This resistance band is a great idea, but needs to be available with variable resistance. Some exercises are much easier to do with this than the typical stretchy resistance band, and (hopefully) no worry of the band snapping. I'm a woman of average strength but can't do some of the exercises because the bands are too short and don't stretch enough. Some of the exercises shown in the instructions are simply not possible unless you're the Hulk! This shouldn't be a one-size-fits all gadget.

I have used this 3 times and it already broke…seemed to be a good resistance band when I got to use, but it didn’t hold up! I have had two from a different brand and they lasted years. Frustrated and I hope to find a better band similar to this.

Stretching in the am before I get out of bed has been a game changer in my weight loss journey.

Effective workout Coreplus reformer. It is an adjustment to get feet into the handles. But, will get better at it with time used. I did not receive the DVD that was advertised to be in package. So, had to look up on YouTube to use.

This is the second time I bought this resistance band. The first one lasted 12 years and this is the replacement. It is great and lasted a long time.

It's not a gimmick it's useful and good quality. I am currently using it for physiotherapy purposes but I think I'll be using it afterwards when physio is over. Check out the GAIAM AUSTRALIA CORE REFORMER PLUS video on YOU TUBE it's very good. In general they're are other good GAIAM AUSTRALIA video's on YOU TUBE.

Overall, this band was exactly what I was looking for. However, the dvd that came with it is virtually useless since I have no way to play it. It would be awesome if they would provide a QR code with a link to the video to watch on my phone.

Was ist das für ein Gerät?Mit dem Gerät lässt sich ein abwechslungsreiches Pilates-Training absolvieren, das im Vergleich zu anderen Pilates-Workouts die Extremitäten etwas mehr fordert.Material und Ausführung sind ok, aber auch nicht mehr: Die Tubes sind mittelmäßig und wiesen bei Lieferung schon Schrammen und Kerben auf, das Plastikteil, durch das die Tubes laufen, kerbt diese auch schnell ein, was Misstrauen in die langfristige Haltbarkeit weckt. Die Griffe sind nicht fest, sondern verrutschen beim Training schnell aus der Position.Was bietet die CD?Die CD bietet eine englische Anleitung mit drei Workouts à ca. 15 min mit den Schwerpunkten Oberkörper, Rumpf und Unterkörper, die man auch als Einheit abspielen kann. Weitere Einstellungen (Tempo, Intensität usw.) sind nicht möglich.Die Anleiterin empfinde ich als angenehm, sachlich, professionell und sprachlich gut verständlich. Man muss allerdings am Anfang dauernd den Bildschirm im Auge behalten, weil die Positionen schnell wechseln, was den Nacken ganz schön beansprucht, wenn man nicht gerade einen Riesenmonitor nutzt. Die Models führen die Übungen ästhetisch und gut nachvollziehbar, aber mit einem allzu unnatürlich wirkenden Dauerlächeln vor, das eher an amerikanische Verkaufsendungen denken lässt. Im Hintergrund dudelt meditative Musik aus der 'Dose'.Für wen ist das Gerät geeignet?Das Gerät setzt Pilates-Grundwissen und einen mittelmäßig trainierten Rumpf (Powerhouse) voraus, damit die Übungen richtig durchgeführt werden können. Die Anleiterin gibt keine Pilates-Einführung in Haltung und Atmung. Unter den drei Vorturnerinnen ist zwar eine, die vereinfachte Übungen vorführt, auf welche die Anleiterin auch immer wieder am Rande eingeht; aber ich denke, dass Anfänger mehr Spaß und Erfolg mit einer guten Einsteiger-CD haben und der Kauf des Gerätes für sie keinen Mehrwert hat (eher im Gegenteil).Für mich (knapp über 1,80 groß) ist das Gerät zu klein, vereinzelte Übungen kann ich deshalb nicht durchführen - die Tubes kommen dabei ans Ende ihrer Dehnkraft und zerreißen fast.Fazit:In Verein mit der CD ist das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis bei 30€ angemessen (mehr würde ich persönlich nicht ausgeben). Aber ich halte eine etwas bessere Qualität des Gerätes und vor allem verschiedene Größen für wünschenswert.
