Juniper, the Bowflex is awsome. So is the Total Gym. And $350 is a GREAT price for a bowflex, if it works. I have always been into lifting weights, since I was 15. I have worked in 4 gyms, including the original Golds Gym in Venice CA. There is nothing like being in a gym and working out, because there are motivating factors all around you. But it's also expensive. If you have the room for a bowflex or a total gym, I say GO FOR IT! And if you have trouble in the beginning getting motivated, start out slow. Go do a set in between doing laundry, or making the beds. Do a few sets several times a day, and before you know it, you'll be looking forward to working out. Then you can really design a serious program for yourself.
