Does anyone here have a Bowflex? Any comments about the equipment (good or bad)?
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Hell, DIESEL, you said yourself that you didn't like the bowflex.
Aparently it is difficult to do deadlifts, squats, lateral raises, and pec flies on the bowflex. Otherwise, I like the premise.

I'm moving in to a new apartment and just thought the benefit in mobility of machines like Bowflex. I have a power rack (I think that's what it is called) that I think is very useful since it eliminates a spotter while doing bench presses and more importantly squats. But it seems that it will consume too much space especially with the olympic bar on.
I guess it really comes down to is what your fitness goals are. i.e. you want to get big compared to just being toned and/or feeling generally good. Nothing beats free weights if a person wants to get big. My main focus right now is to continue to do exercises especially during the lazy winter season.
How about the one Chuck Norris endorses?

Obviously the Bowflex sucks.. but the point is to show Killer up, as yet another johnny come lately who clogs up training threads with garbage.
Actually some machines are good, I particularly like the Hammer Strength machines for rows, and pullovers, and of course I'm assuming that any kind of cable movement is also considered a machine movement.
What I'm opposed to is a workout totally based on machines. The basics should be done with freeweights, and the machines should only complement that.

I don't count cable machines as actual machines, because your motion isn't restricted. Cable machines are great.
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
