Soloflex & Home Gyms in General

Quote from LongShot:

you dislike it because its the HARDEST form of training.

for the same reason the SQUAT RACK is always empty :-/

no. I don't like the rep/wt scheme, nor the emphasis on going to failure. as I said, it may work for others.
 
What is the best program for losing a lot of weight that combines weight training, exercise, and proper diet? Is the Body-for-Life program any good?
 
Quote from hapaboy:

After several months of rehab - had hip and back problems - I've been cleared by my physical therapist to get back into shape.

I'm considering getting a home gym so I don't have to worry about the regular gym problems - distance, traffic, waiting to use the equipment, etc.

Debating whether or not to buy a Soloflex as it is now on sale for under $800 (regular close to $1300).

Anyone use Soloflex before?

How about Bowflex? I notice they have different models, and unless I'm mistaken they all cost more than the on-sale Soloflex.

Any other machines you have found to be effective?

Free weights are out of the question in my situation due to the absence of a regular spotter (my wife is in favor of a home gym).

My goal is not to become massive - very difficult to do with my high metabolism and slim physique - but very cut, toned, and in good cardio shape.

All you healthy people out there chime in....

I workout every morning using machines,,,,but SoloFlex Sucks
Go to Sport's Authority and for about 3-400.00 you can get a Weider System that has bench, FLy, Legs and pull downs.....do that for 6-8 weeks and if you decide you want to take the next step join a gym and you can sell the station for at least 200.00

When you are coming back from injury you are better off doing it at home so you don;t push yourself to match the guys at the Gym...I have a Universal system at home that's unbelievable and I use it at nights to get a quick workout in if I feel i cheated in the gym in the am....Hell, i'd sell it to you for 200.00 if you would disassemble it:D

if you don't have access to machines like MedX, Cybex, Nautlius, Hammer...

then the simple BARBELL & BENCH is your best bet. (dumbells too)

don't buy expensive inefficient junk.

The problem with the barbell is you cannot get a max. workout with them unless you have a second person to spot you...and BEFORE you commit 1000's to a system, ....make sure you are goging to use it...same goes for joiing a gym...and BTW...I started on those systmes and i have graduated on to bigger and better and can now press 275lbs....not bad for a once skinny basketballplayer
