What Bowflex Says
Bring the power of Bowflex to your home gym with the Conquest Home Gym, which provides a gym-quality workout in the comfort and safety of your own home.
It offers 210 pounds of Bowflex Power Rod resistance technology and more than 65 exercises to get your body in shape.
This machine can fit in the corner of your home, garage, or even small apartment or condo. You can hook one, two, three, four or all of your Power Rod units to the cable pulley system and go from as little as 5 pounds all the way up to 210 pounds of resistance.
Great for all fitness levels, this versatile machine helps work the back, shoulders, triceps, lats, chest, abs, glutes, hamstrings, quads, and more.
It offers the following exercise options:
Base platform
Lower pulley/squat station
Lat station
Lat bar
Leg curl/extension station
The sliding seat allows for aerobic rowing while a Bowflex equipment mat is included for stability and floor protection. The Conquest folds up and rolls on wheels for convenient storage.
Bowflex's patented Power Rods provide resistance, or weight, that feels as good as or better than free weights--but without the inertia or risk of joint pain usually associated with free weights. You can hook one, two, three, four or all of your Power Rod units to the cable pulley system and go from as little as 5 pounds all the way up to 210 pounds of resistance.
They're precisely manufactured from a high-tech composite material under the highest quality control measures, then sheathed and tested four separate times to ensure quality and durability. The Power Rod units are so strong, you can flex them repeatedly but you won't be able to wear them out. In fact, they're so strong, they're backed by a lifetime warranty.

Overview
Like with many Bowflex machine, the Bowflex Conquest Home Gym takes roughly 2-3 hours to assemble. It comes in 4 boxes and the heaviest weighing in around 65 pounds.
Almost all of the reviews are positive on this machine stating its a great machine for the "Average Joe or Jane" looking to get in shape. This is not a top of the line Bowflex machine but many people consider the results and the amount of features almost on par with them.
Chances are the Bowflex Conquest is fairly hard to find since it is one of the older Bowflex models but if you find a good bargain somewhere you may find yourself getting a great machine at a low price.
I recommend the average person to give this a try. For anyone looking to get seriously bulked up and toned I suggest you look elsewhere as this machine can't provide the workout you need.
As always I suggest investing in adding more weight resistance to your machine as the typical 210 lbs won't be enough for most.
