Question: Should I Wear a Weight Vest for a Better Walking Workout?
Reader Susan writes: "I have come across some info on a weighted walking vest and wondered what you think. I was wondering about the pros and cons. It seems like a good idea."
Answer: Of all of the weights suggested for walkers, a weighted vest is probably the least likely to cause injury. The extra weight is carried where the body naturally adds on extra weight -- the torso, at the center of mass. You don't have the risk of repetitive motion injury and unnatural stress on the feet, arms or ankles you do with ankle weights or hand weights.
If you have any problems with your knees, ankles, feet, hips, it is better to weigh less when you walk, as each pound adds even more stress to those joints. If you have no aches or pains, I don't recommend against using a weighted vest, but I think there are better (or more useful) ways of achieving the same goals.

Theory #1: Burn More Calories

The more you weigh, the more calories you burn per mile. This is true, but the difference is small for any amount of weight you could comfortably add to your body. I'd rather not mess with adding weight to my body, I'd prefer to walk an extra minute to achieve the same effect. I usually wear a hydration backpack, carrying a couple of pounds of water and a couple of pounds of backpack, cell phone, wallet, etc. I don't do this to burn more calories, I carry it to have water and essentials with me on a walk of more than 30 minutes. However, a backpack has disadvantages -- the straps may be uncomfortable, and all of the weight is on your back unless you use the chest strap and belly strap to evenly distribute the weight to your hips rather than your shoulders.
Theory #2: Speed Training

A weighted vest is used in many sports for speed training. If you train with the vest, then compete without it, you will go faster. If you have already trained fully for speed and distance and achieved the best results you can, then this may be a way to get further increases in speed. But if you still have basic training to do for speed and distance, concentrate on that without adding weight.
How to Walk Faster
Walking Posture and Stride
Are You There Yet?

For most fitness walkers, I don't see a value in buying an expensive weighted vest. I'd prefer to see you walk an extra minute or two to gain the same calorie burn, or to improve your walking form so you are walking faster and packing more miles into the same time. Again, that means burning more total calories.
But You Really Want to Buy a Weight Vest

If you are still convinced this is the item for you, then be sure to try before you buy. The vest should fit well, not too tight and not loose. You don't want the weights to be swinging freely, adding strange side motions to your walking form. The weights should be evenly distributed around your torso. Look for a design in mesh or a sweat-wicking fabric with good air flow-through so you won't get sweaty and miserable. You should be able to easily add or subtract weights. The design should still work well with whatever kind of water carrier you use, if you are going to use it for walks over 30 minutes.

Horizon Elliptical Machines Provide a Total Body Workout

2011-05-02T11:35:00.000-07:00

Browse Elliptical Machines here

It seems that people keep getting busier and busier with demands coming from all aspects of our lives. Work, family, social and community commitments, health and wellness objectives all seem to need our daily or weekly attention. With minimal time, how can we get a total body workout efficiently? One solution to consider adding to your weekly fitness routine is elliptical machines.

Elliptical Machines- Exercise Efficiently

Elliptical machines allow users to work harder and faster than other more traditional workout routines. The result is more calories burned and tighter muscle tone in less time. For those who live with hectic schedules, which seems to be everyone in today’s world, 20-30 minutes on these machines could provide the answer to your fitness goals without a significant time investment.

Whether you are looking to add a piece of equipment to your home gym, or for a fresh new routine to add when visiting your local health and fitness club, elliptical machines may be your answer.

The Benefits of Low-Impact Cardiovascular Exercise

Elliptical machines have grown in popularity due to their low-impact, cross-fitness capacities. Users can attempt multiple programs and resistance levels, adding variety to their routines. Low-impact aerobic activities put less strain on the user’s lower body, resulting in less injury or pain to some athletes. Low-impact elliptical machines offer the same cardiovascular benefits as running or walking without the pressure or strain on the legs and feet.

Resistance Training- Improving Bone Strength and Density

As adults age, one common health issue that needs to be addressed is the loss of bone density, often resulting in issues with osteoporosis. Recent studies suggest that weight-bearing exercises are effective at increasing one’s bone density. As a result, adults who engage in this type of activity experience fewer incidents of bone loss and a lower prevalence of osteoporosis than those who only focus on cardiovascular exercises.

When the resistance functions of elliptical machines are utilized, your body will experience the result of improved strength and bone density. The result while it may not result in the same outcomes in terms of physical appearance as lifting free weights, your body’s overall muscle tone and bone density will improve.

Everyone can capture the benefits of elliptical machines. Individuals of any fitness level can add this form of exercise to their weekly routines, capturing the benefits of low-impact cardiovascular exercise and bone density in less time than more traditional fitness routines.

TESTIMONIALS
Just finished using it for the first time, bottom line, it works great. I use it for interval training in martial arts, very easy to use and change between exercises. Loud enough for me to hear when to change Thanks for your help.
-Matt

Man, this thing is perfect...I also like the fact that it counts "sets" as well...
good job! and thanks for your help!
-Mark

Happily, the good folks at Gymboss make an inexpensive timer expressly for this purpose.
Mine came in the mail after just a couple days, and it's perfect. It's twenty bucks, is about the size of a small pager, has just three buttons and is very simple to set up, and is configurable to just about any workout via these options:
- You can set it to countdown once, and then repeat each time you press a button, or set it to automatically repeat without pressing anything.
- You can set a single interval to repeat, or dual intervals of different lengths (so you can set a work interval, and a rest interval of a different time).
- Intervals can be set down to the second.
- The alarm can be either a soft beep, a loud beep, a vibration, or any combination of beeping and vibrating.
- The alarm can further be set to go off for one second or ten seconds.
Furthermore, in "repeat" mode the timer will tell you how many intervals you've completed! There's nothing like the right tool for the job, and this is the right tool.

Prior to the Gymboss I was using my Timex Ironman Triathlon to time my rounds and my Tabata workouts. The main problems where:

- the watch has no vibrate mode so I could not be used in a group class. It was also very hard to hear the beeps over my headphones when working out with my iPod.

- the watch was sometimes hard to wear with bag gloves. Now I can simply clip the Gymboss on my waist band. I can even clip it directly on the Obi (the belt of the Karate Gi or uniform).

Thanks again for this simple product making my life better.

I bought my Gymboss at the Arnold to deal with a workout
partner that talks more than he lifts. The Gymboss is perfect. No need to be rude with this in the gym.
Thanks a lot!

Just wanted to let you know how pleased I am with my recent purchase of my Gymboss Timer! I have been using it recently for interval training of both jump roping, and heavy bag boxing workouts. It is very easy to use. The dual timers are terrific and much better than a standard countdown time. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to have an accurate and productive workout.
Best regards,
Scott

WOW WOW WOW!!! I absolutely LOVE the timer. It is EXACTLY what I have been looking for!
-Dan

Received today! Wow what service!!! Used it already and it is excellent!!!!!Rarely am I impressed with stuff but this is one neat piece of kit!!
Thanks so much,
-Steve

I received my Gymboss timer today and it is excellent! Smaller than I thought it would be (that's a good thing)! Easy to use, small, versatile, and ready to go whenever you are.
Thank you,
-James

I just want to tell you how pleased I am with this Gymboss. I never thought I'd be so proud of something so small :) It's perfect! At first I found myself thinking..."Well if it only had this, or that" but the reality is that it does
"Exactly" what it's supposed to do - time intervals. I run 3 minutes then walk 3 minutes in Dual mode. I stretch each muscle for one minute in Single mode. I circuit train with a heavy bag, punch some - rest some. I circuit train with
weights and machines to specific intervals - The Bruce Lee Workout - and with precise control of time I know I'm getting a full dose of each segment. OK I could go on but I'll stop here. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! You have a very useful product that I plan on using the rest of my life so don't go anywhere!
-Curtis

Got the boss over the weekend and I absolutely love it. I use it for Tabata as it is a great solution to the timing problem. Love the price, too.
-Judd

I received my GYMBOSS Timer yesterday and used it this morning. I love it!
I like using the Tabata method of training and finally both my workout partner and I could actually train at the same time without one of us having to wait while watching the clock and calling out times for the other. The dual alarm was loud enough for both of us to hear it so we could stay focused on our work and not the clock. This is really going to improve the efficiency of our workouts. Great product!
-Steve

For a long time I have been looking for a simple timer for working out in rounds. You would think this to be a simple task, right?
Wrong. I have had a very hard time finding something simple to count rounds for me. In my numerous trips to the mall and sports stores all I could ever find were stop watches, cooking timers, or full fledged commercial gym timers. It would be pretty sweet to own a real boxing / kickboxing gym timer. With those timers you can adjust the round duration (usually 2 min. or 3 min.) and rest period (30 sec. or 1 min.). You also get a warning near the end of the round and a bell to signify the beginning and end of each round. Some even have red, yellow, and green lights to signify which period you are in.

Wow, that sounds great! Why didn't I just buy one of them? Well, one of these babies will cost about $150 - give or take a few. I am not willing to spend that kind of money on a timer until I own my own commercial gym. That is the reason I have been searching for a more simple timer - because something simple should theoretically cost less. After some more searching I found some simple round timers meant for boxing and martial arts on eBay. Still, these came with quite a price tag,
anywhere from $60 - $100.

Finally, I found the GYMBOSS timer. This timer is exactly what I was looking for. It is small, easy to program, has the features I need, and is inexpensive at $19.95 USD.
-Rob

Received the timer last week and it works great. The setup is easier than I thought it would be. I plan to use mostly for Tabata and that seems to set up just fine. I am a CrossFit person so this is just what I have been looking for.
Thanks,
Kath

I used the timer today. It was great! It helped me use
my time more efficiently and also intensified my work out by limiting the amount of break I had.

The Gymboss rocks. Seriously. Get one. I've known about this thing for a year and can't believe I didn't snag one before. Incredibly useful, and much better than a watch with an alarm and an iPod with timed MP3s. I've used both, and there's just no comparison.

I can now also be much more accurate with determining work/rest periods, as well as how many sets and/or rounds my clients and Officer Candidates have done during training and PT sessions.

RS100 Heart Rate Monitor
For beginners who want basic heart rate and timing features.* Helps improve your fitness with personal heart rate target zones* Displays calories burned* Comes with comfortable textile transmitter and coded heart rate transmission to avoid cross-talkBody measurement features* Automatic age-based target zone – bpm / %To help you train safely and effectively, the training computer determines your heart rate target zone limits automatically according to your age-based maximum heart rate (220 minus age). The limits are determined either in beats per minute (bpm), as a percentage (%) of your maximum heart rate, or as a heart rate reserve (% HRR). See also Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) and Manual target zone.* Average and maximum heart rate of each lap* Average and maximum heart rate of training* Heart rate – bpm / %Heart rate is the measurement of the work your heart does. Heart rate can be expressed as the number of beats per minute or as percentage of your maximum heart rate. Heart rate can also be expressed as a percentage of your heart rate reserve, meaning the difference between your resting heart rate and maximum heart rate (HRR = HRmax - HRrest). In Polar software or during strength training, heart rate can be displayed as a graphical trend.* HR-based target zones with visual and audible alarmYou can define your target zones for a training session based on heart rate to help define the right intensity. When you are out of the preset zones, the training computer will give a visual and audible alarm.* HRmax (age-based)The highest number of heart beats per minute (bpm) during maximum physical exertion. For a rough estimate of your maximum heart rate, subtract your age from 220. HRmax is a useful tool for determining the intensity of training as intensity zones can be defined using HRmax. Some Polar products define maximum heart rate during the Polar Fitness Test, see also HRmax (Polar Fitness Test -based).* Manual target zone – bpm / %This feature enables you to define the target zone as you want and is suitable for your training. You can set the target zone for your training as beats per minute (bpm), as a percentage of your maximum heart rate, or as a percentage of your heart rate reserve (HRR%).* Polar OwnCal® – calorie expenditurePolar OwnCal calculates the number of kilocalories expended during training. This feature allows you to follow the kilocalories expended during one training session and cumulative kilocalories expended during several training sessions. Some Polar products also estimate the fat-burning percentage (fat% on display), that is, kilocalories expended from fat during a workout which is expressed as a percentage of the total kilocalories burned.* Polar OwnCode® (5kHz) – coded transmissionCoded heart rate transmission automatically locks in a code to transmit your heart rate to the training computer. The training computer picks up your heart rate from your transmitter only. Coding prevents interference from other training computers.* Polar OwnZone® – personal heart rate zonePolar OwnZone® determines your personal heart rate limits for a training session. Depending on the day and time, your physical state may vary, for instance, if you are stressed or tired, or if you are not fully recovered from your latest training session, Polar can determine that information from your heart rate and guide you to your ideal training zone for that moment.Data transfer* Edit wrist unit settings with Polar UpLink Tool and transfer them to your Polar product (UpLink)Recording features* TotalsTotals includes your training data starting from the last reset enabling you to follow your long-term training.* Training files (with summaries) – 1Training features* HeartTouch – button-free operation of wrist unitWhen HeartTouch is on, different training information during training can be accessed without pressing buttons, for instance, when gloves make pressing buttons difficult, by bringing your training computer close to your transmitter.* Number of laps – 99* User configurable displays – top lineThis feature allows you to configure training computer displays to show the information that you need during your training session.

Vibration Machines Review : power plate my3, Frequency 30, Power plate my5, Frequency 50

Reviews and comparisons:

Vibration Machines! As seen on The Tyra Banks Show and The Doctors TV Show. Madonna, Claudia Schiffer, Elle Macpherson and Kylie Minogue swear by these machines!
The plate uses vibrations to make muscles contract and relax up to 50 times a second. Along with a calorie-controlled diet, the European Congress on Obesity in Amsterdam found it to be 2.7 times more successful at achieving long-term weight loss than conventional workouts.
Compare Vibration Machines
We are going to compare Vibration Machines that are available for purchase in Canada. There are two classes of Vibration Machines: Residential and Commercial / High End Residential. For each class, we will take a look at three popular brands.

Different Types of Vibration Machines
Tri-Planar Vibration
Oscillation
WHICH ONE IS BETTER?
Tri-Planar machines do not have a center fulcrum point like the oscillating machines they do not wobble from side to side. The plate of a tri-planar machine moves up and down, side to side and front to back all at the same time. This three dimensional range of movement is where the term tri-planar originates. These machines typically have lower amplitudes but higher frequencies. The differences in the two types allow the tri-planar machines to be more effective at increasing muscle strength, increasing bone density and for detoxification.

What is Vibration Training?
Vibration training has been around since the 1960’s. The actual technical term that physiologists use to explain “cyclical vibrations” that are used to better the state of human joints by improving their flexibility relatively fast is Rhythmic Neuromuscular Stimulation, or RNS.

History of Vibration Technology
The Russian space program developed the Vibration plate to contra negative side effects after a prolonged trip in outer space. The muscle tissue of the cosmonauts had deteriorated considerably, causing a reduction in bone density (osteoporosis). The platform generates vibrations at selected Hz, which is then transferred to the body, causing the muscles to contract in a reflex, tremendously stimulating blood circulation.
Muscle Strengthening
What helps one move is the formation of our bones. The system responsible for all our muscles is the central nervous system. Vibration provides pulses which make every one of your muscles respond in a certain way to a selected frequency.
Say you choose the setting of the vibration plate that pulses at 40Hz. This means that your muscles will be forced to contract about 40 times in each second, or, in other words, 2400 times each minute! These incredibly fast movements allow your body to spend enormous amounts of heat and energy.
We all know that burning energy helps with weight loss. This fitness program also helps to increase your muscle strength and provide a clear definition for your muscles, as well as improve your overall athletic capabilities.
Increased Blood Circulation and Improves Flexibility
When muscles are trained through vibration exercise, they do not only get stronger, but also improve their flexibility and increase their mobility.
When you use vibration exercises, the muscle tissues in your body warm up and thus increase circulation of blood. This ensures that the muscles get more flexible. When your muscles receive highly oxygenated blood, the time one requires to stretch to obtain a certain level of flexibility is drastically decreased.
Having a high level of oxygen in your blood is beneficial in more than one way. It also helps detoxify your body in a very efficient way. All the negative substances that accumulate in your body and cause it to ache are more easily removed. In terms of flexibility, it means that the pain will occur at a later time when stretching, helping achieve much better results.
Performance:
In just 10 minutes a day you can greatly enhance your physical performance by training on a vibration machine. few studies were conducted and proved that just 10 minutes of effortless vibration training had similar results on athlete’s bodies as over 100 leg presses with weight load of more than twice the body mass! You could complete about 200 drop jumps from a height of over 50cm, or achieve same results from standing on a vibrating platform for about 10 minutes.
Boosts hormonal profile:
Helps boost hormone level in brain by intensifying the signals that are obtained by the central nervous system, Makes your brain stronger etc.
Rehabilitation:
Helps with Sports injuries, strengthens muscles, improves balance
Heart Conditions:
Studies had shown that vibration training could be of use to help patients rehabilitate after a stroke. Patients with heart conditions suffer from decreased mobility and balance difficulties.

What is a Kettlebell?
The kettlebell or girya (Russian: гиря) is a cast iron weight looking somewhat like a cannonball with a single looped handle on top. Although this piece of strength training equipment has been around for decades, only recently has it caught the attention of mainstream athletes. While today, there are sizes that range from 5 lbs to 175 lbs, the traditional Russian kettlebell is usually one which weighs 1 Pood (roughly 16kg / 35lbs). Kettlebells are a favorite item in many gyms, along with some other basic training items like weighted medicine balls, pull up bars, jump ropes and lots of free weights.
What's So Great About Kettlebells?
The reason for the boost in kettlebell training it that it gets back to basic training that requires functional, whole body fitness. Kettlebells require an athlete to focus on whole-body conditioning because lifting and controlling a kettlebell forces the entire body, and specifically the core, to contract as a group, building both strength and stability at the same time. Kettlebell workouts engage multiple muscle groups at once. In this way, they are a great option for getting a whole body workout in a short time.
Unlike traditional dumbbells, the kettlebell's center of mass is extended beyond the hand. This allows for swing movements not possible with traditional dumbbells. Because more muscle groups are utilized in the swinging and movement of a kettlebell than during the lifting of dumbbells, a kettlebell workout is said to be more effective, and yields better results in less time.
Because the center of mass on a kettlebell "swings", micro-muscles are needed to balance a kettlebell, more so than a dumbbell. The existence of a handle allows for "release moves" which are not available to a dumbbell.
Kettlebell Training
If you want to maximize a kettlebell workout, get a good instructional DVD such as the KettleWorx series or Kettlebell Bootcamp.

Kettlebell Safety
It's important to start slow and get some training when using kettlebells. When used incorrectly, kettlebells can cause some nasty injuries. Proper use of this cast iron weight requires strength, coordination and lots of practice with a light weight before increasing weight. Each kettlebell exercise involves multiple joints and many muscle groups working together. It takes most athletes time to adjust to these new movement patterns that are often different than traditional weight-lifting moves. To master these movement patterns requires guidance, instruction and patience. After the basics are mastered, increasing the weight provides a strength workout unmatched by machines or even dumbbells.
The biggest mistake beginners make is lifting too heavy a kettlebell before they can control it. This can result in serious injuries to the joints, and especially the neck, back and spine.

P90X Testimonials / Success Stories
Jon C. - "I've never gotten so many comments from so many people about how fit I look."
Anthony L. - "I went to the gym trying to lift weights; couldn't do it. Saw people there that were more fit than me. That was very discouraging itself, so I just went home. I end up Googling 'how to get fit,' and I see a lot of people on YouTube. Reading people's feedback when they tried P90X, not one, zero, zero negative feedback about P90X. Just watching those videos, I was like, I gotta do it. I want to do it. Just seeing them makes me want to work out. But when I first started, I couldn't do nothing. P90X, they laid it out for me and made it very simple. Here's an analogy: it's like how to work a computer for dummies. All you have to do is Push Play, follow the nutrition guides, and you're good."
Bill S. - "Before P90X, I couldn't do any pull-ups. I was out mountain biking one day and went over a ramp, and the trajectory flipped me over backwards and broke my neck. When I heard the snap, I thought I was gonna be in a wheelchair for the rest of my life. After the surgery, they put titanium rods in my neck, and the insurance company told the physical therapy people that they don't cover physical therapy. And it was at that point my girlfriend Lisa, she said, 'Well, I'm doing these videos. Maybe you can just do these videos and get your strength back.' Tony, the trainer, just makes it fun, keeps you going. Once you push the play button, the workouts just fly . . . People look at me and they can't believe that this body is 56 years old. And I love it; it's great. Thank you, Tony. Thank you, P90X."
Chuck M. - "In the spring of '07, I started to have chest pains. I decided to go to see the doctor. I had a clogged artery in my left descending coronary artery. And I had stent surgery at that time. And it was just a stroke of luck . . . that I ran into Brad, and he told me about P90X. I said, 'Does it work?' And he showed me his abs, and he says, 'Yeah, it works. Check this out.' I go, 'Wow, that's pretty cool.' And then I tried it, and look, now I have abs too! I couldn't believe all the different types of exercises you could do, plus stretching and yoga, core work. I knew that this was the workout for me. First I was exhausted; I definitely had to get used to it, but it didn't take too long. If you follow the diet guide, if you follow the program, you Push Play every day, you will get results, guaranteed."
Jody B. - "Before starting the P90X program, I was extremely lazy. It really didn't dawn on me that I had a problem until I heard about a rumor that was going around about me that I must be pregnant. I of course was not pregnant, and it was a very hard blow. Right around that time is when my husband started watching the P90X infomercial . . . It's a money-back guarantee, so we went ahead and decided to order it. And I gotta tell ya, it's the best thing that we've ever done . . . I started seeing my results around the 30-day mark. My pants were about an inch to two inches too big. Then I saw greater results at 60 days, and then I was just blown away by my 90-day results. I could not believe what I was seeing, from day 1 compared to day 90 . . . It's a lifetime change for me. I'm not gonna quit. I'm gonna stick with it. I love the results, and I'm never going back to that person that I was before."
Matt B. - "I looked at some pictures one day of me and my son, out in the swimming pool and was just absolutely disgusted by what I saw. I told myself I wasn't gonna be that dad. And you know the one I'm talking about, the one that's out of shape, sitting on the sidelines at his kid's sporting events yelling at him and telling him he needs to run hard, when in fact he gets out of shape going to the refrigerator to restock his beer. At that point, I decided to make P90X the choice for me. And it was a choice that I wish I had made much, much sooner. The workouts are so fun, and you start to see your results so quickly that those 90 days, they just fly by. Another thing that really turned me on about the P90X system was the fact that I could do it in the privacy of my own house. You know, at 212 pounds and 33% body fat, the last thing I wanted to do was be huffing and puffing around the gym . . . I'd just come home from work, pop in the video, go to town. And as a result, I dropped 18 pounds in just the first 30 days with P90X. Day 1, I was 212 pounds and 33% body fat. When I finished, I was down to 173 and 7-1/2% body fat. And I know you've heard this a thousand times, but you know, it worked for me, it can work for you."
Michele R. - "I am the happy mother of seven wonderful kids. Yes, I mean, this stomach has been stretched out to here seven times. And having that many pregnancies was really hard on my body. Now I hadn't taken good care of myself in years. Sitting up that night, I came across the P90X infomercial again. I realized that I was watching the same infomercial for the third time, and I decided that if I had time to sit and do that, then I had some time to exercise. I love P90X. The workouts are so varied. Every day, I get to do something different . . . And Tony is such a great trainer. He talks you through everything. He helps you modify the moves if you're not up to them yet. He motivates you and challenges you to just do your best. I have to admit I wasn't really excited about changing my diet, but I found that following the nutrition plan was so much easier than what I thought it was gonna be. When I started working my body harder, it started asking me for better things to eat. And changing my diet really became more of a natural transition . . . Ladies, don't be afraid of muscle. If you want a youthful shape that fights gravity and burns extra calories 24/7, you need to build muscle. That's what's gonna do it for you."
Rob S. - "Five years ago when I met my wife, I was 225 and I gained a little happy weight over the first 3, 4 years of our marriage and got up to about 250, the biggest I had ever been . . . Me as a guy, the last thing ever I thought I would be doing is sitting in my living room, working out in front of a TV. It's just something I always saw my mom or my sister doing aerobics. And it's amazing. I'm sitting here working in front of the TV and I don't feel funny . . . I've got a great personal trainer, just right there, telling me what moves to do, when to do 'em, how to do 'em, and just guide me through a process. And all you have to do is just follow it . . . It's not easy by any means, but if you commit to it, the way that you feel after each workout is amazing 'cause you feel like you've just conquered the world, and you're excited to even go back and do it the next time . . . You want this, so get it done."
Tommy M. - "When you see P90X on an infomercial, you know, you're seeing guys that are reasonably healthy get really ripped, and they do it in 90 days. And when you're a fat guy, you're looking at this thing and you're thinking, there is no way. And what you don't realize is that it's ok to modify. It's ok to not keep up with the people in the video. The first time I did a video, I couldn't do 20% of what they were doing. But Tony says, 'Do your best and forget the rest.' And whatever my best was that day, whatever I was capable of, whether it was doing eight push-ups for my knees and then taking the last 30 seconds off, that's what I did. And I could struggle as much as I wanted to in my own living room; nobody's watching . . . In 30 days, I lost like 17 pounds, 60 days I'd lost 35 pounds, and after 90 days, I lost 47 pounds. That's like a pound every 2 days. Why stop? There's no reason to stop. I don't call it P90X—I call it P-Lifetime-X."
Demi B. - "I had my first child in 2002, and I was in the Marine Corps at that time. They give you about 6 weeks to get back into shape, and I was pretty much forced into getting back into shape really quick. Fast-forward 7 years later, I'm pregnant with my second child. I'm not in the Marine Corps anymore, and so I don't have that extra push, so I go back to the gym, still was not seeing any results whatsoever. I was depressed; I was just angry at myself. Things were just different. Late one night, I saw the infomercial for P90X, and I knew that from my past history of training in the Marine Corps that this would be perfect for me. My husband told me, you know, we can do this as long as we can cancel our gym memberships, and so we said sayonara to over $200 a month in gym memberships. I love the intensity that it brought. It was simple yet it had a science to it with this Muscle Confusion . . . Before I started P90X, I was about 160, 150. I am 5'4" tall, so that was a little bit 'pleasantly plump' for me . . . Now, I'm 5'4" still, and I weigh about 120 to 125 . . . And I've seriously never looked this way before, ever."

Question: Should I Wear a Weight Vest for a Better Walking Workout?Reader Susan writes: "I have come across some info on a weighted walking vest and wondered what you think. I was wondering about the pros and cons. It seems like a good idea."Answer: Of all of the weights suggested for walkers, a weighted vest is probably the least likely to cause injury. The extra weight is carried where the body naturally adds on extra weight -- the torso, at the center of mass. You don't have the risk of repetitive motion injury and unnatural stress on the feet, arms or ankles you do with ankle weights or hand weights.If you have any problems with your knees, ankles, feet, hips, it is better to weigh less when you walk, as each pound adds even more stress to those joints. If you have no aches or pains, I don't recommend against using a weighted vest, but I think there are better (or more useful) ways of achieving the same goals.Theory #1: Burn More CaloriesThe more you weigh, the more calories you burn per mile. This is true, but the difference is small for any amount of weight you could comfortably add to your body. I'd rather not mess with adding weight to my body, I'd prefer to walk an extra minute to achieve the same effect. I usually wear a hydration backpack, carrying a couple of pounds of water and a couple of pounds of backpack, cell phone, wallet, etc. I don't do this to burn more calories, I carry it to have water and essentials with me on a walk of more than 30 minutes. However, a backpack has disadvantages -- the straps may be uncomfortable, and all of the weight is on your back unless you use the chest strap and belly strap to evenly distribute the weight to your hips rather than your shoulders.Theory #2: Speed TrainingA weighted vest is used in many sports for speed training. If you train with the vest, then compete without it, you will go faster. If you have already trained fully for speed and distance and achieved the best results you can, then this may be a way to get further increases in speed. But if you still have basic training to do for speed and distance, concentrate on that without adding weight.How to Walk FasterWalking Posture and StrideAre You There Yet?For most fitness walkers, I don't see a value in buying an expensive weighted vest. I'd prefer to see you walk an extra minute or two to gain the same calorie burn, or to improve your walking form so you are walking faster and packing more miles into the same time. Again, that means burning more total calories.But You Really Want to Buy a Weight VestIf you are still convinced this is the item for you, then be sure to try before you buy. The vest should fit well, not too tight and not loose. You don't want the weights to be swinging freely, adding strange side motions to your walking form. The weights should be evenly distributed around your torso. Look for a design in mesh or a sweat-wicking fabric with good air flow-through so you won't get sweaty and miserable. You should be able to easily add or subtract weights. The design should still work well with whatever kind of water carrier you use, if you are going to use it for walks over 30 minutes.

The "basic" step involves stepping first one foot then the other on top of the step and then stepping the first foot and then the other back to the floor. A "right basic" would involve stepping right foot up, then the left, then returning to the floor alternating right then left.Many instructors of step will switch immediately between different moves, for example between a right basic and a left basic without any intervening moves, forcing people to "tap" their foot instead of shifting weight. However, one form of step is called tap-free or smooth step in which feet always alternate without the ambiguous "taps" that can make learning step difficult for beginners. This requires a bit of foresight and planning by the instructor in order to insert a transitional or switching move that maintains the natural alternating weight shift akin to walking. For example, from a series of right basics one may insert a "knee up" (which involves stepping up and lifting the knee and returning the lifted leg to the ground, thereby switching feet) and then continuing to a left basic. However, this requires planning and the extra beats required for the transition move.Common Moves include:Basic StepCorner kneeRepeater kneeT-StepOver-the-TopLungesV-StepStraddle DownL-StepSplit StepI-Step

Summary of Foam Rollers:
Foam rollers offer many of the same benefits as a sports massage, without the big price tag.The foam roller not only stretches muscles and tendons but it also breaks down soft tissue adhesions and scar tissue. By using your own body weight and a cylindrical foam roller you can perform a self-massage or myofascial release, break up trigger points, and soothe tight fascia while increasing blood flow and circulation to the soft tissues.How It WorksThe superficial fascia is a soft connective tissue located just below the skin. It wraps and connects the muscles, bones, nerves and blood vessels of the body. Together, muscle and fascia make up what is called the myofascia system. For various reasons including disuse, not enough stretching, or injuries, the fascia and the underlying muscle tissue can become stuck together. This is called an adhesion and it results in restricted muscle movement. It also causes pain, soreness and reduced flexibility or range of motion.Myofascial release is a body work technique in which a practitioner uses gentle, sustained pressure on the soft tissues while applying traction to the fascia. This technique results in softening and lengthening (release) of the fascia and breaking down scar tissue or adhesions between skin, muscles and bones.Myofascial release has also been shown to relieve various muscle and joint pains such as IT band syndrome and shin splints as well as improving flexibility and range of motion.Foam rollers are inexpensive and with a bit of experimentation you can target just about any muscle group.Shop for a Foam Roller

Success stories:
So I just got out of the Army and headed back to home sweet home in the country. I was going to the gym everyday in the Army but now the nearest gym is 45 minutes away. So I seen the Tower 200 on t.v. and decided I like the price, I should give it a try. So I get it and I’m watching the dvd and I‘m laughing thinking I'll just do the whole dvd at once. You know thinking I'm a real badass and all. Yeah well I just made it through the 11 minute workout and I’m done. The tower 200 just kicked my ass. So even though I haven’t gained 10 lbs of muscle yet, I’m sure I will pretty quick. The success in this story is that I got my gym now. It’s hanging from my closet door. Thanks Body by Jake. P.S. Randy your the champ and always will be in my eyes and all my buddies!!!"Billy – McArthur, OH"Well I would tell you, the Body by Jake Tower 200 works. I've been working out for more than 25 years and tried everything (machines/weights). I will say this - you get more tension and growth faster because of the constant resistance. It is everything and more that the advertising says, and is worth the money. You have less stress on your bones and tendons, no changing plates and the 11 minute per day absolutely is a hard workout if you apply yourself. I get size, tightness, strength and cardio all at once. There’s an imitator out now by Weider…remember you get what you pay for. I'm extremely happy and will order the accessories. Thank you Body By Jake. "Robert – Macon, GA"When I work out with the Tower 200, because of the way it is designed and the flexion in the bands, I can do about anything imaginable. My most appreciated results come from the full range of motion I can achieve with appropriate resistance all thru the range of motion, with arms or legs, standing or sitting…there is more resistance than I can imagine ever needing. I would like to extend my full appreciation to Jake, the Tower 200, and others that developed the Tower 200."Terry – Russellville, AR"You see so many commercials that try an lure you into buying products that don’t work. The Tower 200 will explode your workout routine. You will be able to train harder, get faster and get stronger every day. I never had any doubts since I got it. I can’t wait to show off my body for the summer! So do yourself a favor and order one!"Casey, Canton Ohio"My challenge and workout plan was to maintain my current weight of 200 pounds but lose body fat. I was at 17% and after working out for 10 - 30 mins. a day, five days a week, for 2 months; I am down to 195 and 13% body fat – a noticeable change and my stamina has increased by leaps and bounds. If you want a product that works, is compact, and demands you to push yourself; then I fully back and endorse the Body by Jake Tower 200."Justin – Fort Bragg, NC"The Tower 200 is the best, most affordable piece of workout equipment I ever bought, and that’s saying a lot because I invested in all kinds of fitness equipment. I'm the army and I also travel a lot, so the Tower 200 is so convenient for me to use – when I get off work I get right on the Tower 200 and go to work. I used to plan hotel stays around being close to a gym but now I don’t worry bout that cuz I pack my Tower 200 in my trunk and set it up in the hotel and never lose a work out day….I love the Tower 200 and it goes wherever I go and that’s real talk."

The revolutionary Ab Coaster puts you on the fast track to great abs.

Just kneel on the comfortable carriage and pull your knees up. As you lift, the knee carriage glides along the biometrically designed curved track, engaging your lower abs first, then the middle and upper region, giving you a complete abdominal workout. The device also promotes core stabilization by isolating the abdominal region and virtually eliminating any hip flexor involvement.The Ab Coaster keeps you in perfect form and makes it easy for anyone, regardless of fitness level, to exercise their entire abdominal regions correctly and effectively every time without straining their necks or lower backs. The Ab Coaster also features a multi-angle adjustable seat to help you work your love handles and plate-loading posts to add extra weights for advanced users.

Afg 5.0 treadmill

The Afg 5.0 treadmill is a complete machine for all different types of users. Its extra comfortable for walking, with its orthopedic belt and extra long for people who are into heavy running. You can find the AFG 5.0 treadmill for about $2000, which is a phenomenal deal. Comparing it to other treadmills that will provide the same features as the AFG 5.0, you will have to spend around the $3000 price point. Some products that are out there which it can be compared to (spec wise), is the Vision 9550 Deluxe treadmill which sells for about $2800, or the PaceMaster Gold Elite Fold Up VR, which sells for about $2688.00, or even the Life Fitness F3 Advanced which sells for about $3000.00. Not only are going to pay for a similar machine, but you are not even getting the same warranty. The Afg 5.0 provides you with a bumper to bumper warranty for 5 years on parts and labour (Lifetime Frame and motor) at no extra charge.

On top of everything else, it also provides you with an entertainment system (IPod docking station) so you can listen to your music while enjoying your workout. Usually manufacturers put cheap components inside the machine for additional features, but AFG fitness have gone all out with the IPod docking station and Pioneer Speakers for your entertainment.

And we cater for all levels of fitness by offering a comprehensive product range, along with essential support and advice. Everything from improving an athlete’s sports performance to helping people enjoy a healthier lifestyle, and aiding rehabilitation and weight management.
This desire to be the best is made possible by ambitious and highly talented professionals who still believe as passionately in what we do today, as we did over 30 years ago. And our success is clear to see. Today, Polar employs 1200 people worldwide, has 26 subsidiaries globally and manages a distribution network supplying over 35,000 retail outlets in more than 80 countries. Now that’s what we call the power behind Polar.

This basic monitor features added stopwatch and time-of-day watch features, automatic age-based heart rate zones, extra-large digits for easy readability, and one-button functionality. It provides a visual and audible alarm when you reach your target heart rate zone. It provides information on total exercise time, average heart rate during total exercise time, and maximum heart rate. Other features include a date and weekday indicator and backlight and it's water resistant to 50 meters.
Display features (in beats per minute, or bmp):
EKG accurate heart rate
Manual target zone
Automatic heart rate zone
Note:Polar heart rate monitors are precision instruments; consumers are not advised to change their own battery. Polar recommends that all service be done by an authorized Polar Service Center which will include a warranty for 90 days on repairs and 6 months for batteries.
About PolarThe first EKG accurate wireless heart rate monitor was invented by Polar back in 1977 as a training tool for the Finnish National Cross Country Ski Team. The concept of "intensity training" by heart rate swept the athletic world in the eighties. By the 1990s, individuals were looking to heart rate monitors not only for performance training needs, but also for achieving everyday fitness goals. Today, the same concept of heart rate training is being used by world-class athletes as well as everyday people trying to lose weight. Polar is the leading brand among consumers, coaches, and personal trainers worldwide and the company is committed to not only producing the best products, but also being the leading educator on the benefits of heart rate based exercise.
Product Description
Turn any activity into a workout with the Polar FS3 heart rate monitor. The FS3 has additional features beyond the basic heart rate monitor for a complete workout. This well-rounded HRM offers automatic age-based heart rate zones that will keep you exercising on the right track.

Polar F4F Heart Rate Monitor
Slim, "red berry" heart rate monitor watch designed exclusively for women
Zone Pointer mode displays where you heart rate fits within target zone
OwnCal function shows your energy expenditure during 1 or many sessions
Time in Target Zone calculates amount of total exercise time spent in zone
24-hour clock with day/week indicator and stopwatch; 2-year warranty
Featuring a new, slim design, the F4 is Polar's first heart rate monitor designed specifically for women. It's packed with innovative training features to help you toward your exercise goals, including:
· Zone Pointer: A visible and audible feature on the display of your heart rate monitor showing your target heart rate zone and where your current heart rate is within that zone.
· Polar OwnCal: Shows your energy expenditure during one exercise session as well as your accumulated kilocalories during several exercise sessions. You can set daily and weekly exercise goals in terms of calorie expenditure with the OwnCal feature. Because the OwnCal tracks both the energy expenditure during one exercise session and the accumulated kilocalories during a longer time (e.g. one week), it helps in achieving both short-term and long-term goals.
· Fitness Bullets: Shows a bullet on the monitor's display for every 10 minutes spent exercising/training in your target heart rate zone. The Time in Target Zone feature calculates the amount of total exercise time spent in your personal target zone. You can use this feature together with the Total Exercise Time to determine the effectiveness of your exercise program.

· Display of heart rate, exercise time, and average heart rate
· 24-hour clock with day/week indicator and stopwatch
· Large easy-to-read display with split screen

ELLIPTICALS TORONTO
ELLIPTICAL: Sole Fitness, Bodyguard Fitness, AFG Fitness, Endurance Fitness, Eurosport Fitness & More!
Unlike treadmills, each elliptical manufacturer provides a different feel and it is important that you try them out and find the right fit for you. You should be able to move in a natural comfortable way. Typically the shorter the frame; the shorter the stride length. Free Motion's Strider offers an unrestricted stride length and is new to this category. Ellipticals are good for the heart and lungs and building and maintaining bone density. They are also a good calorie burner. They are one of the few machines that exercise both the upper and lower body and are impact free. This may be of importance to you if you have a bad back or knees.

Bh T8PRO Canada review

2009-11-06T13:15:00.000-08:00

Are you Kidding me??
How can one even compare a Lifefitness or Precor treadmill to the BH T8 Pro. A stronger warranty, a bigger more cushioned running area, and most importantly at half the price there is simply no machine in the market that is comparable to the BH T8 Pro. I have been using this machine for the past 6 months and as an avid runner I could not be more pleased with its performance. Equipped with an orthopedic cushioning system that leaves me feeling as if I’m running on air, a solid steel construction and a powerful 3.5 continuous horsepower motor, the BH T8 Pro is undoubtedly a superior treadmill. The closest machine even remotely comparable to the BH T8 Pro will cost you twice the price and more than likely give you a much less warranty. So you’re probably asking what’s the catch? Absolutely no catch! A lifetime motor and frame, 10 years parts and 5 years labour warranty threw any quality concerns out the door. Is this enough to convince you or should I mention that the BH T8 PRO is onl $2699!!

The Ab Circle Pro Reviews

Once you have made a decision to start exercising at home, the question is what equipment do you get to help you? There is a dizzying array of home exercise machines on the market, all offering to do different things. Should you get a treadmill or exercise bike or maybe a rowing machine? Or splash out and buy one of these enormous multi-gyms?

Unless you have studied to be a Fitness Instructor or Personal Trainer, this can be a real puzzlement ! Personally, I'd say that a machine that will do the job for you, without costing an arm and leg, is the Ab Circle Pro.
The Ab Circle Pro Combines Cardio With Abdominal Exercise
Helping with our modern lifestyle

With our modern lifestyle, the long hours we work and the amount of preprepared and junk food that we consume, taking regular exercise is essential. Put simply, we are getting fat fast! Statistics show that within the next 10 years nearly half of the population of the United States will be overweight or obese.

Being overweight restricts what activity you can do, make it even making it even easier to do nothing, and being obese opens the door to a range of life-restricting and even life-threatening conditions like diabetes and increased risk of heart disease, stroke and cancer. We no longer walk anywhere, getting into the car simply to drive to the local store for a newspaper. And food is everywhere - all the wrong sort of food - high in fat, salt and sugar and low in nutrition, meaning shortly after we have eaten it we want more and so the cycle continues.

We need to break that cycle! No matter how busy your lifestyle, you should be able to find 20 to 30 minutes per day in which to do some exercise, and even this small amount, five days a week will make a difference. And here's where the Ab Circle Pro comes in. This is a compact, low-impact exercise machine that is easily stored, can be set up in seconds and will help with inch and weight-loss if used regularly and combined with other exercise and a reduced-calorie diet. The Ab Circle Pro combines cardio exercise with abdominal exercise, targeting the one part of our body where we want the most reduction!

Cracking The Mystery Of The Abs!
The Ab Circle solves the problem

Traditionally, exercises to strengthen and tone the stomach muscles meant lying on the floor attempting to do sit-ups. These are very hard to do correctly, usually resulting in an aching back, a sore neck and no muscle toning in the ab area at all! We take weeks in Pilates classes to teach beginners to do sit-ups correctly, encouraging them to pull their tummy downwards towards the floor while trying to make their lowest rib come closer to their hipbone, thus taking the pressure off the neck and shoulders.

Unconditioned abs that have maybe not been exercised for many years take time to respond; usually by lesson three, beginners are starting to get the hang of what is actually going on in their midsection, and once they have the idea, results come rapidly. Along with their unqualified delight in cracking the Mystery of the Abs!

The Ab Circle Pro neatly solves the problem of using the abs correctly by getting you up off the floor and into a supported position, kneeling on all fours. That's why this machine looks so weird! But the clever part of the Ab Circle Pro is that, once you are in position, your abdominals are exercised while keeping them flat, making an incorrect crunch impossible!

The Ab Circle Helps Support You
Friction free gliding!

The Ab Circle Pro slides along a friction-free gliding track from side to side working all your waist and tummy muscles at the same time as giving you cardiovascular exercise, which conditions your heart and lungs and burns calories for fat loss. The hand position of the Ab Circle Pro means that your shoulders, chest and arms also get a workout supporting the weight of your upper body; this is an excellent way of strengthening the arms and shoulders and building bone density to guard against brittle bones in later life.

The Ab Circle Pro Is Great But...
Giive it a helping hand :)

Many people have asked me questions regarding the Ab Circle Pro as in "Will it really give me the results that it says it will? And will I really noticed the difference in just two weeks?"

Well, all I can say to that is, using the Ab Circle Pro on its own for just a few minutes will make some difference, but not enough to give you radical changes to your body and your fitness levels. I see the Ab Circle Pro as an excellent part of a lifestyle change that involves a combination of overhauling your diet and changing very slightly the way you do things in your life.

As far as home exercising goes, the Ab Circle Pro rates well as it represents good value for money and is neat and compact enough to be used in even a small apartment, as it can be folded for storage under the bed or in the closet.

In my view, a perfect fitness regime would consist of three 30 minute sessions during the week - say, Monday Wednesday and Friday. Part of each of these sessions could be spent on the Ab Circle Pro, which combines cardio exercise with toning of the waist and stomach muscles, and because of the unique positioning on the Ab Circle Pro, your spine is kept in an optimum position and so are your abdominals.

Exercising with the correct form produces excellent results! For the remaining half of your workout I would suggest toning exercises such as squats and lunges and perhaps some work with dumbbells to tone and strengthen shoulders.

If you use the Ab Circle Pro in this way three times a week and on other days look for ways to add a little exercise into your life, such as not using the car unless you have to and always using stairs instead of taking the elevator, then you will indeed see amazing results within a short time.

The Ab Circle Is Good Value For Money
Much cheaper than a treadmill

The Ab Circle Pro costs just under $200; a fraction of the cost (and a fraction of the size) of a treadmill or multi-gym. Along with the machine you get a workout DVD and a guide to healthy eating (essential!). And that's not all. You can try the Ab Circle Pro in the privacy and comfort of your own home for 30 days for just $14.95. If you don't like your results by the end of that period, just send it back -- but I bet you won't want to!

The bottom line is, doing any exercise is a good thing. Use the Ab Circle Pro regularly, and will soon begin to see your weight drop and your shape change. You'll feel great and look fantastic!

All the best,

Carol J Bartram

I've Go A Bad Back Should I Buy The Ab Circle Pro - Q&A
Or a bad knee

Question I'm being asked questions like "I have a bad back / knees is the Ab Circle Pro suitable?"

Answer I would have to say no. If you have any physical issues you must speak with your health professional / Physiotherapist before you buy and use the Ab Circle Pro. In fact before you start any new exercise regime you should get clearance first. The only person who can advise you (because they have your medical history) is your health professional.

BH Fitness T8 Pro VS Precor 9.31

2009-11-05T16:45:00.000-08:00

BH Fitness Calgary
BH
Fitness Ontario

During a head to head comparison between the BH Fitness T8 Pro treadmill and the Precor 9.31 treadmill, it is obvious that the BH T8 Pro is a higher end unit, with a better price!

The first thing I noticed between these two units was the warranty. BH Fitness is known for backing their products with big warranties! The T8 Pro is no different! With a Lifetime Warranty on both frame and motor, 10 years on all parts and electronics, and 5 years on labour, this warranty blows the Precor 9.31 out of the water with only a 1 year labour warranty. You can purchase an additional extended warranty for about $200 to match the T8 warranty.

In addition to warranty, the T8 Pro is built for serious workouts featuring a whisper quiet 3.5 HP continuous duty motor and a generous 22" x 60" orthopedic belt not found on the Precor 9.31. Precor has equipped their unit with a smaller 3.0 HP motor and a 56" x 22" running belt, which is relatively short, especially if you are planning on doing any running on your treadmill.

Built to handle "club use", the T8 Pro delivers speeds from 0.5mph to 12mph plus a 1% to 15% elevation in 0.5% increments so you can customize your workouts. Not to mention more programming than it's competitor, as well as 4 additional User (custom) programs. The T8 Pro also features both contact and telemetric heart rate, including a Polar heart rate chest strap. Precor again falls short, not even having contact heart rate. However, the 9.31 does have telemetric capabilities, you just have to purchase the chest strap at yet another additional cost.

Why pay more and get less?

Stop by any of our locations today and take our BH Fitness T8 Pro for a test drive! Our friendly and knowledgeable staff will be happy to assist you!

Bh T10 vs. Life Fitness T55 Vs. Precor 9.35 Vs. BH T8 Pro

2009-11-05T14:16:00.000-08:00

Comparing Products:

If you are looking for a treadmill which will be used for marathon training, triathlon or anything long distance, we recommend usually a commercial grade treadmill so it will be able to withstand the type of punishment. The BH fitness treadmills are a good choice if you don’t want to spend an arm a leg. Usually with commercial products you pay for the brand name and the all the cost associated with marketing. BH makes great treadmills at amazing price points. The BH T8 Pro treadmill is perfect for people with a 22’’ by 60’’ belt and is a light commercial product. IF you want to compare this treadmill within the same specs, it will be compared to the Life Fitness T55.

The Life Fitness T55 retails for $3499.99, the Precor 9.35 treadmill retails for $4748 and the BH T8pro fitness treadmill sells for $2699.99.

Now feature wise, they both have 22’’ by 60’’ belts and have an abundance of programs. Warranty wise the BH T8 Pro provides a superb warranty compared to even products like the Life Fitness T9i or Precor 935 treadmill. Usually a products warranty dictates the quality of the product and the BH T8 Pro treadmill will beat every other products warranty out there. It also provides an orthopedic belt which really makes a huge difference on the joints as it provides extra cushioning. The console is really simple to use on all BH fitness products and they all even have commercial warranties on all of them.

And if you really want to have a full commercial treadmill at home and not pay an arm and a leg, you can always look at the BH fitness T10 Treadmill. I have used this treadmill and for the price of $3299.99 it is a steal. Quality wise and every spec wise this treadmill will blow your mind away. This treadmill is as sturdy as Landice and has the great looks of a Life Fitness treadmill. Again it has the extra long belt which I love to run on (22’’ by 62’’ )and is whisper quiet. With the amount of money you save you can get yourself the secondary piece that you are looking for and still save yourself a lot of money. Another thing about the treadmill is the ease of use, which is very important. It has every electronic feature that you are looking for and very easy to use. Compare it to the Life fitness or Precor higher end products, the features they have are cool looking but have you ever tried using them? Well put it this way, its not easy and gets you frustrated very easily. If you treadmill or any piece of equipment is not easy to use, you will not use it as much.
Bottom Line … No Brainer =
BH T8 Pro is a the Best Buy!

Vibration Machines Toronto

2009-11-03T14:20:00.000-08:00

Vibration
Machines Toronto

Now you can afford the latest breakthrough in health,
exercise and fitness technology…
A revolutionary new exercise machine is taking the sporting
and celebrity world by storm. Recent celebrities to embrace
this innovative new form of ‘exercise for wellbeing’ include
Kylie Minogue, Madonna, Claudia Schiffer, the German
Football team and the Collingwood Football Club.

Whole body vibration training has hit the mainstream and is
now available for home use!

Vibration platforms represent a global fitness revolution. In
just over 30 minutes a week, you can keep in shape without
leaving home. The effects of whole body vibration have already
been scientifically tested, With early Vibration technology

dating back to 1859, but it was the early days of the space race
between USA and USSR that the Soviet Space Program found that
vibration technology was a great way to combat decreased bone
density in the astronauts.
In the 1990’s the technology made its way to Europe, and
began to make its way into the fitness market. Thanks to Whole
Body Vibration (WBV) you can work all muscle groups, not only
those aligned longitudinally. WBV works like a wake up call to
the body, by stimulating the musculoskeletal structure, the
vibration starts exciting the tissue cells via the “Stretch
Reflex”. This creates an overall increase of blood circulation
throughout the entire body, even in places that struggle to get
blood. The immediate effect can be felt as the muscles are able
to work faster and more efficiently, therefore creating a more
productive workout.

WHO IS USING WHOLE BODY
VIBRATION?

Everyone from celebrities, to professional sports teams
(National Baseball League, National Football League), to
professional athletes (Olympic Winners), to fitness buffs,
to personal trainers, to Physical Rehabilitation centers and
Individual Health Enthusiasts.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF
WHOLE BODY VIBRATION?

BETTER RESULTS IN LESS TIME

Because the WBV works at such a fast pace, the

muscle groups and stretch reflexes are able to train

to their full potential and in a fraction of the time a
normal workout would require.

BOOSTS METABOLISM TO BURN

FAT FASTER: Increased muscle contractions at a higher speed
increase metabolic rate.

INCREASES FLEXIBILITY AND CORE STRENGTH
Consistent vibration encourages the body to rebalance
itself, and stabilize the core muscles.

ADVANCE MUSCLE STRENGTH TO HELP ELIMINATE FAT CELLS

Just 10 minutes of WBV training can produce the

same result as 150 leg presses with 3 times the body

weight, twice a week for 5 weeks.

DECREASE STRESS THROUGH HORMONE BALANCE

Oxygen flowing to inactive parts of the musculoskeletal
structure increases hormone flow.

BREAK YOUR FITNESS PLATEAU

WBV is consistently training muscles that you do not use on
a daily basis, encouraging your body to also push to the
next level.

WHY SHOULD I USE WHOLE
BODY VIBRATION?

With solutions for all ages, lifestyles and physical
abilities, WBV stimulates the body to create a reaction and
response via vibration. These vibrations transmit waves of
energy throughout the body, activating muscle

contractions between 25 to 50 times per second, enhancing
overall performance. Vibration training offers a host of
benefits, ranging from an immediate improvement in blood
circulation, to a variety of other measurable outcomes
including increased muscle strength and flexibility and
decreased cellulite.

HOW DO I TARGET SPECIFIC
MUSCLE GROUPS?

You are easily able to target different muscle groups

based on the position you choose with your vibration

machine. For the V-Bell, raising your arms in a direct

90° angle will work your biceps. If you move into a

squat position on the platform you are able to target your
glutes, quads and overall core stability. The Ishape can
offer an easy upper back-stretch by simply holding both
hands onto a top bar.

How to shop for a treadmill and what to look for:
"At this stage in the game you must take your time, and gather information. Concentrate on the mechanics of the treadmill, rather than its bells and whistles. The most critical components of a treadmill are outlined below. Purchasing your treadmill from a specialty store that specializes in treadmills sales and service will ensure more knowledgeable staff to help you; both before, and after the sale.
Your shopping experience should be as painless as possible. Try to avoid pushy commission based sales personnel. Ask to see if the store you are purchasing from does their own service for the product that they sell. It is always a good idea to purchase from a company that services what they sell versus a third party service provider. Ask how long it takes to get service should you require it. It is important to feel good about the place you will be purchasing your treadmill from because you will have to deal with them again. Remember that treadmills have common wear items such as belts and decks. "

2008-02-22T10:22:00.001-08:00

Being in the fitness industry I have seen the demand of these things skyrocket through the roof. At first I thought it was a "FAD", but seeing them and using them I realize these things are here to stay. To be honest I dont even think they have scratched the surface yet.

Kettlebells have replaced entire dumbbell sets, even entire home gym systems. The fact that you can target any part of your body with simple exercises has really attracted the attention of many new users, regardless of age, weight & fitness condition.

http://www.treadmillfactory.ca/ has really taken these things by the horn and started offering kettlebells at very reasonable rates! I would have to say it's probably the best pricing in Canada!

here is the link to their kettlebell page and accessory page :
