Product Description
The Total Gym 1700 Club gives you practically everything you need to start your own workout program to tone and strengthen the important muscle groups of your upper and lower body.Amazon.com Product Description
Want to tone your entire body without buying a complete home gym? Check out the Total Gym 1700 Club, which helps you strengthen and sculpt every major muscle group in your body using a single glide board and a few handy attachments. The Total Gym 1700 Club works by making you lift a percentage of your body weight against gravity, making the resistance smooth and fluid. As your strength and conditioning improves, you increase the total resistance by boosting the incline, thus increasing the body weight lifted in the exercise. The Total Gym 1700 Club thus not only works your upper body, but also your lower body, abdominals, and even your cardiovascular system. And by reducing body fat and increasing the proportion of lean muscle mass in your body, the strength training effectively turns up the thermostat so that your body burns calories constantly.
The Total Gym 1700 Club also offers several handy attachments that add a new dimension to your workout: a Pilates bar that helps you improve your range of motion and balance; a weight bar that lets you add up to 75 pounds of additional free weights to intensify your workouts (weights sold separately); dip bars and press-up bars; and an exercise mat to help protect your floor. All it takes to get in great shape is 15 to 20 minutes per day, three to four times a week.
Key Features:
- Pilates Bar to add a new dimension to your workout by helping you improve your range of motion and balance
- Dip Bars and Press Up Bars add exercise versatility
- Exercise mat protects your floor
- A larger glideboard for workout comfort
- Wider tower for added stability
- Auto-lock height adjustment
- Exercise flip chart for easy reference while exercising

Product did not arrive on time promised. Product arrived broken. Had to call Amazon on two separate occassions to explain the defected product because the first phonecall was apparantly not processed. Had major trouble with pick up situation.
Worst order that I’ve ever dealt with while making a purchase online.

I order the Total Gym 1700 Club and Amazon new feature helped me track my purchase. However the delivery person stated that they had delivered the product but no one was there. I was standing outside waiting from the truck, when I saw one go around the block twice. Then I went back to my apartment and check fedex website for a phone number call them. Once I call them I told them to hold my purchase that I will pick-it up. Then in their warehouse my box had a huge hole in the bottom and it was that box got wet in the warehouse. Now I am missing a pilates bar that should had come in the box. *****FYI Make sure you check all the pieces that come with your purchase. **** I also called Fedex to see if they could find my missing pieces.

The Product is easy to use and easy to set up. Although if you have the room I would suggest leaving it up all the time. You get a variety of work outs with this machine, I’m a stay at home Mom, and I like the light resistance training I get from it, and my Husband likes to use it for his upper body work-out, though he still needs to use free weights to keep with his personal work-out goals. I still continue to run besides using the total gym, becuase I didn’t feel that my cardio was being taken care of properly. I only have one complaint with the system, I have medium length hair, and while working out, I need to keep it pulled back and tucked under my shoulders, or it becomes caught and pulled.

The total gym is OK if you are interested in a light aerobic-like muscular work out. However, the resistance is not nearly enough for someone looking to gain serious muscle. Although it can fold to be put away, it is heavy and not easy to move it back and forth for work outs. I’ve had mine for around a year, but stopped using it after a few weeks simply because I was too strong for it. But for what it’s worth, it does work well, hasn’t fallen apart, and may fit others’ exercise goals. Bottom line is you cannot replace a gym at home.
