You get sore when you give your muscles a work out.

Re: FUCKING BOWFLEX AGENTS SUCK
 

I lift 2 or 3 times a week to the point where my muscles no longer work and i never get sore ??? i only get sore if I have a week or more of down time.

Re: FUCKING BOWFLEX AGENTS SUCK
 

I used to do the same thing lift for a week then stop for a week then lift again next week. But now I try and life weights everyday in between work, sleep and whatever else I have to do that day. And I only lift til my arms cant lift anymore. Im only working with 210 but after lifting it for awhile it gets to be a workout.

bowflex better than free weights? WTF are you talking about?

quicker results? are you retarded?

WORK is WORK. Lifting 50lbs with a machine doesn't "work faster" than lifting 50lbs of free weights. You know what the difference is? A machine assists with the load/weight travel. Free weights, you're using only your body to lift instead of a mechanical device directing your movements.

You'll get more "real" results by lifting free weights.

Re: FUCKING BOWFLEX AGENTS SUCK
 

the machine doesn't "help you lift the weights" its designed to make you lift in the correct way, often times people lift more on a machne because of that alone.

also on a machine you do not have to hold the weight side to side, like while doing a bench press. that makes it a tad easier.

i don't see a problem with machines like a blowflex at all... as for lifting until you arms can't move.

definatly not the correct way to lift.

Re: FUCKING BOWFLEX AGENTS SUCK
 

I don't mean it makes it easier. I'm saying you don't use all the muscles that you'd use to stabilize the load like you would with free weights while using a machine.

Re: FUCKING BOWFLEX AGENTS SUCK
 

thats true.

but for at home, id rather have the blowflex than a million free weights. its easier to change weight and do lots of different lifts

Re: FUCKING BOWFLEX AGENTS SUCK
 

tru dat.

I usually stop lifting because I get too lazy to switch the weights out. I'll eventually buy enough crap so I can do all the different lifts without having to swap weights.

Re: FUCKING BOWFLEX AGENTS SUCK
 

On a bowflex you do have to stabilize the load because you're pulling on a cord. A traditional weight machine however has joints and beams that generally only allow one path of movement.
