Review of the Total Gym
You have probably seen the infomercial for the Total Gym several times - per day. After deciding that I did not want to continue going to the gym in the dead of winter, I thought that I might give the Total Gym a try. I first wanted to find out the total cost after the 60 day trial period.I found out that there are actually three options when you place your order. When you call, you will be given the cost of the Total Gym 4000, which is the most expensive. I didn't want to spend that much money so the representative said I could order a refurbished model, which are Total Gyms returned
The CardioTwister - You can definitely work up a sweat with this new item.
I was determined that this would not be another piece of exercise equipment that became a fixture for me to throw my clothes.
When it arrived, it was already assembled - which was a definite plus. There are many attachments and over 60 exercises that can be done on the Total Gym.
Regarding the leg pulley, only one came in the package for the model that I ordered. I placed a call to customer service to ask if there had been a mistake and should I have received two. The representative confirmed that only one did come with my particular model but I was pleasantly surprised with she said she would send me the two larger ankle supports - free of charge. I received them within a week.
There are additional attachments that can be ordered for an additional cost. One of these include a pilates kit. Incidentally, the leg pulley is a part of that so you only need to order a pilates bar. The costs for the attachments are very reasonable.
My arms are more toned and slender. Many women have the problem of the “swinging fat” under the upper arms but I have noticed definite toning and less swinging. Since using the leg pulley attachment, I am more flexible and have also noticed more toning of the inner and outer thigh area. My butt has a little more lift than it did before. My total workout routine is about 30 minutes.
Based on my experience, I feel that the claims regarding
the Total Gym are honest and credible. I highly recommend the Total Gym.
It is an effective piece of equipment and if you use it, you WILL see
results and feel the difference. Is it worth the cost? Being that you
do not incur finance charges and the monthly payments are about the same
as most monthly gym memberships, I would say definitely "YES!"
