Review
Summary |
The lack of physical activity among those of us in modern culture is an easily recognizable problem. For some, buying in-home exercise machines has become part of the solution to this problem. For others, these accoutrements have become an expensive means to continuing in their inactivity. Body Sculpture is one of many companies that manufactures and markets such products. Here we will review the approach of this company in encouraging consumers to incorporate exercise into their daily routine.
|
| Overview |
|
Body Sculpture offers a variety of products ranging from trampolines and exercise bikes to hand weights and exercise gloves. Their website states that the company has been in business since 1965 but was bought out by Solex Industries in 1990. Their aim is to be a company which “invests in people, believes in value, and has a heart for innovation.” While we cannot objectively comment on the benevolence of their dealings with customers and employees, stating such values is at least an encouraging point of interest. With regard to innovation, there may be some details in which they have improved upon the step machine or the all-in-one weight machine; however, these seem to be fairly standard units. They also state their desire to “provide (their) customers with most reliable product and most satisfying service.” The website does state clear physical, phone, and electronic contact information for various international branches of the company. An explicit guarantee for the products could not be found.

| Cost |
|
The prices for products offered by Body Sculpture are not listed on their website. The “Request A Catalog” link was also broken. Thus it is not quite possible to review the cost of these products.
|
| Website In Focus |
|
While in some ways, Body--Scultpure.com (yes, two hyphens) is an informative website (contact information, product list, etc.), in other ways, broken links, lack of pricing, and a general lack of upkeep of the website leaves the consumer feeling concerned. Add to this the lack of explicit guarantees or even an order form/list of stores where products can be purchased and one feels like Body Sculpture is not quite together with things. What was encouraging was the page on free exercise tips for losing weight and toning specific areas of the body. No user testimonials could be found.

| Final Thoughts |
|
Daily exercise is a crucial part of true weight loss. If you are seeking to lose pounds and feel like the machines offered by Body Sculpture will not sit unused in your basement like actual sculptures, you may want to consider including them in your plans. However, they may not be necessary for weight loss. You must simply find some kind of exercise you enjoy enough to be consistent with it. The same is true of healthy eating: enjoyment usually equals consistency. Also, be sure to drink lots of water to keep yourself hydrated and free from toxins. Lastly, in order to curb those cravings and make exercise most effective, you may want to consider a product that naturally and safely aids in burning fat and suppressing the appetite. With such an approach, machines or not, your body will be running in tip-top shape.
