Total Gym

[num]

I just picked up a Total Gym off of craigslist for nearly nothing. We use one at pt, and the price was good enough that it'd be worth it even if I only used it for part of my pt routine, and it seems like I'd get use out of it aside from that. It didn't come with an exercise guide or dvd, but that shouldn't be much of an issue. At the moment I'm just planning to use it for upper body, aside from the pt exercise.

Any divas use it? How do you like it? Have any tips or favorite exercises?

num - I have had a TG for about 8 years and I LOVE IT!!! It works like magic when it comes to all over toning and strenghtening your core. I do a work out on it 3 times a week. I use a Weider machine for chest and arm work so I use the TG mostly for ab, legs, back and overall toning. It's amazing.

I've bought replacement parts from Huck https://www.huckproducts.com/index.shtml.

If you go to the TG site here https://www.totalgymdirect.com/ and look under exercise they show some of them there.

My favorite piece of equipment on it is the leg pulley system. It really tones and strenghens the legs - good for skiing!
