My husband looked at many types of tree stands and has always purchased ladder tree stands in the past. When we moved and sort of forgot about taking his 4-5 tree stands with us (he would have had to go back and get them taking a whole day just to take them down and travel time because they were located in many different areas). He spoke w/ a friend who said that he had a Viper Climbing tree stand. We did some research on the internet and found the Viper brand to be the best value for your money. Keep in mind, you sometimes need to pay for quality! This has one of the best safety ratings out there....

As I started to age I found my health declining.  5 years ago on a whim I walked into a Chicago Fitness Store and ended up purchasing the Pacemaster Gold Elite.  It has 16 programs that make it easy for anyone to use - 4 Fat Burning, 6 Cardio & 6 Personal Trainer programs. 

I was never a runner or a jogger, but I am now.  In fact missing a day ruins my day.  With out the programs, on a less expensive model, I doubt I would be where I am today.  The Pacemaster Gold Elite makes sure with it's heart monitor, that my work outs are where they need to be, to be optimal for my goals and fat burn. ...

I bought this air mattress for when my boyfriend and I go camping in the fall. We used to use a different Coleman queen sized air mattress but decided we need a little bit more versatility with it. So we bought this 5 in 1 unit. We has issues with the extra space in the tent when the old air bed was inflated. But with this new mattress we can use it as a couch with arm rests, a queen sized bed or a double high twin bed! It inflates quickly but I had some difficulty deflating it because of the pivot points. After a little pushing to redirect the air, it was easy to fold up and put away. It didn't...

 I have ridden this bike everyday for the last four years for 35 minutes.  It has served me well.  During that time I have had to replace straps that hold my feet on the pedals twice and the back cushion once.  Each time I called the parts department at their main headquarters, and they were invariably helpful and nice.  Once they did not have the parts in stock, and there was a delay in getting them.  Another time they sent the wrong part even though I'd given them the correct number from the diagram in the instruction book.  They said to just keep the wrong part, and they shipped the right...

The ab lounge is lets see...how can I put this nicely...a piece of crap! It is basically a chair that is no different from any other. In fact, you are more likely to see results from getting up off the couch than with this thing. It is just another one of those as seen on tv ploys that never stand up to their claims.

We got this bike a few months ago for my daughter who is a huge Barbie fan. She really loved the fact that it comes with a miniature Barbie bike to attach to the handle bars so you can bring your doll with you. It was a bit of a hassle to put together but my husband finally got it all figured out. The colors on the bike are very pretty and girly and it looks even better in person. It came with some cheap plastic flower prints to put on the tires but those wouldn't stay on so we just trashed them. My daughter has yet to learn how to ride it yet and she is still a little short for it but she really...

Before I joined a gym, the Gazelle Edge was a good "get started".  I had never exercised before and have severe asthma.  This got me started.  I worked out on this during an hour-long TV show.  Once I had lost some weight and was comfortable with joining a gym, I really haven't used the Gazelle since.  Now that I've used a regular elliptical, the Gazelle Edge just doesn't getting me pumping the same.

I will admit that the digital timer/counter never worked.  And I decided it wasn't worth paying to ship it to be fixed.  It also squeaks (sometimes badly) when I'm working out with it.  If...

This computer game has allowed me hours upon horse of enjoyment. One of my favorite features from the game is the graphics. With their advanced graphics, you can play the game with a view from above the ice, or you can watch from ice level, as though you are a skater on the ice, providing a really realistic feel that puts you in the middle of an NHL hockey game. Also to note is the ability of playing as an AHL team. Being from Maine, we are home to only one professional hockey team, the AHL's Portland Pirates. It is intriguing to play the game as the Pirates and have a roster of players that...

I have had this treadmill for over two years now.  Never had one problem with it.  I would recomend it to anybody.

After my third child, I wanted a quick way to get into shape.  And after having a December baby, I wanted to be able to do some running and be indoors without having to go to a gym or club.  The answer was to buy a treadmill.  We looked at several stores in our town and found some that were reasonably priced but not many options.  They didn't have the automatic incline.  To have to stop and do it manually was not something I wanted to have to do all the time.  We finally came accross the one by Gold's Gym and I was quickly eager to buy it.  It was a purchase we never regretted.  I started...

I purchased this product used and it has been around a while, that is why the review.  I am very impressed with Weslo and its products.  This treadmill is in good condition and still runs as well as it did new.

This treadmill has an electric incline--at a touch of the button it wil allow you to choose the percentage of incline you want.  It also shows you how fast you are going--miles per hour, the number of calories you are burning and with the use of thumb sensors, it can tell you what your heartrate is.

This machine is sturdy and well built.  It is quite a large machine and takes up plenty...

We all have those days  when we just don't want to leave the house . That is why treadmills are great. Every one in the family can  use one. Sometimes when its raining you don't want to run but exercise is important and we need . Trust me i hate running in the raining and in the winter. My body cant handle  the cold so i run on the treadmill. t is super duper safe and if you have obese children this will get them exited and they too want to  work out. you can watch tv listen to music and even read a book while your not the treadmill because only your legs are moving not...

I PURCHASED A BOWFLEX TREADCLIMBER APPROX. 2 YEARS AGO.  THEY HAD 3 KINDS TO CHOOSE FROM.   A FAIRLY  EXPENSIVE ONE, A MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND A CHEAPER VERSION.  i PURCHASED THE MIDDLE ONE.  THEY ALL PRETTY MUCH WORK THE SAME. THERE ARE ONLY  A FEW DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THEM SO IT WASNT WORTH IT FOR ME TO PURCHASE THE MOST EXPENSIVE. IT HAD A FEW MORE GADGETS THAT I HAD NO INTENTIONS OF USING SO THE EXTRA SEVERAL  HUNDRED DOLLARS WASNT WORTH PAYING. IT STATES THAT IT WORKS BETTER THAN THE AVERAGE TREADMILL IN HALF THE TIME. I ABSOLUTELY AGREE.  I HAVE A REGULAR TREADMILL THAT I WORK OUT...

I recently bought this mat from Target, for only 40.00. At first i thought that was to much money to pay for a simple mat, but now i am convinced that it is worth it. This mat does exactly what it claims, saves the carpet and reduces some treadmill noise. Measure carefully! The mat was about 1/2 inch too narrow. We liked the quality and just decided to use it anyway. In the picture it looks brown but it is really black. My main concern about getting a mat was odor. But this one is pretty much odor-free. It is well worth the price. 

About a year ago I developed osteoarthritis in my hip.  I use to walk daily but that became very difficult to do. I didn't want to give up my fitness because I've always been one to stay in shape so I started shopping for a stationary bike that would help maintain muscle strength while not having a hard impact on cartilage.  I decided to purchased the Stamina bike because I liked that it was portable and I also liked that it had a gauge telling me how many miles I had biked, the time it took me, and the calories I burned.  It also has a resistance knob so I can make my biking more difficult...
