For the price is actually pretty neat; I got a bullworker classic after using this one since the straps can stretch, but for the price you get something that actually works.. surprised me too doing isometrics for awhile now and i got in shape using only isometrics and a pair of dumbbells on the side..
I bought mine at Ross for $8.99 U just started using it and I thing it's a good product so far give me a month and I will let you know how much of a difference it is. I like it because I don't need weights and a gym member ship. I'd like to get a pair of the iso forearms and give them a try too.
All valid exercise tools are essentially the same: if you work hard, they yield results. In that sense, ISO7X's valid, but in practice, quite limited: The lack of much movement make it essentially isometric, & the limited/imprecise method of monitoring progress, (frustrating at best, virtually useless), make it suitable long-term only for the most self-motivated trainees. By the time you're -that- motivated, you can get the same workout pulling on a rope or pushing on a stick.
Okay here's the deal, you seriously have to experince trial and error, just because when you first get it does not mean you will get results right away, in all work outs no pain no gain, but do not stunt your growth or cheat yourself that is the best way to get results, i'm a tell you right now, i weighed 297 pounds at height 5'10 and now after a year and half i mixed Iso 7x with basketball and bike riding and now i weigh 160 at 6'1 so i would say it works you want to see results from fat to rip
I just got this 2days ago. Here are some pros and cons so far that I've noticed. Pros. Great for chest, back, shoulders, triceps. Con. Legs, Abs and Bicep seem the hardest to do, almost impossible, and also very akward.
A lot or people, including myself, have noticed that the pictures for some of the exercises on the wall chart that comes in the box don't match the descriptions. I called customer support (which I had to find online, by the way), and they told me if I faxed them a copy of the receipt they would send me a corrected wall chart. So, I did that, and good news; I received a corrected wall chart in just a few days! However, there is also bad news...
Two of the exercises (in fact, the ones that had the wrong pictures on the original wall chart) seem to be physically impossible for people of normal height to do. These two exercises tell you do "stand straight up" while standing on a strap and pulling on the opposing one. I'm 6 feet tall, which is not unusually tall, and I find that even if I pull the strap all the way up so that the spring is completely contracted, it doesn't stretch anywhere near enough for me to stand all the way up.
I'm using the is07x now but I gotta tell you its working for me but I do it with resistance bands training so I get both isometric training and compound movement training.
it works.. im on week 5.. great for chest, shoulders, back, bi's.. kinda sux for legs, and not great at all for abs.. you do have to be careful.. the directions are hoaky and don't match up to the pictures on the poster. and like @chpwup says.. its easy to injure urself.. be careful..
I purchased this, and to my surprise, was getting quite good results from it. However you need to be quite careful with this piece of equipment. I strained my shoulder using it (and I was fairly careful to not overdo it), and I still have pretty severe pain when I make certain movements months later. It's a good piece of equipment, but one that it's easy to injure yourself with.
It's a shame too, because after I got to the part of the routine that involves multiple reps I seemed to be seeing results.
I noticed that after doing some of the advanced exercises my arms would ache a little afterwards, but it wasn't too bad so I walked it off and tried to be a little more careful, but one day after exercising with it, my shoulder started making popping noises and getting stuck and feeling really weird.
i got this, but i dont have the chart.. can some1 take pics of the chart and send em to my email grudge20s@live.com ... or send a link for me to download it... thanks
forgot to mention the iso arms are a hard workout. I love it I have an elastic band but does not compare to this it is much harder than it looks like I myself spend 1 year in the gym 4 days a week but when I got this I could bearly do it! It's worth the money
I bougt the iso7x and it really works. I do like 5 sets of each exercise and you have to be precise when doing workouts. If you want a review on it let me know thanks
people when they see this don't think much about it and they comment by saying this is weak or it does not work. Well they have not used it so they can't say that. I own one and have used it for 2 months and guess what my bench press went up my wieght lifting went up too. Yes this really works it is better than the gym but remember to do some sort of cardio also to get max benefit
wats up dude. i jus bought this n im wondering do u do 1 set for 7 sec then the next 5 wrkouts the same. which is 5 types 1 set a total of 45 sec wrkout???help me out dude thx.
@yeee941 this is what I recommend do week 1 first do each exercise 3 times then move on and do the oher weeks and when you get strong eought do each exercise 5 times and if you want to get a great workout do repetitions of each exercise and on the 10 rep hold the contraction 10 seconds
This won't do much alone, combine it with weights or some cardio and you'll be in crazy shape! believe me I have alot of experience with this type of stuff.
If this ISOLATES the muscle, it shouldnt be enough. Compound exercices should be the core of your working program. Where are the squats, bb bench press, deadlifts, dips, chins?
i just got this for christmas and i absolutely love it. I already have the iron gym so i have some experience with workout equipment, but this still seems to be a little difficult to use since i just started but you feel results immediately. I recommend this to all
I love it . Isometerics is not the end all ,be all. Great for cross training and core training. Skip the gym , stay home with iso 7. Use as an accompliment to total body conditioning. Thanks ISO 7 X
WoW! This thing is amazing. My cousin gave this a try he's 6'1 250 and is a body builder this thing made him scream like a little girl lol. As for me I have been weight training for about 3 yrs now I'm 6'4 225 and this thing got me tired really quick its one helluva wrkout!
I just received mine the other day. I tried a few of the exercises and WOW - I was using muscles I didn't know I had. I'm older and have sore elbows and knees and this product is much easier on them than my standard bench.
I highly recommend this to anyone - the muscles worked are much more numerous than using just a standard bench.
Yes - it's way better than machines. Trust me, it's well worth the investment. I spent three times more money on a simple bench with weights and I like this much better.
