Il prodotto è di buona fattura. Le corde elastiche, da 10kg l'una, sono facilmente estraibili per poter modulare il carico e programmare una progressione del lavoro, motivo per il quale ho scelto questo prodotto. Sono soddisfatto, lo consiglio. Gestione dell'ordine da parte di Amazon precisa e puntuale.

Schmidt Sports Elastikon Chest Expander I (yellow cords) - ordered 11 Sep and arrived 16 Sep but collected 17 Sep (due to RM leaving card!). Good packaging, as described and worth the purchase. This product comes with 5 yellow strong elastic cords. The box shows the yellow as 5 x 10 kg. I had to remove all except one which was for me to start gradually due to unused arms, shoulder muscles. Held well, and with the holds pushed in each cord (resistance 10 kg) can be removed to suit your excercise. The chart shows the trainer using them with various excercises but is in German (which I knew before ordering after reading the other reviews) - but they are easy to follow. Well made and strong. The only nag is it seems a little long for me and measured by ruler as 68 cm from the handles (inside yellow part only). This is not a problem, as the stretch is not far to go when I use it to fully stretched arms length. The review given in version 1V sold this one to me and I am well pleased and recommend it as a result. The box shows other models as follows: starting with the model I yellow as 5x10 kg (so each cord strength is 10 kg, and with 2x cords = 20 kg and so on, max resistance being yellow=50 kg (for me this total was impossible to stretch at arms length!). The model II blue cords are 5 x 15 kg (total resistance blue=75 kg), then model III red cords 5 x 20 kg (total resistance red=100 kg), and finally model IV green as cords 5 x 25 kg (total resistance green=125 kg).

Ricordo che, da ragazzo, facevo ginnastica usando un antico "estensore".Ai tempi era un attrezzo costituito da cinque molle da tirare, con un inquietante effetto collaterale: se, nel rilasciare le molle, esse erano troppo vicino al petto, ne veniva fuori una dolorosa "ceretta".Quello venduto da Amazon, invece, è costituito da cinque corde elastiche, simili a quelle che si usano per legare i bagagli, quindi i rischi di dolori indesiderati sono spariti.L'attrezzo è "modulare", nel senso che le singole corde possono tolte o aggiunte a seconda della forza che si ha.Io ho ricominciato da poco ad allenarmi un po' in casa, e per ora viaggio con tre corde.Esiste anche un altro modello, della stessa marca, ma richiede più energia (http://www.amazon.it/Schmidt-Sports-Elastikon-Expander-Estensore/dp/B000PTFDXK ). Credo che sia riservato agli ultra-sportivi, soprattutto se intendono usarlo con tutte e cinque le corde.Non sono un tecnico del fitness, ma per il prezzo che ha (circa 21 euro al momento del mio acquisto) è senz'altro un prodotto consigliabile per alternarlo a manubri, flessioni, affondi e altra ginnastica da svolgere in casa, in modalità "fai da te".Consiglio generale: fate un po' di riscaldamento e stretching prima della ginnastica casalinga!

The chest expander is making something of a comeback as a useful, if somewhat arcane, edition to the vast array of exercise equipment available to today's home trainer, and in the Elastikon range we have undoubtedly its most versatile and mechanically efficient incarnation. In the days of Messrs Spenby et al, the expander lost many potential adherents because the incremental increase in resistance each time one added a spring was so great that it rendered some exercises virtually impossible to carry out, thus limiting its appeal to all but the most ardent and physically gifted practitioners. The Elastikon, with its range of graduated bands (from 10 to 25 kilo's worth of resistance each) obviates this problem and offers a truly strain free and progressive method of muscle conditioning for a very small financial outlay.I am 6'4'' with a big 'wingspan', but the Elastikon enables me to carry out all the classic expander actions across my full range of movement and together with the ability it gives me to increase resistance in manageable stages, I feel happy to endorse it unreservedly.
