The Bowflex Ultimate XTLU model The Bowflex is an exercise strength training device marketed and sold by the Nautilus fitness company. It uses graphite rods to create tension, which are used for muscle training instead of conventional weights.
The device is heavily advertised through infomercials and remains one of the most popular machines to have survived a brief fad of home exercise machines sold during the late 1990s.
In January 2004, about 420,000 Bowflex machines were recalled due to mechanical problems. In November 2004, there was a recall of nearly 800,000 Bowflex machines after reports of the Bowflex Power Pro and Ultimate Fitness models breaking unexpectedly. The Consumer Product Safety Commission says the seats can unexpectedly break, and that the backboard bench can collapse when in the incline position. [1]
