Billabong Solution Gold 5/4/3mm Steamer Wetsuit

Advantages: Ease of movement, warm,
Disadvantages: Not for the winter,

...I bought this wetsuit in the sale in january when a lot of shops and websites seemed to be gettin rid of last years stock. However, i was not interested in the design so much of the wetsuit as the price and the features. Although having said that I think that this wetsuit looks particulary stylish.

If you do own one which is only slightly... Read review

...it. Gold’s gym however are much better at pitching this product. Here’s what they have to say about it: “Another great alternative to stressful crunches and strenuous sit-ups. Our smooth-gliding Exercise Wheel, built from sturdy plastic, will tighten and tone arms, abs, hips, buttocks and thighs“. Features: Contoured handgrips to provide a secure, comfortable grip. Just push slowly and hold your position, before returning to the start position. The forwards and backwards movement works your abs in both directions. Stressful crunches and strenuous sit-ups? I hope they don’t use the same line when describing their abdominal roller which is designed to emulate just that!!! I’m also quite impressed by their claims that it will tone up your arms, abs, hips buttocks and thighs. Quite impressive, in fact I’m thinking about... Read review
