 Solid Unit but difficult instructions! February 13, 2008
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
We just finished assembling the unit and it took 5-6 hours. There are 26 steps to the instructions and I found 5 manageable errors in the manual until step 23. Step 23 was a nightmare! They show a picture that is physically impossible to do. I struggled with it until I realized the instructions for the step are totally wrong and ignored them. The remaining 3 steps aren't great either since they tend to refer to parts that are not shown in any image. Still, once assembled, it is a solid and impressive unit - quite large and it cannot be easily stored away - that is fictional. We now have to learn how to actually do the different exercises and then put a routine together - you are on your own a bit for that too. By the way, the leg attachments say to set the bars in a certain position for you height. I'm 6' 2" and my wife is 5' 4" so that may be a problem. Besides, they don't tell you how to adjust for your height anyway, just that you need to do it. It is frustrating that all they would have needed to do is to pay one person to set-up a unit while they watched, and they could have had the manuals many errors and omissions corrected. I'll post a follow-up on how it works for exercise.
 Very pleased. January 23, 2008
I am very please with my Bowflex Sport. It took a while to setup by myself as I was doing it after a motorcycle injury to my leg, but it has definitely helped get me back into shape and having it close by keeps me motivated. Its something I look forward to using when I come home! Soon I'll have to order some extra bows for added resistance! A great buy, I recommend it highly.

The Bowflex Sport home gym is amazing! There is no need to spend hundreds of dollars more for the newer, fancier model. This one has everything you need to do a huge variety of strengthening and toning exercises. As entry level users, our family has had no problem adjusting our routine to fit in an every-other-day workout. The Bowflex Sport allows for all of our different strength levels with a quick change of the resistance of the power rods, and easily changes accessories to provide a multitude of different exercises for your whole body. The only downfall of my purchase was the extended delivery time (by a freight forwarder) but HEY - it was FREE shipping, so I can't really complain! One word of warning: be prepared for the assembly process! (This great machine first comes in the form of a jigsaw puzzle that requires two people for assembly). Overall, I am very satisfied with this great tool that has lead us down the road to a healthy new lifestyle for the entire family!

For normal people (i.e. you are not a guy in the gym three hours a day slamming protien drinks, and compensating for other things that are smaller then they should be) this is the best home gym you can own. I bought one in Feb 1999 and it has worked great ever since. My wife probably uses it more than I do. If you can find a better home gym for the price and size, let me know. Beware, there are a lot of cheaper knock offs out there...they are a waste of money and will fall apart.
