Total Gym 1700 Club Review
Endorsed by Chuck Norris and Christie Brinkley, The Total Gym 1700 Club offers a complete body workout and the benefits of exercise. With its great value compared to other Total Gym models, this compact machine is able to perform its job very well. The 1700 model helps strengthen and tone every major muscle in your body, and it also provides both resistance training and a quality cardiovascular workout.
Here are some of the key features that you get from this Total Gym:
- A Pilates Bar
- Weight Bar
- Dip Bars & Press-Up Bars
- Exercise Mat
What’s really great with this machine is that you can perform a lot of exercises to help you get into shape, and as the Total Gym would have wanted their models to be, it still is easy to use and has an easy storage feature – you just slide it under your bed after your workout.
The Total Gym 1700 Club priced at $379.98 is one of the best values that you can get compared to spending $500 on home gym equipment. However, according to one user, Total Gym is not expected to work on building large muscles, if that’s what you’re after the product, but it will surely condition both your upper and lower body even abdominals by reducing total body fat and burning calories constantly. It is really great for shaping and toning your muscles while retaining your flexibility and range of motion.
Total Gym 1700 Club, with its several handy attachments such as the Pilates Bar, helps you improve your range of motion and balance. The Weight Bar lets you add up to 75 pounds of additional free weights to intensify your workouts plus the Dip Bars and Press Up Bars which add exercise versatility. You even get an exercise mat that helps protect your floor. All it takes to get in great shape is 15 to 20 minutes per day, three to four times a week.

- Resistance Levels – Six levels: 6% to 50% of body weight

So if you’re after a leaner, and toner look, The Total Gym 1700 Club might just be the best buy for you. You just have to maintain a regular workout schedule and spend a few minutes watching the DVD that’s included in the package and you will surely be at your best shape in no time. Just remember, the machine will only give you the results that you want once you actually use it. If you let it collect dust, it won’t help you lose weight or have a great body.
