Total Gym 1100

This is easy to use and is easy on your joints--I recommend this for family & friends!

I am not into exercise machines...at all. But this Total Gym 1100 is great for upper body exercises. It uses your body weight as resistense which makes it less than useful for improving leg strength since the legs(mine at least) are already used to lifting my own body weight. Full range of motion with your arms plus the resistence makes a GREAT workout. It is good for abs, kind of like a roman chair if you use it right. Great for muscles you normally don't use when you weight train. I will admit, it takes some creativity to come up with your own exercises to be most useful to you. Just use a little brains and get some muscles.

I bought the Total Gym: number one, because Chuck Norris told me to; number two, it folds up and stores away easily; number three, it was cheap; number four, it leaves no need for all those weights in my room; number five, it streches muscles as it works others; number six, I recognized how useful it would be to my upper body strength.

I say, listen to Chuck Norris, the only guy who does push-ups and is actually pushing the world down! The guy the buggie-man checks his closet for before going to bed! The guy who has a third fist behind his beard! The only guy who can roundhouse kick so fast his foot went back in time and destroyed Amelia Earhart's plane. The guy not on Mount Rushmore because the granite wasn't hard enough for his beard! - Buy one today.

folds easily for storage. very easy to use and you can do lots of different exercises if you read the book. price is good too.

My wife heard about the Toatl Gym 1000 from a friend and decided she wanted to buy one for her home work out. We tried to find one in the local box stores but were told that they were a recently discontinued item but that they had a more expensive newer replacment unit in stock, but my wife only wanted the original T/G 1000 model so I conducted a search on Amazon for this product and came up with three brand new T/G 1000's in the box for around 25 dollars less in price and with free shipping than anything we could have found driving from store to store. The T/G 1000 showed up at my home within one week in great shape and in a fully sealed and factory straped box. I set up the machine and my wife just love's using it. We are very pleased with the Total Gym 1000 and with the price and delivery from Amazon.com.

The Total Gym 1100 is exactly what I needed for efficient use of space and time to work out at home. It is fairly light weight to move around, but sturdy to use. I highly recommend this product! (Even for people who NEVER exercised before - like me!)
