Little Tikes Junior Activity Gym
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Most crèches or children?s play areas seem to have one of these activity gyms and they looked bright and colourful so we decided to get one for my brothers first birthday.
The activity gym as shown in the picture is made up of four side panels, each with holes in for the child to climb through. There is a small bright pink slide and a blue floor, which the children can go under or climb on to go down the slide.
As we unpacked the activity gym it looked relatively simple to assemble, as it was really just a case of slotting the panels together but don?t be fooled! It was not at all easy to assemble although the only consolation is that if it was that difficult to put together its going to be near impossible for it to fall apart! The brightly...
Advantages: Great value for money, plenty of weights Disadvantages: Takes a while to build, inability to add additional weights
...In a bid to shift a bit of weight a few years back I joined a local gym. Initially, I only participated in cardio vascular exercise and made full use of the rowing machine, treadmills and exercise bikes.
The gym I was a member of was primarily a body building gym, which is to be expected since it is owned by a competitive body builder. It was inevitable that I would ?dabble? with the weights and over the year or so I was a member I learned a lot. I was shown what exercises to do for each major muscle group, the correct form and the correct weight to use.
When using weights safety is paramount and it is very easy to do yourself a serious injury. Even the seasoned body builders follow this rule. I used to cringe when I saw some of the new members arrive, set the weight really high and then proceed to perform the exercise with poor...
...I understand that I have written a very similar review to this one that is actually on working out, however I would just like to now write a review on choosing a gym - as you can, in fact work out anywhere (well, within reason as I doubt the manager at Tesco would be best pleased somehow!).
I have just changed gyms, I used to go to one that was on the outskirts of Plymouth (it was on the same site as the hospital that I worked in). This one I paid £27 a month for all in, so this was unlimited use of the actual gym in itself; the sauna or steam room (it was a case of either/ or for a week and then change but I never used them), and the classes that were on offer. You also got your own programme included should you wish, which I did as I had never been to a gym before. Just to mention, the £27 a month was a special rate for NHS staff...
Advantages: Easy to use, durable, visible results in a short time and Safe Disadvantages: Not easy to store away
...Firstly can i just say WOW! the iron gym is one of the best things i have bought this year!
JML Iron Gym comes with easy to assemble instructions and takes literally 5mins to assemble. Iron gym fits onto almost every door frame in the house and with its foam handles and contact points it leaves no marks, no damage and wont put stress on the door frame!
I have been using iron gym for about 3 months now and the results have been great i have put on 1 1/2 stone in muscle weight. The iron gym comes in an easy to carry box and as well as an ultra clear instruction manual that tells you how to use it, what types of exercises to do with it, how often to use it and it even has an information booklet about nutrition and what to eat to get the best results from using it.
The iron gym has one small flaw and that is that you cannot easily...

Review of JML Iron Gym
Advantages: Fun, entertaining, lasts years Disadvantages: Uses lots of batteries
...Little Tykes have really gone to town with this kiddies gym!
It has 5 different settings designed so that it will grow with the baby which is much better than all the other gyms I've seen in the shops which are just aimed at babies and don' progress yet are the same price as this one.
The five settings are:
A gym for tiny babies to kick at
A gym for babies to play with once they're sitting up
A play table suitable for babies who are able to stand up and walk around it
A play table with stool for a toddler to sit on
A writing table with stool for older toddlers.
It sounds like it might be complicated to swap from one setting to another but it's not at all! It's really simple all you have to do is change the green stool which converts to a kick plate for the babies by just unscrewing it which is really simple to do as you...
Advantages: Very well built, sturdy, uses own body weight Disadvantages: Quite heavy, big and bulky
...I have owned the Total Gym 1000, for about a year now. The reason why, is because I was channel shopping, and it looked good. It caught my eye, so I watched the programme, and then decided that for £150, you couldn't go wrong. I am a little impulsive like that.
You can do all sorts of exercises on it, so why bother paying to go to a gym, and use lots of machines, when this one does it all?
********************SETTING UP***********************
The setting up of this machine, is not terribly difficult, but it is a little tricky. Basically it all folds out, and fixes together, with really pick metal clips.
On removing it from the box, it is all flat packed. You need to take the sliding board aways, while you set up the frame. Then attatch the sliding board, on it's rollers.
It is quite difficult to explain, but it is fairly...

Review of Total Gym 1000
Advantages: None Disadvantages: You could quite easily end up in traction!!!!! Awful, disasterous etc etc
...it. Gold?s gym however are much better at pitching this product. Here?s what they have to say about it:
?Another great alternative to stressful crunches and strenuous sit-ups. Our smooth-gliding Exercise Wheel, built from sturdy plastic, will tighten and tone arms, abs, hips, buttocks and thighs?.
Features:
Contoured handgrips to provide a secure, comfortable grip.
Just push slowly and hold your position, before returning to the start position.
The forwards and backwards movement works your abs in both directions.
Stressful crunches and strenuous sit-ups? I hope they don?t use the same line when describing their abdominal roller which is designed to emulate just that!!! I?m also quite impressed by their claims that it will tone up your arms, abs, hips buttocks and thighs. Quite impressive, in fact I?m thinking about...
Advantages: Cheap, effective space saving solution for a home gym Disadvantages: You may get a few raised eyebrows if they don't know what it is!!!!
...Not sure why I keep writing so many fitness reviews, but I guess I should stick to what I know about (might make some of you get fit you never know!!). Having read through my reviews, I have noticed that I tend to have concentrated on kit that has not lived up to expectations. Well this time, I?m writing about a product that definitely exceeded my expectations, namely, the Pilates Power Gym.
WHAT IS IT?
Well to get an understanding of the Pilates gym, you need to know what pilates is:
?Pilates focuses on the core postural muscles which help keep the body balanced and which are essential to providing support for the spine. In particular, Pilates exercises teach awareness of breath and alignment of the spine, and aim to strengthen the deep torso muscles.?
Ok, so what makes it different from any other exercises? Well, its...

Review of Pilates Power Gym
...This book is called "Busy Babies Go To The Gym", I bought it along with several other books from the Book People a while ago. I can't actually remember what I paid for them but I think it worked out at around £1 a book. The normal RRP is £3.99. I like to be organised and have a selection of books to give as presents to friends children. The book is from a range by Practical Parenting.
Practical Parenting
=
Practical Parenting claim to be the UK's "most trusted and best read authority in all areas of pregnacy, birth, babies and preschoolers". They produce a monthly magazine which is full of advice and information for parents or parents to be. I did notice however it is slightly sexist as although it is called Practical Parenting it says that it helps solves all the worries and problems that a "mum or mum...
Advantages: entertaining, grows with child, fun Disadvantages: very light so baby can push it away
...This gym was bought for me as a present and it was a god send.
It says on the box from 3 months to 5 years and my baby started using it when she was 2 months and even then it was suitable.
I have friends who have other kinds of gyms and their babies get bored easily or the product isn't very easy to interact with but this one is brilliant.
It comes with five stages depending upon your child's development. These include:
Baby Gym
Chair and table
Chair and Easel
Chair and activity table
The activity table without chair so baby can stand and play.
It is very simple to put together and very light so easy to take apart and carry around/transport. it is also very easy to adjust into the different modes too by just simply turning the various parts.
The baby gym is what my daughter is currently using and as said previously...
