Our Rating

76.7/100

Target all muscle groups through a wide selection of workouts. Power Rod resistance is suitable for all ages and experience levels. This machine is especially useful for users recovering from injuries, designed to deliver low impact workouts with high quality results.

Pros:

Bowflex patent Power Rod resistance.
60+ exercises to select from.
Bench seat adjusts for all shapes and sizes.
Spacious workout area (8′ 4″ x 6′ 6″).
Lifetime guarantee on Power Rods.

Cons:

This home gym does not target abs.
A bulky design for a home gym that takes up quite a bit of floor space.
The 210 lb. max user weight is adequate, but certainly does not support all users.

Introduction

The Bowflex Blaze home gym is equipped to work all major muscle groups including upper body, lower body, and the heart. Sadly, the home gym doesn’t invite abs to the party, which will be a major drawback for some (such as Instagram users). Ultimately, the Bowflex Blaze is best suited to strength training and not nearly as adept for cardiovascular activities. There are some cardio workout options, but the Bowflex Blaze is primarily designed for muscle building.

Home Gym Workouts

Sixty exercises are included with the Bowflex Blaze home gym, including a 20 minute Bowflex Blaze workout specially designed to take advantage of the machine. Bowflex stands behind its commitment to give you fast results by working out 20 minutes a day, three times a week. These exercises concentrate on providing exercises that burn calories, sculpt your muscles, and keep you fit.

Bowflex Blaze Features.

Build strong back and shoulder muscles with the lat tower and angled lat bar. Tone your glutes, quads and hamstrings through the lower pulley squat station.

The standard 210 pounds of Power Rod resistance can upgrade to both 310 and 410 pounds worth of resistance for more demanding workouts.

To add further customizability, multiple cable and pulley positions along with triple function hand-grip and ankle cuffs ensure that you will find your perfect customized workout.

Develop muscular legs with the leg extension/leg curl attachment. Reach your targeted heart rate with the aerobic rowing and leg presses found on the sliding seat rail.

Bowflex’s unique handgrip is designed to add flexibility and performance to any workout. Functions include a Regular Grip, Non-Grip Cuff, Ankle Cuff, Foot Cuff, and a Shoulder Cuff.

Warranty & Guarantee

The Bowflex Blaze home gym warranty and guarantee includes:

– Power Rods: Lifetime
– Construction: 5 Years

Conclusion

The Bowflex Blaze home gym does some cardio, but first and foremost it is a strength training machine. There are a wide variety of options available to users with that need though. A number of high power, yet low impact workouts are possible with this single machine. Unfortunately, there are odd gaps in workout options (your abs will feel tragically ignored) and the machine takes up quite a bit of floor for a home gym. This is very clearly the entry level model in the Bowflex line. It is designed for a very specific user, so make sure to compare the machine to other Bowflex home gyms before you commit.
