Total Trainer Pilates Pro Review
Friday, February 11th, 2011
If you think the Total Gym is out of your price range, try the Total Trainer Pilates Pro by Bayou Fitness sells for about half the price and is considered a superior product in terms of how smoothly it performs and how stable it is.
It is a Pilates-style trainer similar to a Pilates Reformer. You will lift from 4% to 69% of your own body weight. With 21 levels of resistance and a 400-pound user capacity (max user height is 6′ 7”), the Pilates Total Trainer System comes with both Total Trainer and Pilates accessories.
The Pilates accessories include a dual leg cuff, Pilates Toe Bar, Shoulder Pads, and Resistance Bands. Also included is a Pilates instructional video, four program cards, and manual making this home gym versatile for men and women. This home gym ships fully assembled, double boxed and has a shipping weight of 100 lbs. Best of all, the reviews on the Bayou Total Trainer Pilates Pro are excellent.
Just a few comments: “We had the total gym about 8 years ago and there is no comparison. This is made better more comfortable to use and all the attachments you will ever need come with it- had to buy them separate from total gym.”
and…
“I tried a $1500 Total Gym, and after that a $450 Total Trainer at a friends house. The Total Trainer was built much stronger than the Total Gym and it is much more versatile with all kinds of attachments included in the price. You never get bored with this machine since there are 70 or so exercises without even getting into the Pilates. A fun way to get in shape… The board has a much thicker pad on it than the Total Gym, and the entire machine is built better. The rails are bigger, the rollers are guaranteed for life as well as the pulleys and cords. I use it for about 25 minutes a day, 3 times a week and I am in the best shape I have ever been in.”
Just a great machine. Find more information about the TOTAL TRAINER Pilates Reformer Home Gym Pro here.
