Well, Powerline have come up with a superb design with their latest home gym. Compact, high featured and easy to use, the Powerline BSG10X Home Gym, Short Assembly, 160lb Weight Stack gives you a real alternative to costly health club memberships. Easy to assemble and simple to use, the Powerline BSG10X Home Gym provides you with the necessary equipment to perform over 40 different weight bearing exercises which target every major muscle group of the body.
The compact size means most households will have no problem in finding a place for it, and the safe pulley and slide weight system means you can work out in total safety with no need for a person to spot for you. It’s a great machine for all the family to use, due to its fully adjustable seat, and the rugged, strong quality of the machine means that it provides a stable platform even with the most intense of workouts.
Pros
- One of the easiest home gyms on the market to assemble. The Powerline BSG10X Home Gym, Short Assembly, 160lb Weight Stack comes with the pulleys and cables pre-assembled, requiring just 9 bolts to put the machine together. Within 30-40 minutes, you’ll be ready for your first workout.
- The compact design means a small footprint, so most households will be able to accommodate this home gym.
- Easy to change from one exercise to the next. Simple pin slot weight changes.
- High quality, stable frame. This rugged machine stays firm and still whilst you exercise.
Cons
- Whilst this is a great machine for the average keep fit enthusiast, it won’t prove man enough for high end body builders and power lifters. They will need more than the 160lb weight stack which comes with this machine.
- No facility to add weight to the stack (unless you also upgrade the rod which passes through the weight plates – in which case you may as well spend out on a higher weight machine in the first place).
- Those who require a massive variety of weights and different exercises will find that the options available with this machine may be a little limited.
