think i saw a ghost.

all lifting is RESISTANCE TRAINING sheesh! you really buy into the ads dont u?
and just how is a bowflex any safer for your back than regular free weights? id love to hear this one.
i have to stick up for bowflex a little. it's not safer, but they will kick your teeth in. you cannot cheat with the bowflex. no bouncing the bar off your chest with it. no amount of body jerking helps at all.

 
they achieve pretty much the same thing. it's comparable to a pushup and a pushup on count. it's the same muscles, but 1 is just a bitch.
well i believe the theory that working muscles from different angles achieves different results (i.e. flat/decline/incline bench). and i know my lats never got a strong as they are now just from chinups.

I used to have a nasty habit of arching my back and have been dq'd for it in comps. It was almost natural for me and had to learn not to do it. Would kill my back when I was done and mostly was due to that.

I have lifted for a couple hours at a time with a totally fuked up back on the bowflex and don't feel any pain in my back when I am done. Trust me it is different.

you also said i dont work for the city of san antonio. want me to post a pic of my business card? it is pretty easy to own you, but its so easy pissing you off.
Still didn't post you or yours. I could also post my business cards as well, but I don't, cause I don't have to. You have proved to everyone that knows you on these boards that you try and act like you are better than us, when all you are is a troll that sucks Tim Duncans dick!

im not saying you cant build muscle with a bowflex, but free weights are much better and thats proven. you cant bounce with DBs either you know. thats what i usually use for bench. the bow flex offers very limited exercises and weight limits too. i could easily rack that thing on bench, so itd be useless to me. i also dont see the point in spending hundreds on a bowflex when you can get a gym membership, have insurance pay for some of it, and end up going there for 1-2 years with the money you spent on the bowflex.
