TKO 205AWP 5lb Pair Wrist/ Ankle weights Review

TKO 205AWP 5lb Pair Wrist/ Ankle weights
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These TKO wrist weights can be adjusted at 1/4 lb increments, and they don't scatter little metal granules like the Bell wrist weights that I used to use.You might consider wearing a thick old sock under them at the wrist...[cut out the toe] to prevent chafing... since the terry cloth lining is good, but not at the harder edges.

One other reviewer commented that the weights came flying out when punching.I found that happened also.To avoid that happening I put the bands on my wrists so that the pockets faced in toward my elbows rather than out toward my fists.The weights, when punching, are pushed into the bottom of the slots, rather than toward the velcro flaps holding them into the slots.

I'm still using them in 2010.

MynaTime Workout Assistant for Mac OS X Review

I purchased MynaTime a few months ago from Amazon.I thought I was no good at yoga because I was tired of working out to the same old DVDs and I just didn't make much progress with the few classes I could get to each month.When I first got MynaTime, I tried the yoga classes that came with it, they were pretty good and easy to follow and the best part was I could play my own music. Next, I modified the included classes to contain more of my favorite poses and changed some of the pose durations (this was really easy to do). Then I typed in a few of my favorite sequences from Bodies in Motion by Rodney Yee and even found a few on the web to try (if they're on the web you don't have to type them in), this gave me so much variety it re-interested me in yoga. Now,I want to do yoga every day, luckily MynaTime also makes it really easy for me to practice while I am traveling too, all I need is my laptop.One of my concerns before using MynaTime was that the computer voice would be too mechanical, but it's really not, in fact I find it soothing and enjoyable.MynaTime is great. I recommend it for anyone, I've even recently tried a get-ready-for-snow-skiing routine from Ski Magazine, it was great to do the workout while listening to my favorite rock and roll music and not having to watch a stopwatch or flip through the pages of the magazine.
