My search for an exercise equipment or gadget that works well on muscles but does not hurt the joints was long and difficult.I have paid gym membership dues for years and worked out there religiously but I wanted something mlore personal. One day, I sat down and calculated the yearly cost of my gym membership, and I was astonished. I could invest in an exercise product, and actually save money.
So I went looking for that optimum equipment that fills my requirement and still save me money.I began comparing Bowflex with other products, seriously evaluating them for suitability to my needs.All were unwieldy and quite heavy on the pocket.Some people I know already have them.I tried out the products to see what they can really do. It didn’t take long to realize that this equipment was not right for my routine, or needs.
Stores out, Internet in. I searched for 'resistance bands', at least to keep my muscles toned while seeking that elusive 'perfect product' for my own personal gym. Something called “Bodylastics - home gym exercise system,” was advertised.Clicking on the site, I was stumped.It was simply resistance bands! And they call that a whole system?Well... I thought there must be something there beyond what gets the eye.Must be, I thought, and began really examining the content of the site. Just as I was about to close the browser , I see the bold words: “Easy on the joints….makes the muscles work!"Exactly what I need! Yet, is that possible with just some resistance bands?
Still skeptical, but very curious, I keep reading.Over 140 gym exercises may be done with the exercise band, it said.It even showed demo pictures as proof. The best thing was it wasn’t a one size fits all product. The different system options provided 15-94 levels of tension. Perfect to gradually increase the difficulty of the workout, without buying additional weights.
I thought it was worth a 49.00 gamble. And add 95 cents for a single trial exercise. Well, $49.95 is only a small portion of what I paid as gym membership fees.Maybe I could save 20,000 dollars if the band was what I was forever seeking.
I have been using the Bodylastics exercise bands for three months now.And my conclusion can be summed up in one, single, quite common word: "WOW"!”
It is incredible how much results can be produced from a rather inexpensive product that is so small it can be hidden in a cabinet. I noticed a marked improvement in my tone, strength, and even lost unneeded weight and my joints didn’t hurt anymore.
Lifting weights can negatively afffect tendons and ligaments due to overstrain.But Bodylastics exercises do not stress joints, tendons and ligaments because there is no weight inertia created.Thus I can take my whole gym system along when I travels.I don't anymore budget gym fees now. The worthiest $50.00 that I ever spent!
