Bowflex isn't like a lot of fitness machines you've seen. Nothing looks like it, nothing works like it, and no other piece of fitness equipment gives you the kind of results Bowflex does.

The Reason It Works Bowflex works because you get two benefits with one workout. Not only do you get an aerobic workout by strength circuit training, you build muscle as well.

Muscle is important for everybody, especially people that want to lose weight -- because it's the muscle on your body that burns most of the calories you eat. In fact, each pound of muscle you add to your body burns an extra 175-350 calories a week. Adding muscle increases your metabolism (the rate at which you burn calories while you rest). In a month you could burn up to 1400 extra calories automatically, just by adding one pound of muscle!

Aerobic Exercise And Diets Alone Work Against You With aerobic exercise, you burn calories while you exercise, but the weight might not all be "fat weight". Some of it might be muscle weight. When you lose muscle your metabolism will slow, and you'll burn fewer calories. It's a downward spiral and the only wayout is to add muscle.

Research Study Proves Bowflex Works In study by Dr. Ellington Darden, noted fitness author and researcher, men who exercised with the Bowflex Power Pro, following a "Fast Fat Loss" program written by Dr. Darden, lost an average of 27.95 pounds of fat and gained 3.7 pounds of muscle in only six weeks.
