Does it work with weightlifting?

Yes. I noticed that my heart rate is higher when lifting weights than when doing cardio. It also has a workout feature, it's like a timer you start at the beginning of your workout, and it will only report the calories, steps, or distance for that time only. My goal is to burn more than 500 calories in a workout or just compleat 90-100 minute's. .. my average is 700 calories doing cardio and weight lifting

I am not sure about working (i.e., calculated your motoric output). I would recommend you contact New Balance at www.newbalance.com for info. My first reaction would be that if wouldn't as I would "assume" that it works on your inputted data and forward movement (i.e., walking, running, etc.).

Yes. Heart Rate will work with Weightlifting. Its a good measure of effort.

In my understanding the watch is sensing my hand moving and assuming that i am walking if my hand has a wavy or rhythmic motion. So I'd think it will sense your lifting weights also as walking. Also hence the calories credited will not be corrected. ButI think their customer support can answer this best.

Nichole, I am handicapped, so I would not be able to know if it works with weightlifting. I presume it would. Good luck with your experience.Dennis L.

I cannot answer that, as I am not familiar with weightlifting shoes. These are simply correcting heel lifts.

i would say YES it has the squat bar and the lower pulleys to use along with the straps- you would use the same straps for the squat as you would for the pull down lat part of the bowflex-- it all works and i am still happy with mine- i use it everyother day-and my son uses it when he comes home from college- and he pushes the hec out of it--

I have no idea. I do mostly Olympic lifts with it and haven't gone over 185lbs yet but it has worked out superbly.

Maybe, I never could get mine to work. It was not that expensive so I did not return it. I will tell you I originally thought the lifter was not needed, but I wish I had gotten one.

Yes. I've been using this for two years. It is great for anyone whether they're doing P90-X, standard lifting, etc. I'd go with this combo specifically too. Doesnt take up too much room and makes for easier weight adjustment. Almost no assembly so he can get right to work!

Yes it would. It comes with a diagram on how to use it for abs and other workouts.

The answer is a definitive yes and no. Yes, if you get a lifter it'll work with just about every brand of desk phone you might have. No, if you already have a phone system that can accept/programmed to work directly with the headset (ours is Avaya/Nortel - others as described in this thread elsewhere). However, you might still need to get an adapter cable that is appropriate to hook up to your particular brand.

No. They do not.I use it with Pilates and in place of some exercises that I would normally use dumbbells.

Yes, I use them when I go to the gym and I have had no troubles running or lifting weights when using them.
