This rack is great.Has 7 posts for plate storage with PVC posts for easy removal of plates. The rack is very stable, unlike the previous rack I purchased (and returned) from TSA.

My only issue is that the bar holder's internal sleeve is a bit tight so I can't easily place & remove my curl bar but despite that is is worth the money.

Powertec P-LM Lat Machine Review

Powertec P-LM Lat Machine
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am over 50, with a history of lifting free weights.I wanted something I could use in the home primarily for maintenance.I am using it 3 to 4 times a week.

I considered the cheaper product, but purchased this unit instead, after a more thoughtful look.There are a couple of things I liked over the cheaper units.The way the base of the unit contacts the floor, makes it very stable.I do not use a lot of heavy weight, but the unit is very quiet. The seat swivels out of the way, making it easy to move from a pull down movement to a seated row.

Actually, I cannot understand how they can offer and build a unit this well made for the price.I am very pleased so far.Bear in mind I have only used it 5 or 6 weeks.

Product Description:
The Powertec P-LM sets new standards for performance with the smoothest lat machine available anywhere. Outfitted with a weight carriage that rides on nylon bushings for precise operation, the machine is about as smooth and quiet as it gets. As with most Powertec pieces, the floor tubing is elevated off the floor, providing a fully stable base with no lateral movement. Powertec also incorporates a unique swivel seat that pivots out of the way, so you can perform several different exercises with the necessary clearance. Most importantly, the lat machine works your upper back, lower back, triceps, and more, helping you develop an effective full-body workout. The P-LM measures 34 by 82 by 60 inches (W x H x D), offers a total weight capacity of 350 pounds, and carries the following warranties: lifetime on the frame, two years on component parts (such as bearings and spring pins), and one year on pads and grips.

This bench is completely stable and the correct dimension for work with dumbells. The manufacturers placed intelligently designed levers with which one can fold the legs in and out as well as great, protective, metal handles to move and to store it. It was also packaged very protectively.

Slendertone Women's System Abs Toning Belt Review

07:54, Posted by Mark J Patterson, No Comment

Slendertone Women's System Abs Toning Belt
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
First of all, I am a man, but since my waist is one size too small, I had to buy a women's size belt. I've had this product for about a month now. I had a flat abs before, but the definition was too shy to show. Now my friends said that the definitions are showing. I'd wear it when I walk/jog on the treadmill, lift weights, drive to/from work, average about an hour and a half each day. A friend of mine is going to buy a set. One thing you have to keep in mind though: I am fit, work out 4 times a week, have a carefully planned and balanced diet. I just wanted my abs to show the six-pack that I have worked so hard for.

Product Description:
Whether you're a casual exerciser, a senior, a fitness enthusiast, or someone facing physical challenges, the Slendertone System Abs Toning Belt for Women can help you build a stronger core foundation. Simply follow the 30-day toning plan for 30 minutes, five times a week to develop your abdominal strength and a firmer, tighter stomach. Discreet, comfortable and easy to use, the Slendertone System slimline belt enables you to build power abs anytime--at home, while working at the office, out the garden, etc.
The rechargeable, handheld System Controller plugs into the toning belt and displays information on toning programs, time and intensity all in the palm of your hand. It features seven toning programs, up to 99 intensity levels, and warm-up and cool-down phases. It's backed by a two-year warranty.
Slendertone uses clinically proven, patent-pending C.S.I. (Concentrated Slendertone Innervation) technology to firm, tone and strengthen your entire midsection with patented medical-grade muscle stimulation technology. Signals from the belt reach out to nerves where they are most concentrated. These nerves branch out to reach all the abdominal muscles (not just those under the pads) causing them to relax and contract naturally, exercising all the muscles at the same time.
Used regularly (as little as 30 minutes a day) in conjunction with a healthy diet and some moderate exercise, you will notice results within four weeks. You can wear the Slendertone System belt when you just don't have time in your hectic schedule to hit the gym or go for a run, or wear it during your workout for added emphasis.

Melt It Off 2lb Ball Kit Review

Melt It Off 2lb Ball Kit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
After trying several other workouts that do work(malibu pilates,mini stepper, Walk away the pounds{several dvds} and Denise Austin's core with stability ball) none have worked as fast or effective as promised. The Melt It Off Program does the exact opposite, everything you see in the infomercial is what you get. So seeing the Mitch Gaylord "Melt It Off" infomercial only ONCE I decided to try one more product and what really sold me was that the workouts burn up to 1000 calories per session and keep burning after you've finished. I've tried Walk Away The Pounds, and yes I am a huge fan of Leslie Sansone, her workouts are for those who are Beginning or those looking for a simple workout without impact yet get results. For me doing those took too long because I'm one of those that expects results quickly. Especially if that's what the case cover says. Anyway, I read several consumer reviews on the Melt it Off program and the only bad thing that came up was the company charging month after month for extras people didn't order. However I purchased directly from their site phone number anyway and heard over 10 "special offers". I was able to decline them so after ordering there wasn't a problem. I didn't pay for express shipping, only priority(2.99) to be sent out from the company. It took one day to process the order, 4 days to ship out and 1 day to receive the kit. In other program infomericals most say you can use their 6 day program to lose fast and up to 10lbs. Then you receive their product and it says not to do the express until you've done the regular program for a couple of weeks. The Melt It Off infomercial claims to have a 3 day kickstart && that is exactly the case. You can start immediately and it comes with a 3 day grocery list. Well I didn't start the eating plan yet but i did do the workouts. I didn't lose up to 5lbs, of course because i wasn't eating sensibly. However doing just the workouts (3days) i did lose about an inch and a 1/2 off my waist and hips so 3" total. Which are my major problem areas. This program comes with the 2lb G-ball 1 dvd that has 4 workouts on it. 10 minute, cardio burn and sculpt, sizzlin abs and high calorie melt. Also it comes with 2 booklets, one for the 3day kickstart and the other for the Melt It Off program that has a few pages for journaling your desire and motivation to start and where you want to be. Since i purchased from the site I received another free dvd "core complete, and 2 others (sizzlian buns and legs, cardio mix and melt) for 9.99 each (regularly $20 each bought separate). If the 2lb G-ball seems to low their site has the option to buy 4lb or 6lb. The workouts are not for those who are drastically out of shape, because although there is no machine or heavy equipment you use your entire body for all the workouts and some of the moves are intense and require coordination using the G-ball. However if you are anxious to lose and ready to do the work and able to do the work I HIGHLY suggest doing this program.

This is my first review. I just felt the need to tell people about this product. These things do NOT have any resistance. I think my 11 year old niece and do about 100 reps. I'll give it one star for comfort, but that's about it. I'm not even going to return them since shipping will eat half my cost away. Buy something else...

Just be sure to check the size that you want in addition to the weight. I forgot to check myself and ended up with a ball smaller than I had expected. But... fortunately it worked out better that I had received the smaller size because it was easier to use with the type of routines that I am doing. Product is perfect!
