Body Exerciser

I recently moved and my old one was lost or has yet to surface. I love this exerciser for its no impact toning results. I have door latches not door knobs in my new place. In order for the exerciser to work properly, attach to the opposite side of the door so the closed door secures the handle from slipping off.Happy workout!

**Update Nov 19, 2024**Now, I do this rope pulley in the morning out of habit, core tight & shoulders off the floor, slowly:•20 individual leg lifts (laying on my R&Lside)•20 both legs together lift (up & down)•20 scissors leg lifts•20 straddle my legs apart inward& outwardBecause I saw tighter abs and stronger legs results in a matter of 2wks, I kept doing this ALONG with 20mins floor Pilates from Peloton.Seeing those continued results in this type of resistance training, I bought a Reformer Pilates machine —yup, right from Amazon…not going to give a studio my hard earned money for something I can clearly do at home watching YouTube Reformer Pilates videos.I still use this rope pulley machine! It’s quick & easy and you will see results—do it slowly, engage your core and keep your shoulders off the floor. Yeah it’s plastic component so treat it as such. Going slowly is the key anyway.I will say this, this is not for someone who is taller than 5’6”. These ropes are not long enough.For the price, go ahead and try it. It cost less than a lot of things I can think of. Commit to it and there you go…it may inspire you to do more, who knows.**previous review**I’ve included a pic of how to tie it on a handle type (not knob). It does not slide off. I’m loving this Body Exerciser! For reference, I’m 5’6” 112lb. 52 years old woman. I’m using this with my Peloton “Just Work Out” “Strength” feature.As 2022, instructions for a few exercises and how to tie it come with the Body Exerciser. If you look on YouTube, you see workout demonstrations. Type in “door knob gym rope exercise” something to that effect. Also, search pilates spring wall or pilates reformer workouts to gain some ideas.I just got this, I’ll update later how things are going.I looked throughout reviews on Amazon and read what kind of reps to begin with and pieced this together:Everyday—100 reps, twice daily, before breakfast and supper. Work up to 500 as quickly as you can, and you will have abs of steel.If you can’t do 100 reps, start out with 50 repetitions of 4 sets of exercise.This exerciser is probably better suited for 100 reps or less.

Used it to workout with

I used to have one of these probably 30 years or so ago. This one looks like it's actually made pretty good I didn't know what to expect it was hard to tell by the pictures. I hope it holds up because I've read reviews about people complaining they break real easy I guess time will tell.

I don't like the handles. They are cheap plastic that is ribbed and they pinch your hands and feet. I had one of these years ago and the handles were made of heavy plastic and were smooth so they didn't hurt your hands and feet. Definitely not worth $20.00.

Years ago I had one, my weight just melted off. Saw it on Amazon and had to get it! Sturdy strong nylon rope easy to place on door knob or door hinges or however you choose to secure rope as you do Pilates type of stretching and exercises

Ok I own the original, it still works to this day. & yes I am old enough to have used this back in the day (I'm 50). Now this newer one...... well it's not as long as the original (this one is more for someone who is under 5'0" (I'm 5'3"), but I like the grips better (they won't get "stuck" in one position like the original). However, I do see me having to replace them in the coming months. I was going to keep this for myself but after trying it out I am going to have to give it to my youngest (she is the shortest). Now I will have a workout companion.

This is a miracle rope that I have been using for almost 50 years. You don’t need to have buttock surgery. Doing 50 reps of several exercises with this rope. You will have firm legs, butt, arms thighs stomach.I tried other devices but this is the #1 !When it gets old, I buy another one. One person that I turned on to this rope was almost 500 pds. Now she’s a size 10 or less in pants. Do the work, I promise you that you will see results within a week or less. People comment on my butt all the time, I remember when I 1st start using this rope in the 70’s , my friend and I were walking down the street. This guy was stirring so hard while driving the car drove upon the sidewalk, thank God that he got control of his car, he said mam what a hell of a butt , looking at it I ran my car off the road, I knew then that this rope was a hit
