Bayou Fitness Total Trainer DLX III Home Gym Review

October 4th, 2012 No comments

The Bayou Fitness Total Trainer DLX III Home Gym is the answer for many of us who are tall and heavy. Let’s face it, Americans are big – there’s nothing wrong with being tall – but overweight, well that’s a different matter.

If you’ve tried finding a gym that provides equipment specifically designed for you, it may have been a struggle. Not to mention the embarrassment of being around all those fit young things that seem to inhabit gyms these days.

The DLX III is the answer to your problem.  It accommodates people up to 6’7” tall who weigh up to 400lbs!  No more feeling like a freak at the gym – you can enjoy working out in the privacy of your own home with this amazing system.

If you’ve been watching Chuck Norris, he’s a big advocate of the complete gym system. Many cost over $1000, but this heavy duty, well-constructed gym will give you a huge choice of total body workouts for less than half that amount – less than the cost of gym membership and a trainer for 6 months.

The Bayou system uses advanced ball bearing mechanisms that provide a remarkably smooth and easy workout, even if you do weigh over 350lbs. There’s no other system like it when you compare price and quality.  All working parts of the DLX III are heavily chrome plated offering minimal resistance to the advanced roller system.

And it comes fully assembled. Unpack, attach a few parts, roll it to where you want it then watch the free DVD that’s included.  In just a few minutes you can be on your way to a fitter, healthier you.

You’ll be amazed at the quality of the Bayou Fitness Total Trainer DLX III. It has all the presence of a professional total training machine found at health clubs and gyms.

It’s built for comfort and ease of use. The large squat board is designed to fit your body; the extra-thick bench cushion is even designed to take your weight so you don’t end up with bruises on your knees and other tender pressure points.

With 11 levels of resistance and a choice of 14 custom programs you’ll always be pushing yourself to get into the best possible shape.

Body Solid Powerline BSG10X Home Gym Review

If you’re looking for an excellent workout and you don’t have much space or technical expertise then the Body Solid Powerline BSG10X Home Gym might be just what you’re looking for.

Too many home gyms take a long time and are hard to construct and often they get negative reviews because they haven’t been built properly. Too many times people complain that they don’t have all the parts when in fact they do, or they fail to follow the instructions.

The good news is the Body Solid PowerlineBSG10X Home Gym comes 90% preassembled and all in one box. No messing around with nylon pulleys – all the high tensile strength cables are already in place, all you need to do is to add 9 bolts. That’s it!

Unpack it, add the bolts, get your shorts on and you can be exercising in under 30 minutes. With a footprint of 4’ x 4’ you’ll also be able to squeeze this great little gym in just about anywhere.

You can perform more than 40 different exercises with the Body Solid Powerline BSG10X Home Gym and you can adjust the seat so it fits you exactly. The 160 pound adjustable weight stack is also designed with your safety in mind. At 4’ x 4’ and only 6’6” feet high, the BSG10X is one of the best, most compact home gyms on the market today.

Body Solid Powerline BSG10X Home Gym User Review

I purchased the Body Solid Powerline BSG10X with an optional leg press and it’s well worth getting the two together.

I was very relieved to see how easy it was to add just a few bolts. I certainly didn’t want to mess with adding pulleys and cables because I’m not technically minded and anything I put together I really wouldn’t trust!

This is a solid little gym and backed by a 10 year warranty. I can do all the exercises I want in a very small area.

The only negative, with the leg press attachment in place you sacrifice the leg extension and the curl bar because it uses the same pulley.  On the other hand it keeps this gym compact so it’s a reasonable trade-off if you have limited space.

Bottom Line

The Body Solid Powerline BSG10X Home Gym is great if you don’t have much room and you want to perform over 40 different exercises without having to purchase a number of different pieces of equipment.
