Great exercise tool November 27, 2008 This is an excellent, lightweight, easy-to-store piece of exercise equipment. Good for loosening up, light exercise and stretching. Especially good for women who don't want a heavy workout. For men it's good for stretching and warmup exercises.
semi-satisfied August 1, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I had used the same product before a couple of years ago at a gym, and decided to buy my own. When it arrived, the product appeared to be in excellent condition... However when used, it made an extremely loud noise unlike the quiet whirring of the one I had previously used. It almost sounds like nails on a chalkboard as the base rotates. the product works, but it is hard to get over the screeching to use it!
pilates twist July 3, 2008 This is a great product. It really works on your core. I just started working out with a trainer and she had one and I thought it was a great workout if you do it correctly. She gave me a hint to find a spot on the wall and focus on that so you don't end up twisting all the way around. Very easy, I do while watching tv.
The workout is trying to stay balanced May 29, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
For something so simple, you work harder on trying to keep your balance than anything else. Don't try to twist on it without shoes, it will hurt your feet. I tried to watch tv and twist (great concept), but you will twist around in a circle, and you work trying to stay facing forward and keep balanced. Otherwise, you just twist in a circle until you get tired. You may get better balance on a solid surface like vinyl, wood or tile flooring, but the carpet will test your balance.
good basic piece of equipment January 13, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This product does what it is intended to do, that's about it. Great for basic arm exercises. For the money, it's pretty useful.
