There is a website I monitor on a regular basis called SlickDeals where people post various deals out there. Two weeks ago, a deal was posted for a BowFlex at Amazon.com. It was on sale for $600, but there was a coupon code you could use to get a $200 discount and it included free shipping. The deal was even better because Amazon.com would send you a $100 gift certificate in about 6-8 weeks. For $400 out of pocket and a net cost of $300, my wife and I couldn’t resist.
The BowFlex came less than a week after we ordered it. The first problem we had was where to put it. It’s unbelievable, we have a 3,500 sq ft house and have no where for the BowFlex!
We decided to put it in our media room. We already had an elliptical trainer in there. The BowFlex is kind of big though and while it is open, it actually blocks part of our screen. Here are some pictures of it:


Our media room has thus now become our media room/exercise room. If you look to the far right, you see the elliptical trainer:

I realize I can’t do any lower body work, but I think I’m going to some arm and upper body work 3 days a week. I’ll do it on Mon and Fri which are rest days and on Wed which is a recovery day.
