I love the Total Gym XLS! I use to be into body building and I worked out with weights allot, but the problem with weights is that they tend to put allot of stress on your joints and if your not careful you can drop plates on yourself or hurt yourself badly with them. Some people think that if you're into body building that you can't use the Total Gym to build huge muscles, but that's not true! Because many times even in the world of body building it's not "How Much" weight you lift, but "How" you lift that counts! With a little know how the Total Gym XLS with the optional weight bar can easily give you more than enough weight to start building serious muscle mass fast! For example, bear with me for just a little bit while I go into detail in regards to its serious resistance potential. To start things off the maximum weight limit for the XLS is rated at 400 pounds. Now just to give you an idea, no matter if your using the pulley cables or not, along with your own body weight you will also be lifting the weight of the glide board itself which is somewhere between 15 to 25 pounds, but I'm not positive on that, so for the sake of discussion lets say the glide board is 20 pounds. If you use the optional weight bar with weights and you add on, lets say, 100 pounds, you're basically lifting a 120 pound glide board along with your own body weight! Now, if you do the math, you will understand better why I say that the Total Gym "Can" be used for the serious Body Builder for serious muscle building!
Customer Review: Love Our Total Gym!!
We love ours, even our friends come over to use it. It's a smooth workout that helps take pressure off your joints, but still gives you a great workout. My husband was already in great shape, but found that even though he's strong and in good shape he still gets an advanced workout with the total gym.
