I Bought My First Bullworker When I Was 15

I Bought My First Bullworker When I Was 15
Okay, let’s take a brief trip back in time. It’s the 1970s, I’m 15 years old (maybe 14, it’s been a long time), a skinny, rail-thin kid, trying to find my way through Junior High School. I recall my late mother telling me (many years later) how she would lament, “When is this kid gonna get some shoulders?”So, you get the picture. I was the classic 90-pound-weakling. While the other kids my age were putting on muscle naturally, I was being left behind. Without access to a gym membership or other training facility/weight room, what to do? (Weight rooms were for the football players at the high school).Well, I can’t recall when or where I read the ad for the original Bullworker, but I saw it as the answer to my young prayers. Here, finally, was a training device that would be THE equalizer and allow me to develop some muscle and compete with the other young men my age. I saved my money and ordered it from the Sears catalogue (Remember that? The Amazon.com, so to speak, of the day).This green handled wonder finally arrived. I can remember walking into the Sears Catalogue pickup area and being handed the package. This particular event is seared into my memory. That’s how much hope I had pinned on the Bullworker.I ran home and immediately opened it up, pouring through the information, exercises, etc. I dove right in and started my Bullworker exercise program that very day. I used the Bullworker religiously. I did the exercises as described and just kept this secret training device and fitness program to myself, not telling anyone.Then, one day while walking to the school cafeteria, a teacher/coach following behind, stopped me. He wanted to know what I had been doing. He noticed that I had gotten bigger, more muscular, especially in my back.Well, from that day forward, I was sold on The Bullworker. I not only had achieved results, but noticeable results that others had observed.I continued to use the Bullworker through my high school years while competing in Cross-Country, Track, Basketball, and Gymnastics. ( I was a lousy gymnast, but decided to give it a try as a way to enhance my overall training).Then, the Bullworker went off to college with me. I must have cut an athletic figure among the guys in the dorm because my roommate asked to borrow it to train. Sure. Help yourself. Again, the results of my physique were so visible, other guys wanted the same look.The original Bullworker was advertised as being well-built, something that would last a lifetime. Well, their claim, so far, has remained to be true. I still have my Original Bullworker and it still works! I’ve used it for my workouts, on and off, over the years. But most recently, I had forgotten about it.A couple of weeks ago, my older brother Tom sent me a text asking my opinion regarding some different fitness equipment he was considering purchasing for his own exercise program. Our conversation drifted to his asking me about my Bullworker. He remembered my using it when I was a kid. I told him I still had it. He wasn’t surprised. If you know me, once I find something I like, I tend to keep it forever.Well, this conversation inspired me to once again pull out the Bullworker and start the program. I went into the basement, and sure enough, there it was, my original Bullworker in its original case. It was just patiently waiting for me to return (once again) to a tried and true workout regimen.Now, this original Bullworker is 45-years-old (Yep, do the math, I’m now 60.). And it still gave me a great workout. But, seeing that it’s available in an upgraded, brand-new version, after a week of training with the old, I decided to purchase the new. Why? Well, I was getting results...again! Plus, the new Bullworker, with its three included springs, promised to deliver a more rigorous workout. In short, I needed a bit more resistance. One of the new springs would fit the bill.Considering that I paid about $50.00 for my original Bullworker (if memory serves), the price of this NEW Bullworker puts my total investment at about $180.00. So, that works out to 4 bucks a year over the last 45 years. Or, put another way, it works out to a gym membership for 45 years at .33 a month!Now that you have some background, here’s the review of the NEW Bullworker 36" Bow Classic:The Bullworker is very well packaged. It arrived undamaged and in pristine shape. It came with a spiral-bound, full color, illustrated, workout booklet (listing exercises, routines, and training methods), three compression springs of varying resistance (one already installed), a very rugged carrying case with strap, and a non-slip pad for holding the Bullworker in place (if a handle end is placed on a slick floor).The handle grips are generously sized, but not overly large. They have a nice padded feel but are still solid. They are slightly larger than the handles from my original Bullworker. The steel cables look solid and are very well coated with a plastic covering. I especially like the rubberized handles on the cables which help immensely for grasping during traction exercises. A nice touch/improvement that I wish had been included on my original Bullworker.Speaking of improvements, even the New Bullworker case is head and shoulders above the original case (which I still have). It’s made from a rugged canvas material, beautifully stitched with large, expertly stitched letters prominently displaying its name. There’s also a generously long pocket where you can store the extra springs. Additionally, the case has a handy strap so you can sling it over your shoulder should you wish to take it on the road with you.The tubing is solid and beautifully chromed. It has good weight but isn’t overly heavy when performing exercises. The Bullworker seems to balance the right amount of ruggedness with weight.The compression spring already installed was the one offering the least resistance. Swapping it out for the black spring (this offers the most resistance) was a snap. Simply compress the tube, turn the handle, remove the handle, remove the tube, change out the spring. (If you want to see how this is done, you can see instructions and a demonstration on the Bullworker web site).With the black spring quickly installed, it was time to get in a workout. Note: the black spring is quite challenging. If you’re new to this, try one of the other springs, train with it, and work your way up to the black spring.The operation of the device is very smooth. It doesn’t make any rattling noises (something my original Bullworker would do). It’s solid and rugged. Like the original, it feels like it’s going to last a lifetime, as well! And again, the resistance with the black spring, compared to my original Bullworker, is massive! This thing gave me one heckuva workout! I was starting to break a sweat! And, I was only doing isometric exercises/movements with the Bullworker! If Ithought I was getting a good workout using my original Bullworker during the previous week, this new Bullworker definitely upped my game!The benefits from training with the Bullworker are noticeable after only a few days. I feel stronger. My muscles are definitely building and I feel an overall invigoration. In the morning, I’m waking up more easily and feel refreshed. I’m not overly tired due to a long workout from the night before. (When I was doing a treadmill workout, I felt far too tired to get up in the morning).The feeling I’ve gotten from Bullworker training is similar to the one I first got when I was that 15-year-old kid. My original Bullworker manual stated, “We quite frequently receive letters from owners who say they feel as though they could ‘tear trees out by the roots’ This exhilarating sensation often occurs after the very first exercise.” Well, I can certainly tell you I felt a very good pump and a satisfactory feeling of having had a very good and complete workout. I had that sensation back when I was 15 and experienced it again with the new Bullworker.It’s an exercise device that made sense then and it makes sense now.The Bullworker gives me the same great workout I remember as a youth and allows me to fit the training regimen into my schedule. I don’t have to drive to a health club and spend endless hours on weights and treadmills! Even better, I don’t have to wait for someone to finish their sets so I can use the weight machine! I simply grab my Bullworker and do the exercises for seven to ten seconds each, and then get on with other things that require my attention.I’m 60 years old. I don’t want to spend endless hours working out and I don’t want to pay hundreds of dollars for a health club membership I’ll probably end up never using. All I want is a good, honest workout that will build muscle, trim the fat, leave me feeling better and better after each session, and do it all in the privacy of my own home. The Bullworker does this for me!It’s only been a little over a week using my Bullworker (new and old) and I’m already excited about using it each day and look forward to marking my progress. And, lesson learned, I need to stick with what works. I've tried many different exercise methods and routines over the years. I keep coming back to the Bullworker! The Bullworker works!I hope to update this review from time to time and share my progress. In the meantime, if you’ve read this entire review (thank you), do yourself a favor and get a Bullworker! If you’re 15 or 50, The Bullworker will pay lifelong dividends. It has for me, and now with the new Bullworker, will continue to do so.
