I read your original post, haha.

Bowflex isn't that great for building muscle, correct me anyone if I'm wrong. A gym membership would be MUCH better. However, you need a good diet (caloric excess) and some other stuff, along with rest and sleep in addition to training. So every other day is best, especially for a beginner (which you sound like you are). Don't forget to work out out your legs and back as well.

Ideally, aim for 45-60 minute workouts.

I think I cleared up a good amount.

ok the best thing to do as a beginner is start a monday wednesday friday workout full body 3 days a week
throw some cardio with it and your set

Don't follow that routine. It has more isos than compounds, haha. It needs some deadlifts, incline bench, rows, maybe dips, maybe pullups.

Behind the neck presses can also result in injury.

i said it was an example of what somthing might look like

Smoundzou put up a simple, full-body routine for 3 days a week with HST principles. That could be a good one for you.

Can you deadlift on a bowflex? I don't think so...

then its time to start a stickied thread that has all the repeated information i see here day in and out.  About new people training with all different types of routines and stuff.  I know we already have some stickied like the HST 3 day routine but another general overview stickied in the training section with HST might be beneficial. 
 
whats the worst it can do?  be ignored and having them ask more questions.  we would just link it to them then.

There's already a "best of training" sticky.

Well, joining a gym would be much more beneficial than a bowflex, and you CAN deadlift in a gym ;)

then you should link the thread to them.  but isnt the best of thread an older thread.  i see everyone throwing around new ideas now and suggesting them.  i think an updated one would work wonders.
