This model of magic circle does not have padding on the inside of the handles, so you're not going to want to do exercises with your arm or leg on that side. The Gaiam Magic Circle comes with a video. The exercises are fine, by the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~114583441028 Sat, 4 Oct 2003 21:06:14 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_114583441028?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_114550869636?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author pilateschick - My only guess is that Altus was trying to make this system look 'high tech' with their mounting system & guides for the cords. Does it work? Yes. Are there simpler ways to get to the same workout? Yes! I'd recommend going with exercise tubi... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~114550869636 Sat, 4 Oct 2003 13:12:29 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_114550869636?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_114550017668?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pilateschick - Stamina Pilates Performer 55-4300 My 2 cents: Stability....B rating – good if you’re on the petite side, ok if you’re a little larger, not good if you’re 175lbs + or 6 ft +. Since you perform many of the exercises lying down, yet in motion, stability... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~114550017668 Sat, 4 Oct 2003 13:03:01 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_114550017668?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_114547134084?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pilateschick - This set is soooo close to being a great deal -- it includes a sticky mat, 2 blocks, a strap, and an intro yoga video -- but it misses with the 24 x 68 Non Slip Yoga Mat. 24" is 2 feet wide, and the average American, well, needs a bit more space when... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~114547134084 Sat, 4 Oct 2003 12:38:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_114547134084?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_114522427012?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pilateschick - Stamina Pilates Home Pro Exercise Machine What is Pilates?

Not only was this item NOT created by Joseph Pilates but I highly doubt he would be using it in his workouts if he were around to... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~114518560388 Sat, 4 Oct 2003 01:28:56 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_114518560388?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_114514235012?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pilateschick - At 24" across, and about 12" inflated, the BOSU takes a bit of space to store -- still, it's less space than an inflated exercise ball, and a heck of a lot more fun.
