast as4.5 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, each model includes 3 elemental functions — Speed, Distance and Time. The TC3000 also includes Calories per Minute, Total Calories and Total Steps. The TC5000 then adds two additional functions — the Climb Indicator and the Heart Rate Monitor. Finally, the high end TC6000 includes 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 allows you to easily keep track of optimal levels using a wireless chest strap and an integrated display.

We’ve highlighted two popular Bowflex products designed for very specific types of exercise. The Bowflex influence is also seen 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.

Bowflex has become the most recognizable name in fitness. They continue to design and produce home equipment options that will keep you motivated and on the path to reaching your fitness goals.

What’s the best cost-saving brand of adjustable dumbbells and bench for a mini home gym?

I plan to begin weight training at home and I’m looking to buy a set of adjustable dumbbells and an exercise bench which can be adjusted to recline for workout purposes. I came across a gym poster which showed a guy using adjustable square dumbbells and I wonder if those are better than the regular ones… in addition, I only want to purchase a single set of dumbbells and the various weight plates to fit into it alone. Is that possible? Any suggestions? Thanks.
