Light Commercial FreeMotion EXT Dual Cable Crossover Machine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Since this was labeled "light" I was a little worried it wouldn't compare to gym quality equipment. This was a christmas gift for my father last year and just hearing about the delivery and install I was more then impressed. It is just as well built as the machines we use the gym and will last him a lifetime. Some fitness equipment will only last a few years with everyday use, but he and my mother have been using it everyday for almost a year, and they love it! Lots of options for different exercises (maybe get an exercise ball to use as well with some of the movements). Basically he loves it so much, that he jokes that he should make an execrise DVD to go with is...with him as the spokesperson!

The FreeMotion EXT Dual Cable Crossover unit is an extraordinarily versatile and durable strength and cable system. This strength training apparatus includes several premium design features that allow you to safely and effectively target every part of your body. The less-restrictive swivel pulley design ensures fluid cable travel and provides practically unlimited range of motion. Each independently rotating arm rotates vertically in 12in settings and horizontally in 9in settings to accommodate virtually any pattern of movement. This FreeMotion system permits a diverse range of activity for a more custom and comprehensive workout. Perform a variety of standing strength exercises to condition different sets of muscles. Some exercises allow you to target muscles used in specific sports such as golf or tennis. For lower body exercises, the included ankle cuff is Velcro padded for more comfortable and secure placement. And, the weight stacks are cleverly enclosed to limit access to moving parts. Each weight stack is independent, so two people can workout at the same time. The professional-quality Light Commerical EXT Dual Cable Crossover Machine from FreeMotion is designed after the Commercial FreeMotion Dual Cable Cross. This light commercial and high-end residential unit features strong 7 and 11 gauge steel tubing for outstanding precision and durability.

Bowflex Revolution FT Home Gym Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)*I am writing this 'review' not from the standpoint of purchaser, but rather from the standpoint of informer. I hope this can save someone from maybe buying the wrong Revolution.*
There are 3 different Bowflex Revolutions. There is the 'regular' model (the Revolution) (footprint of app. 3'X 8'), then the [space-saving] Rev. XP, and also the [space-saving] Rev. FT (footprint(s) of app. 4'X5').
It seems as though the FT does NOT come with a seat/chair/bench (unless "added on"). Some [other] places offer the 3.1 bench included in the price of the FT. Purchaser should be aware that unless added, no bench will come with FT (again, this is from my research..please correct me if I am wrong).
I am needing a bench that is able to be 'attached' to the unit, so the bench is stable...not wobble-like, or shaky ; therefore, I am opting for the XP. The "FT" is the retail version of the Revolution. Also, I personally see no provision(s) for a [true] preacher curl.
I love the design and footprint of the [space-saving] Revolution(s), just wanted to clear up a potentially confusing situation.
