hahahah, have you guys seen the commercial for BowFlex that has the dude who is supposedly 49 years old and hes all like I got a bowflex body, now im living my dream, I play in a rock band and hes up there rockin the bass. I just thought it was funny for some reason. Then hes all rocking out with his shirt off, and at the end of the commercial theres this blonde chick half his age all up on stage with him, giving him the do me eyes... all thanks to bowflex. If you get a bowflex you too can live your dream of playing bass in a rock band. Im gettin one.

Hey don't knock it, the dude is freakin ripped. If I end up looking like he does at that age, I'll be pretty damn satisfied.

Bowflex for me or... taquila for the blonde half my age.... same outcome at the end of the night (she's ready to go and I'm too damn tired)...

I think the taquila is cheaper in the long run.

Yeah, and with Tequila, you can pay as you go in much smaller monthly installments.

Buff people make me cringe...especially women. I look younger than most guy my age because I don't smoke or spent years doing drugs and heavy boozing.

No, no, no!:mad:

That is a grotesque distortion of female weight training. That is not even possible without steroids.

It's that kind of misinformation and distortion that keeps women from even trying. The following are more accurate versions of female weight trainers. Tone and tight. Definitely not masculine. Rachel McLish (First Ms. Olympia) about age 52.

Corey Everson (below) (6 time Ms. Olympia)

Mods, I don't believe these are offensive but please delete if you think it inappropriate.

But back to the Bowflex thing. Well, it's a commercial. Commercials are exaggerated for effect. Bowflex will work if you work it but, like somebody else said, I'll buy it out of your yardsale when you get tired of it.

Sorry about the off topic rant there. I'm just not in the greatest of moods. :o

I just thought it was sweet that he was rockin the bass. I wonder how that meeting went to come up with the commercial:

exec 1 OK we need an older dude to do something cool
exec 2 like skydiving, surfing... oh how about ultimate fighthing?
exec 1 no no no, not that crazy, he is damn near fifty
exec 2 ummm, rockstar guitar player?
exec 1 I like where you are going with that, but we dont want people to think hes a total self absorbed douchebag
exec 2 hmmm, have him playing the bass, no too douchy, believable, non threatening.
exec 1 nice... lets cast a dude that looks vaguely like anton lavey and call it good

rock.

DDD

I love the fact that he says I'm in a 'rock' band. I don't know that I've ever heard anybody quote the 'rock' part. I typically hear, I'm in a band.

And hey tequila is fine and all, but if I don't get the bowflex, where am I supposed to hang my laundry?

What they DON'T tell you about the guy in that commercial

...is that HE is the Director of Sales and Marketing for Bowflex sales in the United States (and ALL Bowflex employees who are in upper management are required to own and utilize Bowflex products on a continuing basis in order to promote their product and to retain a fit and trim appearance at all times)...playing in a Rock band and Living the dream also comes with a six figure income from Bowflex in order to live that particular dream!

bowflex

All this time, I thought bowflex occurred when you pressed the french or german bow so hard that the wood rubbed against the string on an upright.


P.S. Those upright guys have grips that would embarrass a Vise Grip. No dead fish handshakes!!
