★☆☆☆☆
If you are older and are stiff - reconsider
This is actually very hard to use. It requires a lot of body/arm strength to use properly and it really hurts. I am a pretty tough ex-athlete and I had a very hard time using this. It looks easy when you watch the videos online, but in practice if you have injuries (such as shoulder/wrist) that prevent you from supporting your body weight this might not be for you.
Another issue is with flexibility - if you are inflexible some of the movements will be tough.
In the end, I guess what I am saying is that using this is actually a pretty tough workout and if you have joint/flexibilty issues, then you might not even be able to use it.
It is constructed very well and seems like it will last.
The 1 star rating is because I think the product is marketed in a way that makes it seem appropriate and helpful for everyone.
