Bowflex - Xtreme 2 SE Home Gym

The Bowflex Extreme 2 SE Home Gym is identical to the Xtreme SE model but adds 5 extra workouts and a quick change pulley system. Still many of the same issues we saw in the Xtreme Se popped up again on the 2 SE model. The resistance system is very inconsistent and lacked versatility. The quick change system did make getting between workouts a bit easier but still workout position was difficult to maintain as a lack of body support options are built into the seat and frame design. Still being able to achieve 70+ workouts on a machine compact as this is nice however, many of those 70 workouts are very much the same. Also many users noted that after a few months of use, progress tended to plateau on the Bowflex system as the resistance max of the rods is reached. We’d recommend looking past the Xtreme 2 SE home gym from Bowflex.
