Bowflex HVT Machine
The Bowflex® HVT™ machine expands on the traditional home gym by allowing users of all fitness levels to complete two workouts in one and see amazing results. The HVT machine offers hybrid velocity training – a new approach to fitness that combines cardio and strength training into one of the fastest, most effective workouts ever designed. In as little as 18 minutes and 20 seconds, everyone – from beginners to seasoned pros – can increase their metabolism and burn calories while building sculpted, lean muscles.
With built-in Bluetooth® smart technology and the free HVT app, users can choose pre-built workouts or customize their own from 50 trainer-led exercise videos that guide them every step of the way – allowing people to go at their own pace through the full-body circuit.
The HVT machine’s dynamic coaching console features three, pre-programmed workout modes, resistance adjustment at the turn of a dial, and an intuitive interface that provides instant feedback to keep users motivated and on track. Whether you’re a beginner or advanced, the HVT machine adapts to fit your needs by offering customized workouts that are as easy or challenging as desired.
Built on a compact platform, the HVT’s space-saving tower design incorporates a six-pulley system combined with a fan-based resistance engine to cater to users of all abilities.
The Bowflex HVT machine will be available for purchase in the second half of 2018 and retail outlets will easily be found at www.nautilusinternational.com.
Schwinn IC7 Indoor Cycling Bike

The Schwinn IC7 indoor bike provides a low-impact, high-energy training experience, with the ability to wirelessly monitor heart rate to allow users to stay in the right heart rate zone – maximizing their results.
The large LCD console displays time, distance, calories and RPMs, while an integrated multimedia device holder allows users to stay entertained during their workouts.

Infinitely variable resistance ensures users can take their workout to the next level or dial it back for a more relaxed ride.

Schwinn Rower
For fitness enthusiasts who work out to enjoy life more, Nautilus, Inc. developed the Schwinn® Rower, a durable, comfortable full-body rowing machine. The Rower features 10 levels of magnetic resistance to challenge beginners and experienced rowers alike, and adjusts to accommodate most heights.
It also features a large, adjustable LCD display that tracks time, distance, strokes, calorie, recovery and pulse without impeding users’ line of sight. The rower folds up so it can be moved and stored easily to conserve space in the home.
The Schwinn Rower’s durable nylon transmission makes it a quiet, but powerful home fitness machine. It also features a large ergonomic padded seat for comfort and handles to help users maintain a tight grip throughout the workout. In addition, large, adjustable row pedals with foot straps anchor users’ feet so they can fully leverage their strength.
