Awesome Excercise find!!!
Well I decided that I would venture up the attic last night and start doing some serious cleaning and throwing.
going through boxes I came across a box from High school,yeah I am a pack rat!!! in the box I found some old excercise items or THINGS!LOL...you should see the bodysuits and tights you would roll !!
I can't believe I actually wore these **!!!
hand weights,ankle weights some sort of bands? vhs tapes
and a TRUE GEM!!!
a doorknob excerciser
some of you may remember this one it was ropes with pulleys on it you attached it to the doorknob.
Well last night I decided to try it out and I can tell you this!
IT WORKS! BIG TIME! how could I know? I can't move today! I used muscles I am not using in my everyday workout and I LOVED that! not the pain..lol..but the fact that I am targeting other areas.
I wanted to let you all know about this because I feel it is a great item!
I remember using it in high school when we didn't have the kinds of excercise equiptment that there is now and it really worked then too!
I talked to my MIL and she said she saw it in a Dr.Leonards catalog,I went and did a search for it and I found it if is anyone is interested in it here is the link, if you can't click on it, copy and paste this into your address bar

erciser/15789.cfm
It is VERY CHEAP! only $7.99! and worth it,my motto is if you can feel it it works!
I am actually going to buy another one as a back up "just in case".
If anyone comes across anything that can be helpful,being equiptment,videos,gadgets etc...please post and share so we can all give em a try!!
((hugs))

I remember these exercisers...They've come and gone over the years...When I was a kid in the early 70's, I used to use my sister's...then they came back in the 80's. I graduated in 1981, so, it shows my age.
I don't have anything saved like you do, but, I do remember having to wear gym suits! YUCK.

Hi Nancy- That is a good buy if there is no shipping. I saw the same item at the local sports store for $12.99. Glad you found something that you like. You motivated me to stretch and use my yoga ball last night while watching tv. It felt good and I don't see why I can't do more of that instead of sitting on my booty all night.
