Bicep Tricep Exercise Machine from HOGGAN Health

haha, toning muscle is only the combination of bigger muscles couples with decreased body fat, if this machine doesn't build bigger muscles, then you're claiming it will decrease body fat? well, i can think of a 100 other more efficient ways to burn body fat including legitimate forms of cardio such as running and interval training, the designers of this machine failed to follow basic exercise principles

Build muscle and tone muscle? Seems the Hoggan people don't understand their physiology. Eccentric contraction is the most functional contraction in your body and by eliminatiing it you can set yourself up for some serious joint problems. Also you cannot improve overall metabolism without adding some eccentric training. Another Curves type of exercise machine and this stuff will NEVER find its way into my functional fitness centerr.

trainerman1, Thank you for taking the time to comment. Please allow me to address some of your points: we never stated that you will BUILD muscle with our machine, never was the intent of our circuit line. We will strengthen and tone muscle. This is NOT a machine for those looking to become body builders. Also, Never have we had a complaint that our machines are aggravating joints. Our machines fit a very specific niche and we are proud of its effectiveness for those to whom we market to.

Isnt the negative the most important part of the lift

Good comment, we should clarify... the bicep/ triceps machines' resistance is magnetic, user accommodated resistance. Meaning, the harder/ faster you push and pull, the more resistance you will feel. There is a knob that will allow you to increase or decrease the tension felt. Negative resistance is important when the goal is to BUILD muscle. Our circuit machine meant to TONE muscle.
