Great for the whole family!

I purchased this for weight loss and some strength training for my husband and myself. My teen son now uses it for strength and abs. And even my 8 yr old daughter does some workouts on it. Its a little rough at times but only because I'm out of shape. It is very smooth and quick to change around. I can't wait to get better at it and start seeing results!
Pros: Sturdy, Quiet, Easy To Set Up, Comfortable, Strengthens, Easy To Use
Cons: Bulky
I would recommend this to a friend!

I find for myself (over 50, overweight and not fit) that slow controlled motions gives a great toning workout. The set-up was a little confusing, but I got it. To fold up is acutally pretty easy. What I find as an important aspect of using TotalGym is that it conditions the mind, (it is VERY important to 'keep spine to mat', 'keep shoulders down', 'sit straight'...as noted in the cards..) It reminded me of the basics of Pilates and that it's very important to concentrate your mind on body position and movement throughtout workout. I do hope the quality of makemenship stands up. I'm not a muscle builder or anyone of athletic extreme, so I am so hoping this one machine will last me while (with care and maintenance). This is something that is on the personal nature. But doing the abs (I got the ab-pads asseccory) I have a problem with slight bladder leakage. I've noticed that since using the gym doing the abs with asseccory that problem has diminished quite a bit. And, yes, I have tried other methods to no avail.
Pros: Quiet, Easy To Use, Ease of motion, Comfortable, Sturdy, Strengthens, Easy Storage
Cons: Hard To Set Up

Good Way to Start the Day !!!

I use the Total Gym 4 to 5 times a week about 20 to 30 minutes each time. I really like how easy it is on your muscles and joints. I feel more flexible and it gets my heart rate up. For me it is a good way to start the day. It is great for individuals that are getting older and previously enjoyed free weights. Finally, I am pleasantly surprised how sturdy the product is.
Pros: Strengthens, Easy To Use, Easy To Set Up, Quiet, Sturdy, Easy Storage, Comfortable
