A great home multi gym

Advantages: Great value for money, plenty of weights
Disadvantages: Takes a while to build, inability to add additional weights

...use it would be. I had been looking at getting back to a gym but never got around to it. The decision was made to buy a multi-gym. ****Choosing the correct multi-gym*** There are many home multi-gyms in the market and I was at a total loss what to get. There are a few questions that need to be answered such as What are my goals? How much weight is required to achieve this? (determines the size of the weight stack) What exercises do I need to do to achieve my goals? How much am I willing to spend? How much room have I got available. Once the type of gym has been narrowed down it is then important to look at manufacturers, such as York, Weider, Marcy, Powerline, V-Fit to name but a few. I found this process an arduous task and decided to ask someone who knows. I discussed my requirements with a chap at Fitness Superstore who...

Advantages: LOOKS GREAT, GOOD WARRANTY, GOOD WEIGHT STACK

Tomy Multi-Gym Walker - Great Multifunctional Toy

Advantages: Sturdy, Bright, Multifunctional
Disadvantages: None

...Okay so my 1st Ciao product review ? so go easy on me! When my son was a couple of months old I started looking round for a baby-gym. I wanted something that had a little more than the seemingly standard pastel soft toys on and this seemed to fit the bill. Quite a few places stocked it for £17.99 but then I saw it on offer for £12.99 in Woolworths and couldn?t resist. However, I haven?t seen it for a while and am unsure if it has been discontinued in favour of the ?next-stage? multi-product. The product is advertised as a 6-1 toy, however the main uses are as a baby-gym and a walker ? the other uses are just a bit of a gimmick really. On opening the box the baby-gym was self-assembly, but this doesn?t require any special tools and is very straightforward ? taking only a few minutes. As a baby-gym it is a very good toy ? it...

Review of Tomy Multi-Gym Walker

Crunch not munch to better abs

Advantages: Prevents neck strain, better form
Disadvantages: Can be awkward to unfold

...Abs :~ Strong abs are essential for preventing lower back injuries, posture and good core stability. Just because you cannot see a six pack does not mean you do not have strong abs. Unless you go on a low fat diet and lose lots of body fat and exercise most people will never achieve that wash board stomach. This is what frustrates lots of people when doing loads of crunches because it does not matter if you do thousands a week if you have a layer of body fat you still will not get that 6 pack. What you should be thinking if you have strong abs and a strong back this will help prevent me from injury and back pain while playing sport, working and other activities. Weider Crunch Trainer :~ The crunch trainer aids you in doing crunches by helping you keep good form thus preventing injury to the neck and back. It also helps you...

Review of Weider Crunch Trainer

Exercise That's Bad For Your Health!!!!

Advantages: Whenever You Want It's There
Disadvantages: Hard To Assemble and Dangerous

...I am like most people in the fact I like to keep fit and look as good as I possibly can and to help me along with this I bought the Weider 8515 Multi Gym because of being at home with five children it can be very hard to find the time to get down to my local gym and at just £299.00 I thought I was really getting a good bargain. I ordered the Gym from a home shopping catalogue and was very disappointed at having to wait a whole 5 weeks for delivery but eventually it arrived. Below I will take you through my experience of this Gym in a step by step process and include all the features you need to know about it and what I found good and bad about it, this will hopefully provide you with enough information to make an informed purchasing decision. Setting Up -------------- The Gym itself arrived to me in what seemed like a hundred...

Review of Weider 8515 Crosstraining Gym

credit crunch?: A total waste of money

Advantages: It may give you the confidence to do the exercise
Disadvantages: Expensive gimmick, you don't need one to do the exercise intended

...I feel I'm being a bit negative today in my reviews of fitness equipment, but this is another needless piece of equipment that somehow has managed to find its way into every gym and home in Britain. Surely that means its doing its job well right? Well I fear its been marketed well as opposed to actually performing the task in hand as well as it says it does. My biggest problem here is the fact that the maker of the machine make outlandish comments about how you will end up with a washboard stomach etc etc etc Here's what they say...... The Weider Crunch Trainer has an ergonomic design which allows the correct and safest position for achieving washboard abs, allowing the user to perform the 'crunch', an essential exercise for toning the abdomen area. Its design positions the body to perform these exercises in a perfect manner...

Review of Weider Crunch Trainer

Practical and entertaining.

Advantages: It is six toys in one, as it grows with your child.
Disadvantages: Another toy that takes up space. Why are the good toys big? Not that I'm saying this is overbig, but is big enough.

Review of Weider Abdominal Crunch Trainer

It's a bit of a bug(ger)

Advantages: An entertaining read.
Disadvantages: Will not appeal to a larger readership

...This book is the twelfth book in the saga of Garrett. P.I. The fantasy detective in a magical city of TunFarie. To start some plot ideas. It is winter and the snow is lying heavily on the ground. Not many people are stirring so it should be an easy time for Garrett. But few people going about their normal business means that beer deliveries are also curtailed. And Garrett is running low. Trouble normally comes into Garrett's live when women call. This time there are four lovelies. One is Alyx Weider; another is Tinnie Tate, his current love interest. Alyx's father has Garrett on retainer for his brewing empire to cut down on any petty larceny. Alyx has a problem. It seems that her adoring father wants to indulge his daughter by building her a theatre to perform in, and incidentally sell some of his beer in. But there are...

Review of Cruel Zinc Melodies - Glen Cook

Spaced: The gretest comedy in recent years

Advantages: hilarious, brilliantly written, superbly directed, surreal, cult comedy
Disadvantages: only 2 series and only 7 episodes in a series

...Spaced is without doubt one of the funniest and most overlooked sitcoms of the last 10 years. One guarantee i can make without too much trepadation is that anyone between 20 and 35 will love this because it shows the life of a couple of lost 20 somethings not quite sure what to do with their lives and generally dealing with the difficulties of life, OK it is probably a bit weider than most of our lives but other than that it like watching a documentary. The story revolves around Tim Bisley (Simon Pegg) and Daisey Stiner (Jessica Stevenson) who pretend to be a professional couple in order to rent a flat. In essence the show is about them trying to live together, avoid doing work (in daisys case anyway) and attempt to avoid letting the landlady (Julia Deakin) find out that they are not actually a couple at all. To add to this trio is...
