    ... not some gimmick that makes you look like you are tossing off a moose. :bigsmile:

    Thanx for that visual, I needed a good laugh today!

    i use it everyday... but i never log it bc you can't be burning calories or anything and i've seen a difference in my arms.. it's not something you can do and only do that to get results, but for me it was the extra little something that made the difference.. i also do zumba and use handweights or toning sticks during zumba..

    Wow thanks for all your comments!

    Reason I asked was i'm pretty sure one of my friends is getting this for my birthday present and I had major doubts about it (i've already got weights thats I use and don't need any more1) but I guess it's too late, I can't really turn around and ask them to take it back :oS.

    I guess what i'll do is try it out (even is it does look ridiculous!) and see how it goes.

    Thanks again! x

    I got mine as a gift too. But it was my fault because when they first came out I said I thought it looked cool. I thought it was battery operated and moved on it's own and you were supposed to try and hold it still. I still think something like that would be a good workout, but I suppose it might use a LOT of batteries. My 8 yo grandson likes to use it though so it's not a total loss. :ohwell:

    I think it's great that your grandson is enjoying it. Boys need to learn to work those muscles! :happy:

    Does the ShakeWeight reduce the instances of hairy palms and eyesight loss?

    I like the shake weight. I "feel the burn" a lot faster than with regular weights. I haven't used it consistantly enough to tell results. It must do something because I used it for 10 minutes last night and my arms are sore today. It's fun :)

    If
    Bus fare = $2.50
    and
    Shake Weight = $29.95
    I figure I should only have to use it 12 times to have it pay for itself. After that I think it would make a good conversation piece on the coffee table.
    I bet I could get my mother-in-law to knit a cozy for it that compliments the subtle hues in the drapes.
