I
can remember back in high school using the Bowflex in my parents'
basement as my form of resistance training and coaches telling me that
I'd never get stronger using it because it wasn't "real" weight. In
their head, they were thinking of something mass-based like dumbbells or
barbells as constituting "real" weight and that is what they thought I
needed to use in order to get stronger. I couldn't understand why,
though.
