Total Gym Reviews

If you have seen the infomercial on TV with Chuck Norris, you are either convinced or not that a Total Gym machine is for you. You may not be aware that Total Gym Inc has been in business since 1974. Since then, the company has won a lot of awards and had a lot of studies done with their machines to show just how safe and effective they are for all people to use.

If you aren't convinced that a Total Gym is for you, the company gives you 31 reasons why you need to change your mind.

Total GymSure, some of the reasons are really lame (and could be used for all fitness equipment), like "#2: Convenience" or "#23 Improves Health", but some of the reasons are actually quite good and may just convince you (for example, #25, which says that you are using your own body weight as natural resistance to help get you into shape).

Total Gym Equipment - Is It Really Any Good?

You must remember that the TotalGym is just a piece of fitness equipment. It is not magically going to burn off 30 pounds of fat in 14 days.

What it is going to do however is give you a really good full body workout that can be scaled up in intensity by increasing the angle of the machine. As far as home gyms go it (along with the Bowflex) is probably the best machine for giving you a full body workout at a reasonable price.

It might take a bit of getting used to as it is not like any other home gym equipment on the market but if you have used fitness equipment before, want to get a full body resistance workout on one piece of fitness equipment then you can't really go past the Chuck Norris Total Gym.

Some of the best known Total Gym products are home gym equipment which includes...

  • Total Gym 2000
  • Total Gym 3000
  • Total Gym XLS
  • Total Gym 14000
  • Total Gym 26000
  • Total Gym GTS

Total Gym XLS Review

You’ve seen the Total Gym XLS on TV, the infomercials pretty much tell you what there is about this home gym. Maybe you don’t expect this from a product to be that good, maybe just another rip off that gets too much air time. But, it is really good fitness equipment and one that for [...]

Total Gym 3000 Review

The Total Gym 3000 seems like an easy to use home gym with nothing much to it. well, one thing is true, it is easy to use, but there is much more to say about this little fellow that what the eye meets. It has lots of exercises and you still have a squat platform [...]

Total Gym 2000 Review

The Total Gym 2000 is advertised extensively, as all Total Gym models are, with TV ads. For sure you have seen Chuck Norris and Christie Brinkley talking you into buying one of these basic and yet effective fitness gyms. The truth is that they are good, not the best, but yes, good for the price [...]

Total Gym Elite Review

If you have been looking for the Total Gym Elite and you can’t find it, the reason is as simple as that this product has been phased out by Total Gym and new products have been introduced that made it outdated. You can still find it through resellers or as a used item, but there [...]

Total Gym Pro Review

If you have been looking for the Total Gym Pro and you can’t find it, the reaosn is as simple as that this product has been phased out by Total Gym and new products have been introduced that made it outdated. You can still find it through resellers or as a used item, but there [...]

Total Gym Supra Review

The Total Gym Supra has been out of production. You can still find this model for sale as an used item and for sure there are lots of people trying to sell it out there. It was a good model and had a good construction, but there are new products even within the Total Gym [...]

Total Gym 1700 Club Review

The Total Gym 1700 Club is what you can call a budget gym, it is reasonably cheap and it includes a wide range of exercises that would make some gym machines blush in shame. It was built on the Total Gym 1500 and makes his predecessor futile, when choosing one of these, without a blink [...]

Total Gym 1100 Review

If you take away anything from the Total Gym 1100 it will disappear. It is as simple as any of these workout home gyms can get and yet can give you as much or more exercises than more complicated machines, at least that is what Total gym says. If you are looking for something that [...]
