Bowflex
Has anyone used or is using bowflex? Is it more effective than regular weights?

There's nothing wrong with a Bowflex per se. However, the strength gains you make will be less funcitonal, and you will have spent $1200 when you could've made better gains spending a couple hundred on a mediocre freeweight setup.
The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...

Bowflex and resistance training is no where near as effective as actual weights.
