The Step Body Fusion Kit Review

The Step Body Fusion Kit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
All together I think this is a pretty good deal for someone looking to get started with aerobic exercise. The components are of decent quality: the band didn't seem like it would snap and the ball was easy to inflate. At the time I was looking into prices, it was quite a bit cheaper to get everything as a set then to buy two or three of the individual pieces separately.
The included workout DVD is good as well, with a mix of step aerobics and light weight lifting using the dumbbells and band.
I believe the step is slightly smaller in side to side length then the steps you can buy individually. A better step or more weights would have bumped this up to five stars, but that being said, I haven't seen anything better on sale.
One note of caution: when I first received the package, the cardboard box containing everything was broken and the weights were missing. I wrote Amazon and they sent me a replacement and a pre-paid return shipping label fairly quickly, even though the actual merchant was Target.

Everlast for Her Twist Board Review

(This is the same review I wrote for the Bally Twist Board, but this product is identical except for the color.)
We had one of these when I was a kid too (1960s). All of us kids fought over it (that's probably why my parents made it disappear). Now I can have one of my own. In fact, I have two. You get a better workout with two--one for each foot.
I fell on the ice this winter (rats!) and these little twister boards have been excellent to help work out the pain that still lingers in my right hip. I stand on them while I read and twist gently. I use light weights and dance around on, and off of, them to music. I keep them handy, near the kitchen, so I can use them whenever. I love them.
If you're concerned about them slipping on the floor just use some that Rubbermaid squishy shelf liner stuff underneath them. Hold onto a countertop if you're concerned about balance and turn your legs all the way in and out, together and separatley. You can mess around with weight transfer too--stand on one leg and twist the other or put weight right on the leg and twist. Both ways are fun and good movement increasers. You'll enjoy working your hips, obliques, and lungs (if you really get going) this way. I even put them on my kitchen stool tops and sit on them sometimes.
They're so inexpensive and so fun they're really worthwhile.

Original Training Package (Deck, Roller, & Cushion) Review

Got this Indo board for my 11 yr old daughter who loves surfing and skating. It's an awesome core workout and is excellent for balance. This is not for the faint of heart though. Stand next to something or someone stable while learning this. It can get away from you in a big hurry!

The Indo Board offers a fun and formidable workout that develops balance, coordination and strength while enhancing core fitness. The large, oval, wood platform can be used alone or with the other balance elements to vary the challenge. Indo Board gives all users the chance to succeed and progress at their own level. Start with the Indo Board alone, progress onto the inflatable IndoFLO Cushion and finally the high-impact plastic IndoRoller. Each package includes one 30"L x 18"W deck which is textured for a sure grip, one 14" diameter IndoFLO Cushion and one 18”L x 6.5” diameter IndoFLO Roller. 250 lb. weight limit.
