> _Originally posted by slowcamaro_ > **beleive it or not push ups help get your max bench up** yea, used to do push-ups all the time when i took Tae-kwon-do…everytime you goofed off or accidently hit someone too hard. Our sensei made us do 50 push-ups. Needless to say, i did my fairshare of both. ---

the real ones start at about a grand and go to around $2300. plus $200 shipping. I got the Schwinn/Bowflex model at Dicks for $800 on the dicks credit card. no intrest or payments for 6 mo it about has everything as the top of the line bowflex does. except only 210 lbs of resistance. but its fully upgradeable to 410lbs. and since it is still made by bowflex, any bowflex attachemnts will work on it. > **[Items in Fogdog store on eBay!](http://stores.ebay.com/fogdog/welcome)** > > Items in Athletes.
