Guest guest Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 i in relation to point number 5 i tried a IsoMotion series of exercises yesterday first following john on the sit at home dvd just out of interest from such posts as this the dvd is only a introduction so i started to think how else i can use the bow in this fashion and started experimenting different angles etc then when i starting reading this post and others i see this morning the exercise chart for the Isokinator and manual book has been posted looking through these exercises i am sure i can adapt these to the steel bow with out much trouble having already discovering some of these moves myself yesterday. working with the bow the first six exercises on the Isokinator wall chart no problem an i think i can use the rest in the manual even if i have to use a Velcro strap i have for ankle exercises to adapt it ! you hit the nail on the head their! it just goes to show once again how versatile the steel bow is and its endless potential when a bit of imagination and lateral thinking is applied and for the price compared to the Isokinator i believe for the person who needs a training device that goes anywhere and cover all bases the steelbow wins hands down! at a price most people can afford ! > IMHO, Even though we're comparing Apples to Oranges, I'd still advise a beginner to start with the Steel-Bow & buy the Isokinator later on. > > Because: > 1.) The Steelbow is Cheaper. $70.00 + S & H. (more or less) Vs. Iso-K " Classic " @ $250! > > 2.) SB comes with DVD, Chart in English, understandable, etc. Iso-K no DVD (Only Youtubes), Iso-K Manual is difficult to understand. Written by non-English speaker. > > 3.) SB has 3 Different levels of resistance. Iso-K " classic " goes up to 90kg. > > 4.) SB is Beautifully designed, engineered, & well made. SB is a Quality product. Iso-K is also well made and a quality product. > > 5.) You can do most of the the Isokinator Isokinetic/IsoMotion exercises on the Steel-Bow plus a bunch of the " push " compression type Isometric & Isotonic exercises you that you can't do on the Iso-K. > > I already had the Steel Bow and some money to burn, so I decided to investigate and evaluate the Iso-K product. Hey, it's a free country, and I don't regret my purchase, but if I were starting from scratch and were buying a Bullworker type Isometeric/Isotonic/Isokinetic exerciser for the first time, then I'd start with the Steel Bow. > > I have no financial interest in any Isokinator or Bullworker retailers, manufacturers, or distributors. > > Namaste, > TG > > > > > > > > > > > > Hi Guys > > > > > > > > Is anyone using this device...?? If so any feedback on its usefulness..If it works it sure would be handy to have as i have to soon work interstate and its much easier to carry than a Bullworker... > > > > > > > > Also i see on Amazon theres actually 3 different versions of it.... > > > > > > > > Thanks > > > > > > > > > > > > > Thanks .....Looks like it might be a good buy... > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
