Anyone ever heard of the total gym? I think thats what its called. Chuck Norris is in all the infomercials for it. Anyways, I was watching the info thing on it a while ago..and it said.. "Fact: Running 30 or more miles per week may not change your body composition." But then it said using the total gym for so many minutes a week would.... im like........... what the fuck is up with that? Well if you run 30 miles a week and eat 5 big macs a day, sure you won't change your body composition, but if you use the total gym and eat like shit it won't do anything either! Also.. have you noticed how they have pretty muscular guys on the info-mericals? I know these guys didn't get their bodies by using the "Total Gym." They probably got their bodies looking like that by using free weights, but they don't say that in the infomercials... dumb fuckers. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I was going to get one, but the workouts looked tough as hell!! I just use a torso track 3 times a week and put on serious mass quite easily.hehehe.......Those boneheads are so full of it.I bet the guys who do those infomercials never even touched the product they are endorsing until someone offerd them money to say it works. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

That is some funny shit! A coworker of mine just paid over a thousand bucks for a bowflex...I pay 30 bucks a month for gym membership and all the freeweights I can bang. He works out on the "bowflex" 2 hours a day..I work freeweights 1 hour every other day. Guess who's getting bigger? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Actually guys, they are partly right. I wouldn't touch one of those cheesy gimmicks, but the body adapts to aerobic activity in a relatively short time. It's a proven fact that high intensity circuit training etc. burns more calories. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Not much different than the muscle mags is it? Do you really think that Ronnie Coleman got to look like he does by taking XXX brand of protien? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

WEll use a little common sence guys, the total gym just came out resently and all the guys and girls that demo the product have exellent physics that took years to obtain, so its impossible for them to get it using the total gym cause the total gym just came out. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Here is the infomercial formula, OK?: 1)-When these are scheduled, are they scheduled around good TV shows or shows that losers, idiots, or people who stay at home with low self esteem watch. (Notice that you never see that crap on NBC primetime?) 2)-What time of day is it on? Is it on during soaps (where the perfect people live)? Is it on late at night when only jobless and depressed insomniacs are up? YES! I feel sorry for these people. They want to look and feel better buyt just don't know any better about how to do it right. And by the way - It won't happen overnight but you won't lose it overnight either. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I used to have that soloflex machine and it sucked. I think I used it a total of like 20 times then we sold it. The total gym would probably be the same thing. Use it a few times. Say to yourself. "Am I getting any benifit? No." Then junk the stupid thing. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

My Father actually bought that piece of shit. I tried it just for the hell of it. One of the major exercices you're suppose to do is the squat, but your only using like 70% of your own bodyweight, so squatting with no extra weight would be more difficult. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

LOL - something comes out every year that will make you look like Mr/Ms Olympia in just miutes a day. The even funnier thing is that thousands & thousands of people believe it and go out and by them. ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I saw another one a while ago. A new lung machine.. these women said they lost inches off their waist and legs and all this.. but u know the reason they lost inches was beacuse of their diet, not because of that dang machine. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

My favorite one is the one that is like a beeper and it makes you squeeze your abs when it vibrates...HOW THE FUCK WOULD THAT WORK?!?!?!? Bottom line...They're all BULLSHIT! ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Yeah they all suck, except for one product. It's the BODY BLADE, this thing kicks ass! Thousands of contractions per workout you just pick it up and jiggle it in and out and PRESTO you are big and ripped. I love it I have put on 30lbs of lean mass in the last 3 months training exclusively with the BODY BLADE!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I have a friend of a friend who used to room with that young guy on the old soloflex commercials. He said he never used one except to make the commercial. What a joke. ![]() ![]() ![]() |
