[quote=Anonymous]It seems gimmicky to me. I think ultimately free weights (doing similar moves) are better than some of the stuff done with that machine. Some of the ab work done on that machine can be done with a ball. My feeling with a lot of those workouts is that people lose a lot of water weight. Because you have a lot of people crammed into a space and moving, you sweat a lot. That can often give the feeling of really having worked out. I think with machines, you also run a greater risk of pulling and straining muscles. Again, I think compound movements with free weights can get the same results but are much safer and actually are better at building functional strength. The thing is that you don't necessarily drip with sweat if you aren't in a room full of sweaty people moving around, and so you may not *feel* as if you are getting a good workout. [/quote]
