What is a Bodylastics Home Gym System?

           The Best Home Gym You Will Ever Own! Bodylastics is a complete home gym system. We designed this system in 1996 to outperform the most popular and expensive large bulky home gyms.

           Smoothest Resistance - When we were first developing the Bodylastics Home Gym System, we searched for the smoothest source of resistance on the planet. Well, we found it - Elastic tubing. Not only is elastic tubing super smooth when you stretch it, but it is incredibly light and flexible. That means it is easy to store - no extra room needed!

           Once we decided that elastic tubing would be our resistance "engine", we set out to design a system that could create several levels of tension. This would enable users of all strength levels to get the best results possible. So, we created the Bodylastics Quick Clip System. Our elastics have solid aluminum clips secured to the ends so that they can be easily attached to handles and ankle straps. This simple yet effective design gives users the ability to generate from 15 to 94 levels of tension (depending on which set you order) - Click Here to see all of the tension levels

Below is a commercial that ran in 1999
Yes, it a little hokey and the product is
outdated but it gives a great overview of
what this system can do:

The "WOW!" Factor

           When I first started selling Bodylastics, I would show it to all of my friends. So many of them looked at the system and snickered. I'd say "okay wise guy give it a try." I would clip on 4 elastics and have them perform a biceps curl. Without exaggeration 100% of them said "wow!" and then wanted to buy one.

           Our elastic tubing systems don't look like they can give you a workout like free weights. In this case looks are definitely deceiving. You will just have to trust me on this one. I have never seen anyone who was not pleasantly shocked on the very first repetition with this product. This system is unlike any elastic or elastic home gym system that you have ever tried - I guarantee it!

In 2002 we had a booth at the Arnold Classic in Ohio. This is one of the most famous Bodybuilding shows and also hosts the largest fitness Expo. Not knowing what to expect we brought 450 sets of Bodylastics for sale.

           At the last minute I came up with an idea to get people to try it. We challenged guys walking by, some huge some average size to curl all four elastics (the max resistance at that time) 30 times. Well, that definitely drew 'em in!

           Out of about 1000 only about 30 could do it and let me tell you something, everyone was raving about the product. People were so blown away by the product that we sold out in 1.5 days!! These guys could not believe how well Bodylastics worked their muscles. You won't believe it either!

Easy On the Joints!

           One of the biggest reasons why many other pro athletes are moving to Bodylastics and elastic tubing for their training is because it provides super effective resistance training without the joint pain and injuries.

           Have you trained with free weights before? You know that pain that you feel in your joints on a heavy bench press or shoulder press...GONE! You will feel the best muscle pumps of your life without the joint pain that usually goes along with it.

           Unlike free weights, elastic resistance does NOT create momentum. It's momentum that causes so many injuries - the weight keep moving, but the ligaments and tendons do not.

Many times our customer testimonials
are surprising even to us:

Andrew got rid of his Bowflex and now gets a better workout with Bodylastics, not to mention compliments on his physique Here's what Andrew had to say about Bodylastics: Blake, I was actively involved in power lifting and bodybuilding for many years before my divorce in 2001 and the death of my Father shortly afterwards. I was always complemented on my physique and felt very fit before these trying times. Succumbing to stress and depression, I ceased working out altogether. I have remarried since then and I am now raising three children. I found that going to the gym was impossible so I purchased a $1700 Bowflex in hopes of regaining my fitness ( and former waistline). My Wife absolutely hated the damned thing! It took up too much space. I really did not want to give the machine up because it really worked! However, in keeping the peace I got rid of it. I continued to lose the physique I was so proud of. I came across your website one day while searching for a home exercise machine that would be smaller but just as effective as the Bowflex. I have to admit, I was skeptical at first. The price was so inexpensive, I ordered it. Needless to say, I'm hooked!!!!! I have since ordered more bands and cannot get over the convenience of the product!! I'm actually getting a better workout than I did with the Bowflex and the gym. I'm also getting complements from my friends and family. They all think that I've joined a gym. My Wife can't keep her hands off me. My two older children brag about "Daddy's muscles" to their friends. Thank You and Much Praise. Andrew Little. Click Here to see all testimonials

Build muscle? Big time!!!

           There have been numerous studies that prove elastic resistance can build muscle as good if not better than free weights. Click Here to view the the data from several of these studies

           Hey, You don't have to take our word for it, all you'd have to do is ask any one of our thousands and thousands of customers who either stopped going to the gym, or ended up selling their free weights on ebay.

           Even better, why not ask numerous pro athletes and strength coaches if elastic resistance builds muscle?

           Probably the best person to ask however, is Terrell Owens, arguably the best conditioned athlete in the NFL. Terrell is a huge proponent of elastic band training and if you ask him he will look you straight in the eye and tell you that elastic band training has made him bigger, stronger and more explosive than free weights ever did.

           In early 2007, Terrell searched for an elastic exercise company to create a system to take his performance to all new levels. Well, he found us (Bodylastics International Inc.) and what we created is an elastic exercise system like nothing else on the market.

How do Bodylastics Home Gyms work?

           How does Bodylastics work? How can it create so many exercises? The secret is in our unique and well planned design. The two main features that make this product so versatile are the Bodylastics door anchor and Quick Clip System. An explanation for each are highlighted below:

Main Feature #1 Door Anchor

           Years ago we invented the best door anchor in the world. This unique component is included with every Bodylastics system. Here's how it works:

Step1	Step 2	Step 3	Step 4
Hold the soft foam end by the door opening	Place the foam end in between the door and door frame and shut the door	Open the loop on the end which comes through the door	Thread the elastic through the loop - That's it..you're in!

Here's a great clip of Personal Trainer Dan Burke
using Bodylastics with the door anchor attached

Main Feature #2 Quick Clip System

           Before the introduction of Bodylastics in 1998, elastic tubing workouts were very limiting. There was simply no way to adjust the tension like with free weights and machines. So, we came up with the Quick Clip System. By attaching clips on the ends of the elastics we enabled the user to easily adjust the level of tension.

           With that one little adjustment our system instantly became THE perfect muscle working machine for grandmothers and Bodybuilders alike. Here is how the clip system works:

           Each of the 4 foot long elastics is a different thickness and therefore creates a different level of tension. To create the exercises, you clip the elastic(s) on to the included handles and ankle straps. You can use the elastics individually or combine them to create up to 94 levels of tension (depending on the set that you purchase).

You can clip from 1 Elastic	To over 7 elastics at the same time

"I encourage you to ask the
professionals about this product"

How do we stack up
against the competition?

           Let's start with the comparison of Bodylastics versus Bowflex systems that use "power rod" resistance. These older Bowflex models use "power rods" as their source of resistance.

           Power rods create resistance when they are bent similar to when you are bending a bow to launch an arrow, hence the name "Bowflex". The power rods in the Bowflex are not bent directly when you exercise, they are connected to cables which are then fed through fly wheels to create a pulley system.

           In contrast Bodylastics uses elastic tubes to create resistance. The elastic tubes generate tension when they are stretched. There aren't any cables or fly wheels - you pull or push straight from the source of resistance.

           The bottom line: For years I said that our product was the $50 alternative to Bowflex. Although I had never tried a Bowflex first hand, I was able to say this because I knew how well our system worked, and I knew the basic principles of power rod resistance.

           Eventually Bowflex started selling through different distribution channels like Costco and Sports Authority. Due to this, I was able to give them a test drive first hand. The day that I tried a Bowflex machine I walked out of the store with one of the biggest smiles that I have had in a long time. Why? Simply because I was totally disappointed with my competition.

I used to say that Bodylastics was the $50 Alternative to Bowflex? Well I am going to tell you that my belief was incorrect. Once I actually tried a Bowflex with Power Rod resistance my feelings changed. I knew instantly that our system was a BETTER alternative to the Bowflex!

           I was totally unimpressed with the power rod resistance. In my short "test drive", the Bowflex created uneven resistance and the fly wheel movement was not smooth. This is not only my opinion. I have heard this from many of our customers as well.

           Bodylastics resistance is as smooth as you can get. There are no fly wheels, no pulley systems, you are simply stretching the highest quality latex tubes that money can buy.

Bowflex Revolution: Now let's fast forward to today and compare Bodylastics to the newest Bowflex System, the revolution. The new revolution systems use round disks that contain a complicated structure of elastic flat bands.

Firstly, the fact that Bowflex moved their resistance to elastics for their top of the line gym systems only confirms what I stated above. They realized the benefits of elastic bands just as we had done ten years earlier.

HOWEVER, similar to the older bowflex machines you do not pull or push directly from the source of resistance. The elastic disks transfer the tension through a series of fly wheels and cables. This most definitely will have a negative impact on how smooth your workouts will feel. That being said...Let me reiterate: YOU CANNOT FIND SMOOTHER RESISTANCE FOR YOUR WOKOUTS THAN WITH BODYLASTICS ELASTIC HOME GYMS...PERIOD!

           Now let's compare the resistance generated by the Total Gym with Bodylastics Elastic Resistance. The Total Gym creates resistance by mixing the principles of gravity with a sliding slant board. The slant board is attached to cables which are fed through a fly wheel and then attach to handles or ankle straps.

           When you sit on the slant board which can be set to different incline angles, it naturally slides down (gravitational pull) creating resistance. When you pull on the handles or ankle straps it moves the slant board up against gravity. The more of an incline that you create the greater the resistance.

Bodylastics elastic resistance has a unique clip system so that any of the four elastics (included in the basic set) can be combined and substituted. Each elastic is a different thickness and therefore creates a different level of tension when you stretch it. Since any combination of elastics can be used, multiple levels of resistance can be created.

           The bottom line: I recently tried a Total Gym system at Sears. It was not bad. I did feel my muscle working. Even though it seemed like a decent machine I still do not feel as though it can hold a candle to Bodylastics.

           Elastic resistance does have a few advantages over gravity. Gravity applies to the Total Gym and free weights as well. The tension from gravity is consistent as you shorten your muscle and perform the exercise. For example as you curl your arm the gravity tension will stay the same from when your arm is straight until your arm is bent.

           This is not the same with elastic resistance. When you stretch an elastic the resistance increases. This is a naturally occurring property of elastics. So, you will be placing more stress on the muscle at a more optimal time. When your muscle is fully extended it has the least amount of leverage and therefore is weaker (this is where you want the least amount of resistance).

           As you shorten the muscle the leverage improves and the muscle can handle much more resistance (this is where you want the most amount of resistance). The Mega expensive machines at the health club use a cam to create this situation. The cam is used to create less resistance at the beginning of the movement and more at the end.

           Elastic resistance used by Bodylastics does this naturally without cables or a cam.
