The Firm Wave Exercise Gym

By Carol J Bartram

My clients have been pestering me to review the Firm Wave Personal Gym to decide if they should buy one. They were worried it would be another useless piece of home exercise equipment that was all hype and wouldn't give them the type of workout they were looking for. As I use a similar piece of equipment the T-Bow I took up the challenge.

The T-Bow and the wave are both curved to enable them to be used curved side up or down. If placed curved side down it's unstable and you can rock on it. If placed the other way you can stand on it and use it like a step. This way you can use it to step up and down (a normal step), enhance your stretching routine, with a cheap exercise band add many strength training exercises and by using only your body weight you can so exercises like press-ups, squats and lunges.

Turn the Wave over and place the curved side down and you have an unstable platform from which to rock or walk your way to a fantastic fat burning workout. You can also perform a rocking movement which really hits the spot, use the Wave length ways and walk your way fit, strengthen Abs and core and use it with a resistance band to make your workout more challenging.

One of the Wave's claim to fame is that it can burn three times as much fat as other pieces of cardio equipment. Hmm three times as much I can't say but it will give you one of the hardest and most challenging cardio workouts you've ever had. As a beginner I would expect you to be sweating and breathless in less than 5 minutes.

It's possible to do over 100 separate fat burning and toning exercises using the Wave. You can strength train and sculpt those long lean muscles you've always dreamed of. When you consider it comes bundled with 4 DVD's, an exercise mat, The Wave and a healthy eating guide all for less than $100. I was impressed with the wave and it compared well with the TBow. It's not gym quality but for home use should be OK.

Don't be tempted to think this is just another exercise gimmick it's not. The Wave will do exactly what the manufactures claim with one proviso. To get the claimed results you actually have to use it! Like any piece of home workout equipment if you leave it under the bed gathering dust it just won't work. You'll lose no fat, burn no calories and you won't get that strong and toned body you desire.

Why waste any more time, do what thousands of others have done. Ride The Wave and get the results you've only dreamed of.
