The Body Solid G8I Home Gym has recently been discontinued and replaced with the Body Solid Iso Flex G4I Home Gym. Lets examine the benefits of the patent pending Iso Flex workout mechanism compared to traditional home gym equipment and also compare the discontinued G8I to the new improved Body Solid Iso Flex G4I Home Gym Equipment.
The patent pending Iso Flex technology allows you to get the workout benefits of using both traditional Olympic weight lifting equipment and universal selectorized weight lifting equipment. When you are strength training it is important to work both your primary targeted muscle groups and also the stabilizer muscles. Olympic home gym equipment allows you to accomplish just this. Dumbbells and the traditional Olympic bench allow you to accomplish a complete strength training program working both important muscle groups. However, as you know Olympic equipment is not suited for all home gyms. It is bulky, noisy and are not safe for the inexperienced user. Before the Iso Flex the only other option was to use bows and bands. These can be cumbersome to work with and can also be dangerous especially if they snap back on you. Plus, they eventually wear out and lose resistance strength.
Body Solid developed the Iso Flex home gym equipment with this in mind. Now you can get the safety benefits and convenience of using the selectorized weight stack systems but you also get the Olympic training benefits while using the Iso Flex home gym system which allows you to target both the primary and stabilizer muscle groups while enjoying the compact size and convenience of the exercise machine.
The G4I comes with some nice perks:
1) It is less expensive than the G8I
2) It comes with a leg press option
3) 160 lb. (73kg) selectorized weight stack. Optional upgrade to the 210 lb. (95kg) weight stack available.
4) Telescoping, chrome plated, gas-assist adjustable seat post for quick, smooth adjustment and proper body positioning.
5) 2,200 lb. tension strength, military spec, steel aircraft cables with swiveling ends provide durability and low maintenance.
6) 4½” pulleys are impact resistant fiberglass reinforced nylon with precision machined steel ball bearings.
7) High-density, top grade DuraFirm™ pads with lumbar support provide ultimate comfort and prevent lower back strain.
8) Easy to use, space saving, no-cable-change design. 9) 2” x 3”, 11-gauge mainframe construction assures maximum strength, function and durability.
