Thread: Whatcha think of THIS machine?

I am in search of a good overall body workout machine. Its really hard for me, being a single mom with no help, to get to the gym so I just make do with my light weights and aerobics. I'm not achieving the buff look I want....so I saw this on TV last night and I'm really tempted to buy it. Only 200 bucks (four flex pays of 50) I figure I could do this each day for 30 to 45 minutes and get my cardio plus overall body workout in one sitting. I know that you hardcore body builders wouldnt have this machine, but think in terms of *small framed gal, wanting to achieve a lil' buff* Your expertizeeeeeee advice would most certainly be appreciated! Thank ya~
