Body Sculpture Body Sclupture 5370 Cycle

Advantages: cheap, easy, fun, healthy
Disadvantages: none

...You often see rebounders - little trampolines - lurking in the back of gyms, spurned by the 'real' fitness-freaks. I don't know why, they are wonderful inventions that deserve much more prominence in the fitness market. I bought my Body Sculpture Rebounder years ago from a UK catalogue shop.

Ah yes, the included cycle computer... The Body Sculpture BC1510 Exercise Bike is a low- end exercise aid. The thing is, it's much lower- end than the documentation would have you believe. The sales literature boasts about the following features, which I will review as I list them: - Durable tension strap for varied resistance. This sounds more impressive than it actually is, but to be truthful it's adequate for the needs of your... Read review
