I'm now a confirmed Bowflex user, but in my serious lifting days, that machine was a joke to us. It may appear that the athlete is lifting a ton, but the incline and the fact that he's is no longer lifting his own body weight makes it less impressive. Yes, it's possible there was 2,000 lbs of plates on the machine, but I'll bet ol' Pat can't squat even 500 lbs! Scout This is a thought I would rather not have thunk. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |
