SpiraFlex ® Resistance
The Bowflex Revolution ® XP home gym features an
ingenious patented technology called SpiraFlex ® . The
Bowflex Revolution ® XP muscle-building resistance
comes in the form of these cleverly designed resistance
packs, each constructed with a heavy-duty elastic strap
inside the pack. When you perform an exercise, these
resistance packs rotate around the center, stretching
the elastic strap and creating resistance.
A significant advantage of the resistance packs is
that the resistance is present throughout the ENTIRE
range of motion. That gives you a more consistent,
gym-quality experience – which means your muscles
get a bigger burn, a better workout and faster results.
SpiraFlex ® technology is a non-inertial resistance
mechanism that provides the smoothness and feel of
gym-quality pack-loaded machines, but eliminates the
excessive bulk and weight. This totally unique, state-
of-the-art resistance system involves wrapping an
elastic strap tighter and tighter around a coil, which
is contained in a small canister that looks very similar
to free weight packs, but weighs only a few pounds.
Because no metal parts are used, SpiraFlex ® technology
is quiet, lightweight, portable, and safe.

The Resistance
The Bowflex Revolution ® XP home gym comes with 200
lbs. (90.72 kg) of resistance. The SpiraFlex ® resistance
packs look very much like free weight plates and are
assigned a pound rating based on their resistance –
including 5, 10, 20, and 40-pound packs (2.27kg, 4.54kg,
9.07kg, 18.14kg). The real power of the workout is in the
RESISTANCE, not the weight. And that means you can
quickly and easily stack these lightweight resistance
packs on to the Revolution ® XP – just like free weights –
and get a great workout.
