Summary |
Total Gym 1700 Club
Most Americans work in a profession that requires little vigorous physical activity. Add to this fact that we drive everywhere instead of walking, our leisure activities usually involve a television or computer, maybe a theatre (complete with that heart attack in a bucket--theatre popcorn). The conveniences of modern society have lulled our culture into sedation and chronic health problems related to excess weight. Overwhelming evidence points to exercise as the one way off the slippery slope of health decline but still more than 60 percent of American adults do not make the choice to exercise enough to make a difference. Twenty-five percent of American adults don’t exercise at all. With just 30 minutes a day of moderate activity a person can enjoy important health benefits. If weight loss is a goal, more intense exercise is needed for longer periods of time, which will not only assist in weight loss but will cause even greater health benefits. The ways to increase your fitness is as varied as running shoes, generally an established name brand is the best choice when choosing any type of exercise equipment.
The Total Gym® 1700 Club is advertised to give you practically everything you need to start your own workout program for the upper and lower body. Using the Total Gym ®1700 Club will supposedly tone and condition the muscles and transform your body composition. Of course, they are presuming you use the machine once you purchase it to make this happen. Gazing at it from the couch while you eat your popcorn and watch a movie doesn’t count as exercise on the machine. The makers Total Gym® 1700 Club claim it's easy to transform your body; just 15 to 20 minutes a day, 3 to 4 times per week to start realizing the benefits. That amount of exercise may start the process of transformation, but more is required by the person for lasting results

| Final Thoughts |
|
A balance of healthy eating, aerobic exercise, and muscle strengthening is required for a healthy body and also for weight loss. All three of these methods do not require anything more than determination and commitment. However, we recognize that some people have the money and the desire to purchase gym memberships or exercise equipment or weight loss programs. The important thing is that you move your body more than you allow it to stay put, how you do that is up to you. Total Gym 1700 Club may be one choice of many you could make for exercise equipment. We are not overly impressed with the machine for several reasons, it has a limited offering of strength training options, it would be difficult to adequately perform aerobic exercise with the machine, and the machine appears to be flimsy in its design.
After you have determined the method for your daily fitness it is important to make healthy eating choices to enhance the physical benefits of exercise. A healthy diet that consists mainly of fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains with controlled amounts of dairy, protein, and fats will cause the body to function efficiently. Hydrating the body with at least 6-8 glasses of fresh water every day works to cleanse the toxins from the digestive system. You can depend on these proven elements of a healthy life to get you where you’re going. There are also appetite suppressants and thermogenics that may be relied upon to assist you in your dieting.
