Both in the same price range.

Which one would you take for a home gym?

If you know any known problems about either of them, please let me know.




PS : Spoonie, stfu. I hate this kid.

both are over priced dude. FWIW I've seen the bowflex ones break before. buy used off craigslist if you are serious about it. A LOT of them are around.

just make sure you get the 55's or whatever the highest is now. No point getting the 35's or 40's because you will run through them too fast unless you weigh like 130 pounds.

Buy a ajustable dumbbell set,
You'll be able to make dumbells from 5lbs all the way to 80+
For 25% off the price
Of course it requires a tiny bit more effort (if you can't pull that off...I'm not sure you are fit to train)

I gathered that. Not sure why you feel the need to bash a guy for working out at home.

ISO 80 pound adjustable dumbells..... they would be like 3000$.....

EDIT: to clarify, I mean 1 dumbbell adjustable to 80 pounds, not 2x40.
