FEB

2008

Quick View: I am a sucker for exercise gadgets. I have loads of them. Some are worthless and some actually work quite well. I saw the Easy Curves "thing" on TV late one night and, as usual, ended up ordering it. I was baited a bit by the low price because the shipping is more than the actual gadget but still, I think Easy Curves was worth the price I paid.

About the As Seen on TV Easy Curves

Easy Curves is a long plastic stick with padded hand grips and a resistance circle in the middle. There are six levels of resistance. The idea is to firm and lift the bust by using the resistance of pulling the the sliding part of the bar out and pushing it back in. There are 10 exercises you can do with the bar to firm the chest area and to lift the bust. I find it works my arms just as much as my chest. The claims are that the average woman's bust will go from 36.4" to 37.2" with five minutes a day usage over a 30 day period. The gadget is guaranteed and you can send it back within 60 days for your money back but the shipping and handling isn't returned so really, it isn't worth it. The bar cost only $9.99 but shipping is $12.83. I hate that.

Anyway, I didn't buy this to increase my bust size (really!), I bought it because I am in my 40's and EVERYTHING is less firm than it was 20 years ago and I am fighting gravity until the bitter end. You can firm the bust line with free weights doing butterflies and other exercises so this really isn't some kind of miracle gadget. However, I find it easy to do and challenging. I have the resistance set on 4 and do the exercises daily. I have only done this for about two weeks but I feel it not just in my chest area but my arms as well. And I do feel firmer. I don't have cantaloupe boobs but my chest muscles are getting stronger and firmer.

Note that this gadget (or ANY gadget) cannot actually make your bust larger. The increase comes from lifting and firming what you already have. I just wanted to make that clear because it is a tad misleading to say that your bust will enlarge. It will appear larger because it is lifted and firmer.

My Viewpoint

Easy Curves is an easy system that will help to firm the bust area and actually works the biceps as well. Anyone can do it. It's not complicated or very taxing. You can achieve the same results with weights and other exercises but this little gadget does do most of what it claims. I haven't measured myself and probably won't, but I am just looking to firm every part of my body and this helps. If I were you, though, I would wait until the gadget goes on sale at other websites and get it for less shipping. It comes to $22.82 with shipping. The actual gadget is only $9.99. I give this 4 stars but don't expect miracles, just a little "lift" where you need it.

UPDATE: July 13, 2008 - I continue to use this bar on level 6 and have seen an incredible change in my back and shoulder muscles as well as the tops of my shoulders, arms, and chest. I use it now for 20 minutes a day and have found new exercises to work the backs of my arms, biceps, and shoulders. It's still working fine. Just beware of the vitamin offer on the site. Cancel IMMEDIATELY when you receive your bar and you should be fine. The bar is still not selling in stores or on other sites but probably will be soon. I'll update when it does go mainstream.

UPDATE: March, 2009 - Still using the bar! I did note that, after so long, it seems like one side is easier to push in and out than the other. The company said this is 100% normal and will not affect anything but I bought another one just because it bugged me. See my new pic to see the definition that my arms have now. I have not done much else for my arms so I have to hand it to Easy Curves!

In response to pitcherday's comment from Nov 4, 2009 at 8:48PM:

I review almost every as seen on TV exercise gadget because I am keeping those people in business. I actually did say, "yeah right" when I saw the commercials but I tried it anyway. I still use it. But definitely call if you order and tell them outright that you can't take their vitamins, you're on a prescribed vitamin or something. That way, they won't sneak your "free" bottle and charge you for more. The bar itself is a good gadget. The vitamins are a pain to stop although they will stop them after a call or two. Heh, my arms look crazy in that last pic. I don't think I am that toned now. That was several months ago, I think, at "Hunk-A-Mania". lol lol.

When I see stuff like this, I always say "yeah, right." I didn't know you routinely review stuff like this, so YAY! If this gives you upper body definition/strength then I am on board for one! I could use some firming under the breast area, but really I am a total weakling so that would be the main attraction for me. If I want to buy anything exercise-related from the TV, I ALWAYS call the number, even though we are all so internet oriented these days. Fitness products almost always try to enroll you in a supplement or coaching program or whatever. I have found it much easier to talk to someone than risk accidentally clicking on something, or not getting a choice to opt out. Many "As Seen on TV" products try to rope you into things online that are easy to opt out of on the phone. I am checking this out though!

ps nice guns!

In response to rw1's comment from Jun 1, 2009 at 3:01PM:

As I mentioned in my review and also in these comments, you can call and order the bar WITHOUT the vitamins. Just call and say you're on prescription vitamins and can't take theirs and you just want the bar. They will send it to you with no vitamins. Until the bar is sold on other websites, I suggest anyone interested in it, do it that way to avoid getting vitamins, having to cancel, and possibly getting more even after that.

Do not buy easy curves. It is a scam if I ever saw one. They send you the bar and the essential boost, but they don't stop there. Once you order you are automatically enrolled in their so called "continuity program" meaning every month you are charged over $40 for their pills. The pills don't even work, and they automatically enroll you? Without your authorization? SCAM!!! Do not think of buying this product. I'm warning you before you even think about it.

In response to sigh's comment from May 23, 2009 at 11:46PM:

That's interesting. I wonder whatever happened to the Mark Eden device? This definitely does help lift and firm and works the arms. It's not a miracle but it does work the muscles under the breasts that help keep things where they should be!

Back in the late 60's there was a device called the Mark Eden Bust Developer. It consisted of two hand-type paddles connected at what would be the top of the fingers with a heavy duty spring between what would be the palms near the wrist. No one told me what my breast would look like after I nursed two children, so I tried the device, and now I still receive comments at the spa pool about how firm my breasts are. I am so glad someone came out with another invention! I'm going to get it tomorrow! And it can't help but build up your arms. I used my Mark Eden device for more than 10 years, replaced the springs at least twice, then could no longer find even a mention of it.

In response to dovey's comment from Mar 21, 2009 at 2:27PM:

Hahaha! I was at "HunkAmania" which was a ridiculous show of men running around in stuffed G-Strings begging for money. That guy asked if I wanted a picture when I really didn't but what could I say? I look in love when really, I just wanted to go home. lol.

In response to pitufanumber1's comment from Mar 21, 2009 at 2:36PM:

Hmmm....that's the one I called. That is the number you call to order. I wonder what's up with that? 1-800-956-7745 -- I just looked and they still don't sell the bar anywhere else. They do have an email contact page. You could try that but I am leery if the number doesn't work...

Do you have the number? I try calling the one on the website but it didnt work

good for you for sticking with this for so long!!! you look great! Can you order that random guy, because i think he would help me look better, too.!!

In response to pitufanumber1's comment from Mar 21, 2009 at 2:01PM:

When I made my second order (I used my first one so often that it felt weird after a while. See my added update.), I told them I was on prescription vitamins (which I am) and didn't want theirs. They sold me the bar and no vitamins. I suggest you call and order and tell them that you don't want the vitamins. I had no hard sell at all when I did that. They still aren't selling this bar anywhere else that I could find . Maybe ebay has some but I can't find it on other websites yet. Good luck!

Where can I get the same equipment (the stick) without having to buy vitamins? is there a way i can just completely avoid having to have the hassle of canceling the pills? Im going to check ebay but i want to know if there is another place for sure

In response to MrsNikkiC's comment from Oct 30, 2008 at 7:35PM:

The idea behind this little bar is to strengthen and build the muscles under the breasts which then help to lift them so I can see no reason why this wouldn't help you. You could use three or five pound weights and do butterflies (Stand with hands outstretched in front of you, then open arms so they are facing the walls on each site. Close and do again a million times.). That also works the pecs but I prefer Easy Curves because I can do it on the couch. lol.

I was curious if you all think this would be good for former nursing mothers. I was pregnant or nursing for 4 years straight and my breast have suffered, they are a little saggy I would love a little lift and firmness do you recommend?

Is there anyway i can get another sequence sheet? I can't find mine to save my life and I KNOW i put it away along with my bar. I have the bar but...yea ._.; I can't even find a site with the sequence on there. Dx

In response to lehmanm's comment from Aug 19, 2008 at 3:33PM:

Good luck! Let me know how it goes. :)

well i ordered one... so wish me luck that it helps me!!!

In response to lehmanm's comment from Aug 14, 2008 at 1:37PM:

That probably means that the arm with the one that sags most is weaker. You may want to try lifting a light weight every couple of days about 10-15 times to strengthen it. But yes, you can actually work harder on one side than the other. There are exercises that work just one side. If you get this, just do more of the exercises on your "bad" side and less on the firmer side. That should work to even things up. You can also call and ask their customer service department. They actually know a little about the product which is unusual with operators who take orders.

In response to kerianis's comment from Aug 13, 2008 at 8:11PM:

If I were you, I would keep the resistance down and get through all the exercises then move up. There's no rush and you don't want to end up sore. Hope all goes well for you. Firm them babies up! :)

ok i have a small but large problem, one of my boobs sags lower then the other, and its very noticable, do you think this will work for my chest??

i got mine today and even though I dance I realize I am really weak and out of shape in the open area. I did the first 5 minutes part A in #3 and i am sore lol I will keep you updated I guess I will stay in 5 minutes until I can increase at least to 4 lol Hope it works for me. I will ask you once I am getting firmer to show me other ones that I can do with the bar =)

In response to lfoste15's comment from Aug 12, 2008 at 4:41PM:

Hi there! Well the claims are that the bust will actually go up a half of an inch or so because you are lifting it up and out. But I really haven't seen any change in size that is that noticeable. My sister DID ask when I got big boobs yesterday and I was just wearing a tank top so... I don't think you will lose any size. I think, if you tend to sag a bit, you will see some lift and "perkiness". Smaller cups don't sag as much as larger ones so you're lucky in that way. If you have any excess fat around the back area (bra strap area), you can firm that up though. I guess depends on whether you feel you need a little lift or not. But don't worry that you will lose what you have. You have to do aerobics and lose fat to do that.

I haven't ordered Easy curves yet. I am really curious about it. I have a small bust (34 B) and I know that by adding muscle it burns fat so I do not need to lose any more fat on the bust area or do anything to make them seem smaller so do you girls think this product would be good for me to use? or do you think it will make them look smaller? Just wondering before I go through the trouble of wasting my time and money for something that doesn't work!!

In response to zee123's comment from Aug 11, 2008 at 7:09PM:

Hi. Nothing can really add size to the breast except fat/weight gain. This bar firms them so that they are lifted and may appear a little larger simply because they aren't sagging. I certainly didn't gain any boobage (I wouldn't have minded!) but what I have is firm and not saggy like many other almost 45 year old women's chests. So, I would say no, you won't get bigger, just firmer.

Hi! just want to ask one question? I have big boobs and I need to firm them, you think this bar will works for me, may be it makes them more big????

In response to CarlyMi's comment from Aug 10, 2008 at 10:19PM:

Certainly you can try the vitamins if you think they will help but I don't know of any vitamin that can target any area. They SAY they can but they can't. I take a woman's daily multi and Omega 3 and the bar is working just fine for me without the expensive supplements. Looking forward to your progress report. lol.

In response to kerianis's comment from Aug 10, 2008 at 5:48PM:

I lost three inches under my bust and I am a small person. I must have had a lot of "junk" around there! It can tone the upper back muscles and shoulder area. Everyone is different so some will see a lot of change and some not much. I think the bar can firm up that area though but you need to use it on a high resistance (4 to 6) to do it. You can also use 3 pound weights and stand up and open your arms to the side facing opposite walls then close the arms with work arms almost straight out in front of you. Those are butterflies and they work the chest and back area as well. Good luck!

In response to PattyTherre's comment from Aug 10, 2008 at 3:19AM:

yes, i notice a lot of the other areas toning up as well. It takes dedication, that's for sure. I'll do my workout without the vitamins then. Thank You Patty. I'll keep you updated on the progress. :)

In response to kerianis's comment from Aug 3, 2008 at 3:19PM:

thanks, I haven't gotten mine yet. I lost a lot of weight and they are saggy but still my arms are so big and fabby too. I lost a cup of fat and that is why they look bad =(

so I read that build and firm and lose the far around your chest but based on qhat I read here it helps arms too. But, what about the love handles in the back of the bra. Would it help for that too

looking forward to get it and start 5 then 10 and finish with 20 mins a day

In response to CarlyMi's comment from Aug 10, 2008 at 2:42AM:

It's great to see that someone else has had success! Watch the "back fat" disappear! I couldn't believe how that area toned up. The vitamins I don't think add much. If you take a good multi and eat well, you don't need their vitamins. I didn't even look at what was in them because I take my own. I'm sure they couldn't hurt but I doubt they will help. It's the physical work that does it. Let me know how you are doing after a few more weeks. :)

I order the easy curves online and to my surprise I got in the mail less than a week. I didn't pay for any special shipping either. The product works really well. I started on level 4 but now I am on level 6. I only had the product for two weeks now and i can see an improvement especially on the upper outer side of my breast. I had gain excessive weight and I had some of the fat flap. Very unflattering esp. in a bathing suit. With the easy curves, the flap is NO MORE. I been doing the sequence A, section 3 more during my workout since that's was a problem area.

At my first week, I started off with 5 minutes, as days progress I notice my muscles forming and i felt the muscle ache too. I was very happy to see actual resulted in just a few days. Now at my second week, My workout is now 15-20 minutes since i workout my tricep as well.

I haven't tried the vitamins supplements yet? has anyone tried it? What are your thoughts?

In response to kerianis's comment from Aug 3, 2008 at 3:19PM:

I do it 20 minutes a day on level six but had to build up. I don't think five minutes a day will do wonders but, if you concentrate and really isolate the chest muscles, you will see them working and you will get results eventually. I lost almost 3 inches from UNDER my bust which must have been fat. Gross. I went down a bra size around, stayed the same cup size. I experimented with different ways to use the bar. On the heavier resistance, putting the bar behind my head and pulling it up with one hand works the triceps. (You hold the bottom of the bar with one hand and pull the top part up with the other hand). It wasn't a huge and fast transformation but I did see changes and continue to. You will naturally tone your shoulders and back because of how you use the bar so eventually you will see that as you do it. I would do at least 10 minutes a day building up resistance so it isn't TOO hard but a challenge. It's so easy that you can do it while watching TV. Do it slow and really isolate the chest muscles. That will get you faster results. I now added modified push ups because my arms got stronger and those are great for the chest and arms. The bar gave me the strength I needed to do the push ups. Good luck. I hope you see and feel results fast. But they ship slowwwwwwwww. Be patient.

i just ordered one. I used to have great chest but lost a lot of weight and now my pride and joy lol needs good bra to look amazing. I called and if you order over the phone you dont need to order the vitamins. Have a question. Does 5 minutes everyday will really do wonders? What about my triceps? You said that you found more exercises that now is 30 mins a day. Where did you find them? Any tips to expedite my results? I want to be great and ready for Halloween =)

In response to jessilou0515's comment from Jul 30, 2008 at 2:32PM:

The only place selling the bar is still the official site: http://www.easycurves.com.
You will get vitamins with your order and you have to call ASAP to cancel and all should be well. You may want to call and see if you can order without the vitamins if you don't want to try them. This isn't a miracle bar but it sure did define my shoulders, back, upper arms, and, yes, even my chest. lol.

where can i or how can i purchase one.

In response to bobear345's comment from Jul 13, 2008 at 2:24AM:

Not yet but give it a little while and it will start showing up at certain stores. I was looking to see if it would be ordered anywhere else and it can't be yet. After the newness wears off, it will be selling on other sites and at stores like TJ Maxx and maybe Wal-Mart. It's better to get it elsewhere because the site now pushes vitamins and it's a hassle to cancel them. Too bad because the actual bar is really great. My shoulders and back muscles are amazingly defined because of the bar and my arms are more defined. Chest is lifted but not bigger (I lost body fat from working out and naturally lost some there. Sigh.). If they start selling this at stores, I will post it here and let you know.

i would just like to know, is this product available at a drug store such as CVS or Walgreens? because i would rather not have to order it and wait for it if i need it before a certain date.

In response to chiminin's comment from Feb 21, 2008 at 9:30PM:

I did it again! I must double click. Well, to add to my last comment (I duplicated it by mistake and am now editing the second one), perhaps people should wait until Easy Curves is sold on other sites before purchasing. It looks like the official site isn't too stable at this point and I don't want anyone getting ripped off because I recommenced a product.

In response to chiminin's comment from Feb 21, 2008 at 9:30PM:

I think it's new and suddenly they are getting more orders than they can handle. I had no problems at all with shipping. I ordered, it came in about a week. I hate to see companies that aren't prepared for the onslaught when they do infomercials end up getting all messed up and ruining their reputations. Leg Magic is like that. I read terrible things about the site so I bought my machine off the official site and am very pleased. Meanwhile people are still complaining about the official Leg Magic site. Thank you for that info. I had no idea there were issues with the shipping and such now. I guess I was an early adopter or just lucky!

In response to hottyboombleoty7's comment from Mar 26, 2008 at 11:57AM:

Oops,I double posted the comment. I can't delete this one so...please read my other comment and disregard this non comment. lol.

In response to hottyboombleoty7's comment from Mar 26, 2008 at 11:57AM:

Hi! I didn't have any option of buying pills or anything when I ordered this. I think they started that about a week after I ordered because when I sent my sister there to buy one, she said she didn't like the fact that she had to buy vitamins. I went and looked and now they are offering supplements and I am glad I dodged that bullet. Thank you for all that info and whoever is reading this, please heed hottyboombleoty7's warning if you order Easy Curves from their official website. It will be available on other sites soon, I am sure. Thanks again for the stopping by and letting us all know about this. It is very informative.

The product is decent, but what you have to worry about is the pills. If you want to pay the 20 some dollars a month for them then your ok but if you don't want them then you have to call and cancel them. I cancled them in Feburary and my money was refunded now in March I noticed I was billed again which put me over my card limit. I called the number on the website to cancel and also my bank which is who my card is through. They told me to call the billig number which is 8001234567.... now really read that number does it look bogus well thats because it is. I called it to make sure it was cancelled and a recording comes up saying "I cannot process your call at this time" and I have tried several times. So I called the costumer service number again and was verified that I am now cancelled, but the product was already shipped so I have to waite for the product to get here and I have to ship it back before I can be refunded. Now I have to file a unauthorized charge and cancel my card and waite for a new one to come. so warning for all if you want to cancel the pills call verify and make sure you have proof it's cancelled that may make things a little easier for you.

Please check out the better business bureau site before ordering easy curves. I order one and 2 months later they still haven't shipped it. They tried refunding a portion of the price I paid less shipping but I never received it and don't try calling there. The people that answer will tell you anything they think to apiese you. Instead of saying the order is backorder for several weeks they will tell you they are shipping it. 3 weeks later when you don't have it they tell you some other line.

In response to LadyMagic's comment from Feb 16, 2008 at 3:35PM:

I have tried EVERYTHING! There were no precautions for people with disabilities but, as with everything, you need to take into account what your disability is. I have a bad neck and, if I do crunches, I pay big time in neck pain even though others have no problems. Hand weights, sure I tried them. I prefer weighted balls to weights because they are easier on the hands and versatile.To firm the chest though, you would need fairly heavy weights and to do butterflies which is a hard exercise for many people. This method is much easier for me to do.

In response to LisaCarey's comment from Feb 15, 2008 at 11:17AM:

Haha, my favorite book as a kid was "Are You There, God? It's Me Margaret" where she tries to increase her bust. I was flat as a board until I had kids! Now I am content to just keep them from sliding down. lol.

In response to Jo's comment from Feb 15, 2008 at 9:56AM:

It is brand new. I thought it would be junk but it's a decent little gadget!

Good review. Did you try the small hand weights. If so, which do you prefer. I know what you mean about the age thing..sigh...Were there any warnings or cautions with itor advice for people with disabilities using it?

i feel old now, i remember when it was just we must increase our bust . . . now we gotta firm it too! ;-D

Interesting - this is a new one for me. Jo

In response to PattyTherre's comment from Feb 14, 2008 at 4:52PM:

I admit we don't have as much to worry about. ;-o

In response to LaurieM's comment from Feb 14, 2008 at 6:58AM:

You should try it. It's pretty cool and easy. But then Jason or Justin will be using it as a sword. Trust me, I know. Chris was doing that last night saying he was the Knight of Chestorials.

In response to williampinn's comment from Feb 14, 2008 at 3:01AM:

A bra makes them APPEAR firmer. Then you take it off. And they hit the ground. False advertising. This actually does lift them. A little. I'll pass on the boob weight lifting. The thought makes me cringe, kinda like when guys think of getting kicked in the nether regions. lol.

In response to kid-kansas's comment from Feb 13, 2008 at 9:23PM:

You men have it SO easy! :-P

When you are all lifted -- send the gadget my way would ya!

I would imagine a bra could make breasts appear firmer, also. My cousin made her's bigger by tying weights to them and stooping over just 20 minutes a day for 30 days.

Would be great if I had any too worry about ;) if mine start sagging I am in big trouble...lol I am a bit lopsided though....lifting 12 oz at a time with my right hand....maybe I need too even it out and go left handed for a while ;) Great review Patty!
