A Revolutionary Way to Exercise

27

The Bowflex Revolution® home gym provides an unparalleled number of exercises, with more than 90 exercises and over 400 total variations. You can switch quickly between hundreds of exercises with less setup time than most gym machines. That means a shorter workout while maintaining a higher, calorie-burning heart rate.

This manual and the included poster provide information on a large number of these exercises, but feel free to vary the exercises to meet your needs. Using the adjustable freearms, you can set the arms at 8 for one exercise, and exercise an entirely different set of muscles by simply moving the freearms to 6 or 7 and doing the same exercise.

Changing exercises is simple. The freearms rotate between positions 0 and 9, with 0 being straight up and 9 being straight down. That means you have ten arm positions to work out with, each one providing a slightly different variation of each exercise. Switching cables between exercises is simple with snap-hook attachments.
