A great home multi gym
Advantages: Great value for money, plenty of weights Disadvantages: Takes a while to build, inability to add additional weights
...I decided to purchase the Weider Pro 5500 since it appeared to fit my needs best.
****Price and where to buy****
The price of the Weider varies greatly. The cheapest I have seen it is Marshall Ward (where I subsequently got mine form) where it retails at £349 to £495 at Amazon. With a bit of looking at discountvouchers.co.uk I found a discount product code for Marshall Ward for £30 for new customers.
****The specification****
The specification, ... ...should be noted that the Weider is not a piece of commercial gym equipment. It will not be used all day every day and it will not be abused by large body builders that get a bit heavy handed with the weights and adjusting the machine. In consideration of the above and the price paid for the multi-gym (commercial equipment costs thousands of pounds) the Weider is very well made and well up to the task of dealing with regular use.
The maximum weight ...

Puffing and panting
Advantages: Easy to use Disadvantages: So heavy you need a firm space
I've recently sold my Weider machine, which I had for two years. Whilst I had it it suited my needs, but I found that I quickly got bored of it, and it didn't have the flexibility to make it exciting.
The machine is incredibly large, and has a wide variety of weights. The down side of this is that it needs to be on a firm concrete floor like a garage. You shouldn't really put it upstairs (like I did) in a spare room!
The gym is good to use, especially ... ...the activiities too rigid for my liking. If you're a traditional iron pumper then this is for you.
I also found it hard to get replacement parts - I lost a pin for one of the leg excersises and it was really difficult to get a replacement. The way this machine is set up means that each time you move from one excersice to another you end up taking pins in and out to be able to use them.
Not a bad product, but also not the best. ...

Exercise That's Bad For Your Health!!!!
Advantages: Whenever You Want It's There Disadvantages: Hard To Assemble and Dangerous
...with this I bought the Weider 8515 Multi Gym because of being at home with five children it can be very hard to find the time to get down to my local gym and at just £299.00 I thought I was really getting a good bargain. I ordered the Gym from a home shopping catalogue and was very disappointed at having to wait a whole 5 weeks for delivery but eventually it arrived. Below I will take you through my experience of this Gym in a step by step process ... ...it and what I found good and bad about it, this will hopefully provide you with enough information to make an informed purchasing decision.
Setting Up
--------------
The Gym itself arrived to me in what seemed like a hundred thousand parts and the instructions were very confusing, I persevered and set it all out in the way instructed by the manual but still struggled and had to get my cousin round to help me. This was very fortunate as it took ...

JML Iron Gym a fantastic product
Advantages: Easy to use, durable, visible results in a short time and Safe Disadvantages: Not easy to store away
...have bought this year!
JML Iron Gym comes with easy to assemble instructions and takes literally 5mins to assemble. Iron gym fits onto almost every door frame in the house and with its foam handles and contact points it leaves no marks, no damage and wont put stress on the door frame!
I have been using iron gym for about 3 months now and the results have been great i have put on 1 1/2 stone in muscle weight. The iron gym comes in an easy to carry ... ...that tells you how to use it, what types of exercises to do with it, how often to use it and it even has an information booklet about nutrition and what to eat to get the best results from using it.
The iron gym has one small flaw and that is that you cannot easily dismantle it for storage which means its in the way alot of the time, but what i have done is left it on the door frame of the spare room right nex to the bathroom. Which means that everytime ...
