Work in progress

I was looking for exercise equipment to provide me with the capability to improve and maintain my physical strength needs. The adds for total gym seem to be the solution. After getting it and setting up, I am a little disappointed. I am 6'4" and a lot of the exercises are difficult to perform at my height. I am still adjusting to the equipment and hope to use it effectively going forward.

Never too old

This machine is a great way to get a workout. So far, I've just been doing things on my own, not as instructed, still I'm building up stamina after only 2 weeks. When I first watched the video, I could barely begin the warm-up exercises. Now I can do each one, although not the full length that the trainer does. I'm excited to continue my journey. On a side note, I'm a 66 year old male and I purchased this because I am going through radiation therapy for cancer and I was told that exercise was a great way to combat fatigue. So far, it's working.

First home gym

We are a family that gets regular exercise. We purchased this for our high school aged son to begin working out at home. Both he and his dad have used every other night following the detailed schedule. They have both enjoyed. Took around a half hour to assemble and this was a gift to our son. He is enjoying it and we are enjoying that he is learning about building muscle and exercising.

Outstanding Price

I bought this product 3 weeks ago and have not used each component added. So far my workout has been intense and productive. I really feel empowered to lose my weight. One exception the picture shown two leg cable and I only received one. I am reaching out now to Sams club for the second one. Despite the missing piece I feel this is money well spent in comparison to other sites advertising the total gym. I would have given 5 stars if two leg pieces arrived as shown on Sam’s site will correct to give stars when Sam rep responds and second leg piece is obtained

Worth the price.

This machine does it all if your willing to put in the time and effort. It comes with everything you need to get in shape and using your own body weight helps you not hurt yourself or over due it. For older people it's perfect on your joints. I recommend it.

Well built, steel construction

Excellent well built piece of exercise equipment. Lots of attachments that are easy to switch out with pull pin, except the dip bars. I had to tilt to the side to see where to place the pin. Lots of videos on YouTube to give you workout ideas. I highly recommend for strength training.

Worth the sweat!

Great workout with the Total Gym! I have been using it a week and going along with the DVD provided. You will feel it using many of the muscle groups you may have forgotten about. Looking forward to a noticeable improvement in the mirror and endurance.

It's Never Too Late!

I'm am very pleased and wish I had gotten this peace years ago. It's easy and you can work so many areas of the body by just repositioning yourself. I'm at the ripe age of 60 and this most certainly will help with stability; but the goal is weight reduction.

Very Happy With The Total Gym!

I debated on whether to buy a total gym but decided to give it a try and am so happy I did! I am very pleased with the quality of the machine for what I paid. After pricing at several other online sites, I decided this was the best value. The product arrived in the timeline promised and included all the attachments mentioned. The wing attachment with this unit is two pieces verses the one piece in the videos, but you can still do the exercises or do something similar. I have had this product for 3 weeks and have used it almost everyday. I am 50 and bought it to strengthen and tone and it is working! It also really engages your core which is a great benefit. I can exercise at my convenience which I love! My husband has been using it as well and likes it too. There is a learning curve to figuring out the attachments and the exercises you can do. The 2 DVDs are good but there are also a lot of videos you can watch online to get ideas. I am excited about this machine because I really feel like I will be using it for a long time!

Good Total Gym for a beginner

This item is not the latest and greatest Total Gym has to offer, however for a workout beginner it's a good place to start. Item is sturdy and well-made and will probably last many years. It is much heavier than I thought it would be. Not practical to fold it up after each use. You need a space where you can leave it set-up, which fortunately I have. The price at Sam's Club was excellent, the lowest I found anywhere while researching this. The DVD's provided are not for a beginner. The written material that comes with it does provide good guidance for a beginner.
