Stamina Pilates Magic Circle with Workout Video

Compared to other magic circles I priced, the highest at $59(!), this is a good value.

The video demonstrates the exercises adequately enough, but set your expectations low. It does not meet the production standards of bigger name competitors: Gaiam, The Firm, Turbo Jam, etc...

Obviously shot on video, the copy I received contains poor resolution and jumps throughout. It is servicable for people like me, who only need to see the exercises demonstrated once. It is not intended for use as a classroom-style workout.

Seems well made..I think I can use this better than weights..more isometric. I only gave 4 stars because I wish it had a booklet or chart with excercises..you have to watch video..which would be ok for most I guess. Anyway, I don''t think I wasted my money.

I am disappointed with the handles on the ring. they are very hard. I am used to soft rubber handles, like I use in our gym..

This short review is only about the fitness ring, not the DVD. I have a lot of respect for isometric exercises. They''re safe and, if done correctly, effective. They can offer a better workout than weights and can be done in far less time.

I find this ring to offer a powerful workout that you can really feel. You feel it when you do it and afterwards. It can be used to work just about all muscle groups. I even use it to effectively work my hamstrings and gluts. These are overlooked areas that need as much development as any other muscle group --especially if you want pain-free knees.

When selecting a ring, you want to choose one that will withstand your weight. If you''re strong, you want a strong ring because you want a good workout and you want a ring that will last. You also want good padding.

I find the ring lots of fun and excellent exercise --far better than weights. I do not do palates.

Highly recommended.

Like a lot of non-studio quality equipment, this ring is an improvement on the original: instead of having screws and bare metal on the inside of the ring, it has padding. If you are going to do Pilates exercises with feet and ankles on the inside of the ring, you need one more like this.

The video is good for the exercises--it had things I had not learned in my professional teacher training course. However, don''t plan on watching it more than once, unless you like cable access production values.
