Hi I am after some extra home gym equipment but have rather a complicated set of requirements so some help and advice appreciated.
At the moment I have.
• Nordic Track 11 personal trainer identical to this one
• Iron Man elliptical trainer
The personal trainer 11 has worked well for me as I have had two back operations 6 and 10 years ago and helps me to keep my shape up to 220 pounds resistance the most I use so far is 160lb. I have been training for nine months slowly building up now doing four workouts a week with it at about 45 minutes and 15 minutes stretching warming up followed by 30 min on the elliptical and 1 hour on days when not doing resistance training and my back feels better now than when I started.
So now I think I need a little more equipment either a bench and free weights or a mulit gym now this will be for myself and my son 18 years old that starts his college degree course in Human Kinetics in September as he is training to become either a personal trainer or a sports team trainer school gym teacher. He is very fit and has been going to the gym daily now for over two years and plays a lot of soccer and other sports.
There is a Bowflex Ultimate® 2 Home Gym for sale locally 6 months old for 1300 is this a good buy or would you recommend some think else.
Thanks in Advance
