GoFit Ultimate ProGym - Portable Fitness Equipment,Multicolored,One Size,1077803

These work great for high energy work out and you can adjust the resistance so easy with this and gain complete muscle exhaustion with these. And take up no space,

Somebody was really thinking clearly in designing the GoFit Ultimate ProGym. This kit is very easy to pack and yet has enough resistance to support a pretty thorough upper and lower body workout when you travel. The quality of construction is as good as any I've seen in competing resistance band products. It has all the attachments required to hook it up to door frames and to attach to your feet.If I have one beef it is that the accompanying DVD needs additional engineering so that you can access individual exercises directly from menus. Some options are offered but it doesn't always reliably return to the menu after going over an exercise.One addiditonal benefit is access to the web site. There are other exercises on the web site and there are "mini" videos available to demosntrate how to do them properly.We are so pleased with this product that we bought a second one to keep at our vacation condo.

This is a handy, well designed item. I was surprised by the quality of the the exercises that are demonstrated on the DVD. They focus on strengthening the core. I had just finished a course of PT for a back issue and these exercises were consistent with those prescribed by my physical therapist.My only quibble may have more to do with my own impatience, and has nothing to do with the quality of the product, but applies to the use of bands in general. Each time you want to change the height of the bands you have to unthread the bands from the strap that holds them in place behind the door, open the door and move the door strap, and rethread the bands. As I speak I wonder how anybody who's too lazy to do that can get teh motivation to exercise at all.

I ordered this product to add more variety and challenge to my toning workouts. Fitness bands are particularly great for women, who may want to gain muscle strength without bulking up. This product comes with three fitness bands of varying resistance. I was pretty surprised how hard some of the exercises were even with the lightest resistance band--but they all felt good and gave me a challenge. I really loved the accessories the bands came with--a door strap and ankle straps. With the door strap you put it in the door frame and close the door, then loop the band through it. If you put the door strap at the top of the door or at shoulder level, there are many excellent shoulder exercises you can do. You can also put it lower in the door frame to do exercises sitting, or lying down. If you exchange the handles for the ankle straps, you can work your leg muscles, also using the door strap.The only thing I didn't really like was the DVD. It was definitely helpful the first time I used the bands--showing a variety of exercises and correct form for each one. But, you can't really use it from start to finish for your workout. The instructor only demonstrates how to do the exercises--she doesn't lead you through doing them on each side of the body, etc, for a full workout. Also, you frequently have to change to and from the door strap and ankle straps, which takes about 30 seconds, so you have to pause the DVD between most exercises, which is kind of annoying after a few times. Luckily, the kit also comes with a poster that shows all of the exercises and explains good form on each, so that is helpful for everyday use.This is a great kit for travelers. You can just bring the one resistance band you're using at the moment, the accessories, and the poster, if you need it.

I take these when I travel and don't have access to a gym. I also have a pair set up in a more permanent way in a home gym. The elasticity is reliable; stretch and recoil of the bands feels equal and holds up after many uses - unlike some cheap competitors. I like that they come with door frame protectors so I don't have to worry about marring trim/woodwork.

The carabiner Metal fastener does NOT attach to the metal ring on the ankle strap,instead it attaches to the same loop of fabric the metal ring goes through. Then wind the strap around your ankle, through the metal ring, and and press the Velcro to close. Overall the GoFit Gym is well made with a good mix of high quality resistance bands.

Seems to be well made and I love all the options. But there are only 2 carabiners total, so if you want to use the handles and the ankle straps in one workout (which all require the carabiners) you can’t do that without fumbling around with getting carabiners off and on again. Takes too much time. Returning and getting the larger set which appears to have 4 carabiners total.

I have used this product for over a year now, and have recommended it to many of my exercize-phobic friends.I purchased it to supplement my regimen on days when weather prohibits swimming in my pool, which is only about 60 days per year. I enjoyed them so much I now use them and some dumbells every night in addition to the swimming. It is interesting how the bands and the dumbells provide a different workout doing the same exercizes. I like alternating both.The best feature in my opinion is the instructional DVD. The instructor clearly demonstrates the correct way to use the bands. It really helps. Also, the chart that comes with the kit is easy to understand, but nothing beats the DVD. After awhile, of course, you don't need it.The blue band snapped after about six months. I called GoFit and they promptly sent a free replacement which has lasted.Bottom-line: after a year of faithful use I can honestly say I am stronger and look better. What more can you ask for?
