Lots of people wonder is it possible to get in shape with out spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars on equipment, the short answer is, ABSOLUTELY! Now don't get me wrong, the Bowflex is a great piece of equipment, I've used one, and I found them to be excellent. However they can be expensive, especially if you get all the bells and whistles. Nice to have but definitely not required (I will go in to some recommendations and reviews of home exercise equipment in later articles).
If you want to get a good work out with minimal investment in equipment you can do so quite easily, all you need is a set of adjustable dumbbells that you can purchase almost anywhere and a flat or adjustable bench- I would also recommend a broomstick for doing abdominal twists. A pair of push up handles and a pull up bar can also be added to the mix but are not required.
Trust me, you will be amazed how effective a workout you can get with just a bare minimum of equipment and your own body weight.
Don't let the late night infomercials scam you in to buying another "abroller" that ends up as a clothes hanger or garage sale item. These things are all hat, no cattle.
Until next time.
