The video starts playing automatically for some reason but does anyone have any experience with one of these? I saw it at the store I work at and was curious. A gym membership is not an option for me so I was wondering how close this would come to strength training?

This is so stupid. You don't need a chair for this. Just buy one or two resistance bands and you can get just as good workout... and save 20$.0

I saw that on TV and couldn't stop laughing. It's a folding chair with some pulleys attached!0

Oh! It reminds me of the EasyXChair on Dragons Den a few years back. Had all the Dragons wetting themselves :laugh:

"instead of struggling with heavy weights"
BAW HA HA HA HA HA
okay- I'll just not struggle at all- because what's the point of lifting if you aren't struggling at least A LITTLE bit.0 -
Wow. Earlier this year I was joking when I said I was going to produce a "Come Sit With Me" exercise video series to compete with those walking DVDs. I guess someone beat me to it.0

Resistance band = $6
Folding chair = $9
Chair Gym = $150
Sure. I'm a Registered Chair Gym Coach. I sell the supplements you have to use to get the best results. Message me for more info.0 -
Wow. I didn't say I loved it and wanted to marry it... was just seeing if it was worth investigating. Apparently not.0

marrying it would probably be more effective than buying it to use as an exercise tool0

Yeah if you're not struggling at least a little you're not doing it right.
OP if you've got $150 to spend there are a lot better investments you can make. If you just want strength training you can do at home google You Are Your Own Gym-- that won't cost you anything.0 -
Sitting and standing while exercising already jumped the shark. I recommend waiting until my "cot gym" comes out instead. You can make it yours for only 8 easy payments of $39.99.0

I just wanna take it to a kids soccer game sidelines and do that in front of other parents and see what happens. Because my life is too easy right now.

As above - for $150 you should be able to get a decent start on some proper weights.
Or some resistance bands and a chair you've already got
.
Having got some bands to use when I'm away and my own weights setup when not; I'd definitely start the 'real weights' collection if you can.0 -
For maximal results, wear this while using it:0

If it vibrates I'd say it's worth the money...0

Not gonna lie I thought this was a neat idea, but that price tag... just no.

Wait what?! It's 150$?! I thought it's 30$ but now I see it's 5x payments of 30$ after looking again more carefully! Even for 30$ than would not be worth! 150$!!!! ARE THEY FKING CRAZY?!!!Resistance band = $6
Folding chair = $9
Chair Gym = $1500 -
The nice thing about the exercise chair is that i can use it with my vibrating sauna pants.
They go great together!0 -

Man she's got talent. If the chair can teach me to do that...IN! Because when I had a job like that I couldnt' even do that without spilling while WALKING.0
