Bowflex 3.1 Adjustable Bench
Best Bowflex deal for people new to free weights / weight lifting

Measurements: 154.9 x 68.8 x 104.6cm
Functions: Over 30 exercises possible
Adjustability: Adjustable to four positions (decline, flat, 45 degree and 90 degree)
Features: Removable leg, transport wheels
Reasons to buy
+Sturdy frame +Transport wheels for easy storage
Reasons to avoid
-Short warranty on upholstery (1 year) -Non-adjustable seat
Built to last with heavy-duty steel to support weights up to 217kg, the Bowflex 3.1 Adjustable Bench is perfect for people new to free weights as it helps to stabilize and correct posture. With four positions (45°, 90°, flat and decline), you can do a variety of core, glutes and upper body exercises from bicep and triceps curls, crunches and stretches. The bench comes with a 15-year warranty on the frame (just one year for upholstery), and transport wheels so it’s easy to move and store.
Saying that, it is fairly big – 56″ x 26″ x 20″ – so you need space to house it. And if you’re taller than 182cm / 6ft, you might prefer to invest in a longer bench as your head will hang off the end when you lie flat on it.
The front bar stabilizers of the bench are slightly curved making it extra stable, while the back support has thick and comfy upholstery which is wider at the bottom, giving a better range of movement. Keep in mind that the seat itself cannot be adjusted though.

Best Bowflex deal for runners

Measurements: Large 20” x 60” running surface
Functions: 15 workout programs
Features: Backlit skylight LCD display, three speed workout fan
Reasons to buy
+Large rollers for longer belt life +Easy to fold up and store
Reasons to avoid
– Fan could be more powerful
Bowflex’s Series 7 is the brand’s only remaining treadmill (Series 3 and 5 are no longer manufactured) and it comes with a powerful motor, extra long belt and large variety of workout programs. It’s really quiet and easy to fold up, but not very compact at 135kg (298lbs). The heart rate monitor is a nice bonus, while the in-built fan is a little weak.
Measuring 86.6″ x 36.6″ x 55.2″ and weighing 280 pounds, it demands a bit of space, but can be stowed away when not in use. It comes with a 7″ HD touchscreen, which does the job but feels a little small. But you can use it with a smart TV or other devices and it has an inbuilt media shelf for tablets or phones.
One of the main features we love is the speed and incline up to 12mph and 15 per cent, making for more challenging workouts. It comes with a 15 year warranty.

Nice and compact, the dumbbells are also really quiet because there are no metal weight plates clanking.
