To me, it seems like a lot of money for something that doesn't look too promising. I've never tried it tho. I have tried past tv informercial exercise things, and they have never been worth the money. The only ones that I have heard positive feedback for are the Gazelle and the Home Gym (the one with Chuck Norris), altho I've never tried either of those either.
If you want to strength train at home, you could always try videos that use weights. You can get dumbbells at KMart, Walmart, Target, etc. You can then rotate several videos, to combat boredom. I swear by them. I never work as hard without them. |

Thanks for your input, Patty. I do use the rubber bands for strength training and rotate upper and lower body videos. My problems are that lunges are hard on my knees and I have a major lower back problem which seems to get very sore with certain exercises. This thing sort of looks easy on the back, but like you said, it seems like a lot of money for a gamble. I'll have to see if consumer reports has rated it.

Consumer reports is a good idea.
I know my sister had a similar problem with her knees. Her doctor recommended an exercise where she leans her back against the wall, and slides down to a sitting position. Of course, I'm not sure how long you're supposed to hold it, or how may reps, etc. Sorry, if I'm not much help. |
