ReboundAir Half Fold Rebounder Mini Trampoline Rebound Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this unit over a year ago, and despite using it 3-4 times a week it looks and works like new. The only thing I've done is to squirt the coils with WD-40 twice, other than that it's maintenance free. I still enjoy using it on a regular basis.
Update June 2008: I've moved to Hawaii and this was one of the few things I brought with me. Still use it 4-5 days a week and it is as rock solid as the day I bought it. I remain very pleased with the quality and workmanship. The physical benefits of rebounding are immense, and the fact that it's fun to do doesn't hurt either!
Update May 2010: Solid as a rock, still love bouncing on this baby while I check my email before work. I seriously can not remember the last time I had a cold, it was many many years ago. I used to have 2-4 flu/cold episodes per year.

Stamina 7250 Magnetic Fusion Recumbent Exercise Bike Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was surprised there were no existing reviews for this bike, and in fact I was reluctant to purchase it for that reason, but I'm so glad I did! It's exactly what I was looking for. I'll break down the details in depth for anyone considering this bike:
Delivery - The package did arrive a bit banged up, but all the parts were there and nothing was damaged. It is heavy though... my dad brought it over for me and it took both him and another man to get it up the stairs to my apartment on a dolly.
Assembly - My dad (a mechanical engineer) assembled it for me and it did take about two hours. Mind you this was at a leisurely pace while simultaneously watching a movie. It wasn't terribly complicated, just time consuming. The parts all seem to be of high quality and heavy weight.
Appearance - I love the way this bike looks! It has a more sleek design than most. It fits perfectly in my small apartment living room and isn't even an eye-sore. Technically you need about 4.5' (length of base) x 2.5' (width of widest point, the lower handlebars) of floor space. I also love the walk-thru design, it makes getting on and off less cumbersome.
Functionality - It has plenty of variety in it's programs. I especially like that it has two programs which automatically adjust resistance based on your heart rate (the heart-rate monitors are located in the handlebars). The monitor is bright, easy to use, and has all the features you would want to monitor your progress. I also like that it shows which stage of the program you are in. The column flashes depending on which stage of resistance you are at and you can see how many more columns of resistance levels are left to go. This helps keep you motivated; kind of like seeing the hills and valleys approach as you ride a normal bike. You can also manually adjust the pre-programed workouts to suit your needs. The seat is comfortable; not sitting-in-a-recliner comfy, but certainly adequate for a bike. I'm 5'8" and this bike adjusts to fit me perfectly, with room to spare in either direction for other height ranges. The bike seems very stable, has a water bottle holder (w/ bottle) and weighted peddles with optional straps. Also, this bike is partially recumbent which I find way more comfortable than either an upright or a fully recumbent bike.
The Workout - The best part... this bike is virtually SILENT! I am amazed at how quite it is! I don't think someone in another room could hear it, let alone my scary, hearing-sensitive downstairs neighbors (big plus!). If you're concerned about noise than this bike is for you! I can watch my tv at the same volume I would if I were just sitting on the couch. I worked out for 30 minutes today on the "Interval" setting and was able to work up a good sweat, felt the burn, and my bum and back stayed comfy the whole time. Its great to peddle away, watch your favorite show, and before you know it your workout is done!
All in all - LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!

About Recumbent Exercise Bikes Despite the competition from trendy new fitness inventions, exercise bikes continue to be popular options for home exercise. They offer the same aerobic benefits of riding a bicycle at any time, in any weather, without leaving the comfort and safety of home. Exercise bikes don't take up much space, require little or no balance or coordination, and can provide an effective workout for all levels of users, from beginners to serious competitors. While the same could be said for a number of other types of home fitness equipment, the exercise bike is one of the few that allows you to watch television or read a magazine while you work out.
The term recumbent literally means "lying down." Exercising in a recumbent or reclining position allows the user to have full ergonomic back support, without causing strain on the arms, neck and shoulders, all of which can be common effects of using an upright bicycle. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program.

Kinesifit Weight Wrap System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I first have to say great help when i inquired about this product. I got an email response when i had a question before i decided to purchase these weight wraps. My comment on this item is this. It works!! If u can get the darn thing to stay on. The material on it is a comfprtable but start working up a sweet it likes to slide back and forth at times making it rather difficult to even go on a brisk jog. Make sure u decided on how what size. I purchased a meduim but im starting to think maybe a large would have been the way to go. The materail will rip if u try to stretch it to get a nice slug fit especially if u want to prevent the wraps from sliding off when u work out and start sweeating. All in all its a good product and i highly recommend it if u want to give your body a workout. Running walking pushups crunches pullups swimming u name it this stuff will make a simple pull up a challenge. I also suggest that u figure out a way to make the things sweat proof so u dont have the problem i do. I have yet figure out to prevent the darn things from sliding. Another thing the weights have a tendencey to slide out. another down side of it. Aside from that its a great product.

NEW ZFO-80LBS Adjustable Weighted Vest (WEIGHTS INCLUDED.One size fits all.) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have a 40lb. xvest and wanted to get a weight vest that could handle more weight. The price was right for the 80lb. ZFO, much cheaper than the heavier xvest. The ZFO was delivered an astonishing two days after I ordered it.
As to the details, the ZFO vest is very similar in design to the xvest, a padded clam-shell design, in this case the weights are not 1-lb. iron rods as in the xvest, they are 4-lb. tightly packed bars of sand (in completely enclosed sleeves) that can be slipped into the many pockets on the back and front (two rows on each side) of the vest. So there are twenty of these bars and twenty pockets. Each row has a flap that you velcro fasten over the pockets and there are two straps with connectors and velcro that you use to secure the vest to your body. You can adjust the length of the straps to get the fit you want. The fabric of the vest is thick and strong (again, similar to the xvest) and the quality is good.
I'm happy with the purchase, but a complaint...the two boxes the ZFO come in had no instructions (and there are none on the website) for how you put the vest together, no suggestions as to how to use it (the xvest website is very helpful for suggestions as to the safe, proper use of a weight vest), and no suggestions for maintenance and cleaning!
This didn't bother me as I was already pretty knowledge from having used the xvest. Still, what would it hurt to give the buyer a little guidance? Shame!

Bodylastics Resistance Bands 388 lbs. of resistance ***MUSCLE AND FITNESS Edition with User Book & DVD Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Strength bands work best with overhead presses, chest presses, chest flys, squats, deadlifts and bicep and tricep work. I tried working out my back with resistance bands and it just doesn't work because the resistance is not even (moreso for rows than lat pulldowns). The resistance will always be the hardest at the end of the repetition because you are stretching out the band, with that said the resistance is not even throughout the entire range of motion but it is close. Resistance bands are not as smooth as the cable pulleys in most gyms, but for the low price, bands mimic cable pulleys pretty well while giving most of the benifits of cable pulleys for 1/10th of the price. If you are strong you will shred the foam off the handles within 1 year (with heavy use). And be sure to check your bands every workout or so because if they begin to shred and you don't replace them with new ones they could break leaving a very nasty injury.
