Early eighties when soloflex was big in the advertising in magazines, there was another home gym that I can re-call seeing that was soloflex's main competition, does anyone remember it's name?

I'd also vote for Bowflex with the Chuck Norris Total Gym as a honorable mention

Did it also use the heavy duty rubber oval resistance discs or something similar?

What did You guys think of the Soloflex and Bowflex? Never really used either one. I did the Total Gym a couple of times. I thought the Total Gym was pretty good.

None of the above names seem to ring a bell, will try and find it, not sure where to start, if I can work it out will post it.

I'm going to date myself here, but I can't resist. Was the article written by Strength Baron?

I recall that some Total Gym models accommodated attaching weights to a bar - likewise for the Soloflex Leg Press

Still have a Total Gym and keep vowing to try it again. Maybe once I clear enough stuff out to keep it permanently set up.
