Hey guys, I was wondering if you can check out this new product, The akrowheels and tell me your thoughts...Has anyone used them? see them at www.akrosolutions.com . I appreciate any comments you can give. ...Anyway there are a ton of things you can do with them if you are creative..But I'm...

Here is how I see it. The posts here are divided. First, those who are pissed at this 'ball' work because it does not bring results. Second, those who say it does get results in isolated instances. The difference here is the reason for training. Most people HERE train for size, mass, and...

looks good to me

Hi guys, I was browsing the forum today and really think that this is a great informational site. Let me tell you a bit about myself. I have been a professional personal trainer (NASM certified), a competitive gymnast, a collegiate wrestler and diver, as well as some swimming and lacrosse...
